Dirrell has the talent to outbox GGG with his solid jab and movement but when's the last time he actually showed up and fought to his potential?
Speaking of Dirrell, what is this guy doing? He is literally throwing away millions of dollars by not fighting. What a sad waste of talent. Throwing away his prime years.
very inconsistant. I didnt notice until i started the thread that AD has not shown that from in 3 years. It is probably over for him.
I saw shades of Roy Jones in the Dirrell/Abraham fight the way he was just completely controlling Abraham at times with his hand and foot speed.
i agree. He really put it together in that fight. His jab was so sharp and his movement was just right, unlike the froch fight.
Dirrell will get underrated here since half the forum has GGG's nuts in their mouth and Dirrell is a ***** who doesn't seem interested in boxing anymore
Man, Dirrell gets a lot of **** and I've thrown my fair share at him but being honest a lot of it is out of damn frustration. I like many of you see such an abundance of talent in this guy, if he added his name back to the top end of the SMW there would be plenty more fun match ups there but he just seems to not really be doing anything. I think what happened in the AA fight must have ****ed up his boxing mind, whether he got hit hard or was genuinely knocked out etc is beside the point at this stage, that fight did something to him and he just doesnt seem to want it as much any more. I really hope I'm wrong, I'd love to see him on form fight a big name again. As for this fight, atm I got to take GGG for obvious reasons but Dirrell certainly has the skills and natural talent to win the fight, but is the head there? Triple G is on a murder spree atm.
Dirrell would be walked down by Golovkin IMO. He'd box well to start but no one except maybe Ward can do it for 12 except GGG. Do it for 4-6-8. Maybe then.
