    BTW, What do you think of Froch's chin? His last three fights have been step-ups in competition and he has been buzzed in all of them. I think his chin is GREATLY overrated.

    lol I see you in EVERY thread about Dirrell spouting ****, but never with anything to back up your opinion.

    Andre, is that you?

    I agree that he looked like that.

    Because of immature tactics and being somewhat scared to engage. However, Dirrell has as much natural ability in his little toe as Ruiz has in total.

    IF Dirrell grows up he will be in an entirely different class than Ruiz.

    although I do not always agree with raphael-actually agree less than more- he is on point with dirrell. It was one of the most pathetic displays of hear t I have ever seen in a major bout. he fought scared, and it cost him.

    I think Dirrell won but what he did before the championship rounds just made that fight so very ugly (we can't really blame Froch, we all know Froch's style is butt ugly, but at least he makes up for it with sheer aggression).

    Hopefully comments like these will make Dirrell change his gameplan. He has enough speed and skill I think to be more aggressive.

    I agree with everything he says and there is some merit to what he is writing anyone who cant see it is simlpy biased.

    It is an insult to talented fighters like Dirrell to be compared with a no-talent fraud like Ruiz.

    Sure is. I wish he would use that talent to fight a little bit, so we wouldn't be so tempted to make those comparisons. That fight was a ****ing disgrace.

    The truth is that Dirrell held a lot. I would not have been outraged if the referee had disqualified him.
