    Dirrell did look every bit as bruised as novice Groves did

    Right now in all honesty... yeah.

    Dirrell will be rusty as ****, my opinion might change if Dirrell actually starts fighting.

    Fresh Groves has the footwork to cause fast fighters like Dirrell, all kinds of problems

    LOL! Here is some actual quotes from the sparring


    Dirrell had this to say about Groves after the sparring session in an interview at Sky Sports: “I do hold back at times because he’s green. He has 10, 12 fights. You know he has a lot of flaws.”

    And Groves trainer called Dirrell amazing. Yeah Dirrell got a black eye sounds like some excellent sparring in Miami that week

    Yes Groves has great footwork. Needs to set his feet when throwing more

    Either you're trolling, loveblind or just plain stupid, and I'm not sure which it is. Statements like that are EXACTLY what one would EXPECT to hear coming from a training camp. Dirrell trying to compliment himself by saying he's actually better than he showed in the sparring, and the Groves camp paying compliments to Dirrell so that their own fighter looks better by association. It's kid stuff, really. :patsch

    You have to take things said with a pinch of salt, even if Dirrell got knocked out he would say he's holding back.

    Dirrell is a very good boxer, no body denies that, just most people think he will achieve nothing.

    Except Groves trainer said amazing. Specifically calling him a special fighter with Dirrell saying he had to hold back an carry Groves with Groves camp not saying he is wrong.

    But whatever makes you sleep better at night knowing that Froch and Burns are your best champions. :lol:

    Booth could have said Dirrell was the second coming, but it would still mean **** all. You can't actually be this ****ing stupid, surely?!?

    Cowering from the question behind insults. Make a decent thread for once in your life.
