    That was my first thought when I saw that the two of them were in this thing. too young too unproven. When it comes to those two you just really dont know. Im not worried about who thier biggest wins came vs, that isnt important when you look at boxing as a whole. Most fighters face a step up fight, a fight in which they beat a fighter that is better then everyone they have faced to that point. So saying that thier biggest win came vs this guy who only beat that guy or lost to the other guy really has nothing to do with the supermiddle classic.

    I think that Ward is more suited and ready for the fight in a whole. Dirrell I think will lose a couple of fights, he seems to have more upside then Ward but I think that his people made a bad move putting him in. I have said all along that the winner of Kessler vs Ward will win the whole thing and I really believe that.

    I let him pollute my reading too long. I don't have time for idiots like this. Let him pool with the other trolls.

    Yes i am saying that Dirrell is MUCH FASTER than Taylor (and Carl couldn't even cope with him for most of the fight), couple that with his southpaw stance and IT'S A DIFFERENT BALL GAME, but no doubt you'll disagree!! :roll: .

    Fine line between having a protected resume and being moved along at the proper pace. With a fighter like Pavlik you can go to boxrec and see exactly where his handlers decided either he was ready or not and started moving him up. SMW is hard right now though because it is pretty loaded. You can't wait too long but even the second tier is pretty tough.

    Yeah, I've just established that Hermit's a jackass. I even gave the jackass the benefit of the doubt, but his unstoppable will to be a jackass prevailed.

    Yes, and at 168, just below the Bika and Andrade types you have Zuniga, Oganov, Green, Miranda, et. Those guys only lost to good fighters.

    These guys are stepping up which has to happen at some point, but it is a huge step-up. I can see the logic in a way from a promoter's standpoint. They could have stepped up and been beaten by one guy, but with this set-up, they get at least 3 fights, so all is not lost if they lose right away.

    In as much that too be MUCH FASTER than Taylor he would do his body injury by tearing muscle from the bone.

    Like when I explained the physics behind the bionic man to my son. Even if his bionic parts could jump off a 5 story building, his non bionic parts would still be in a bloody pool on the ground.
