Why does Andre Dirrell act like a wimp when he's in with hard hitters?

    Vs Abraham and Froch he did this. He gets hit and takes a "slip" or complains about a shot. He only does this against guys who can hit hard. What's up with him? I don't think he wants to be a boxer tbh. I can't blame him, as boxing is for the real tough guys who don't mind getting hit now and then.

    He looks elite class when it's all one way,has superb skills could have been a popular champ......but skills don't equal toughness and Andre is so mentally weak

    He's made of mental jelly.

    When the going gets tough, Dirrell rivals DiCaprio.

    The most likely explanation is that he isn't too keen on being hit really hard in the face.

    He isn't calm. He doesn't have a bad chin, but he panics when hit. He's not a natural fighter

    Don't forget the holding:
    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fztqCbOUiTY&feature=youtube_gdata_player"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fztqCbOUiTY&feature=youtube_gdata_player[/ame]

    Faked injury against Abraham 'cause he was too scared to be in the ring with him for another six minutes. Man has no heart. None. The Demon is right; Dirrelevant looks great when he's overmatched but just doesn't have the mental fortitude to stay cool and more importantly to stay on his feet. Still his few remaining butthurt fans cry over his wasted prime, knowing that even a retired former cricketer has been more relevant to boxing in the last two years than Dirrell has. Tragic.

    go watch the whole fight and tell me Dirrell did not win atleast 7

    when froch's girl was like 'his running like a ******', blatantly..

    then Dirrell had tough guy froch back pedaling like a ***** at the end of the 10th.

    Ever since this fight, Froch wants to fight in Nottingham, as he knows he won cause of biased judging. now his like he Ward, come nottingham.

    revenge in denmark or wherever he traveled to get beaten by the Viking Kessler.
