How long would Dirrell have to be sidelined for you to admit it's legit

Yep, he should take care of his brain, so no running anymore...

 

Again, for those in the cheap seats, legit or not it's ridiculous to not ask questions.

1: March 28th. Dirrell gets the all clear, results negative from a full check up.
2: No reports of nausea, sickness, headaches, dizziness, more hospital visits for 6 1/2 months.
3: September. Dirrell is quoted saying he doesn't want to fight his buddy Ward, soon does a u-turn when Showtime say they'll sue his ass.
4: Without ONE sparring session Dirrell now has neurological issues.


For **** sake ask the question!!

 

At least 2 years.

 

1. He stands to lose more money in the long run adding another L to his record.

2. It was a bloody clip to the jaw, not temple.

3. Showtime may very well persue that course of action but then they may have had a rethink, letting him sit it out and fight others in the future will generate more $$$ in the long run and could build a monster fight with Ward in the future.

 

Like this thread says, those above questions/points will pretty much be answered by Dirrell's next move. If he's back in the ring within the next few months, then yes, something strange was definitely up.

Pulling out of a very rewarding tournament all because you don't want to fight your best friend, is an excessive move to make, and one that wouldn't be made without good reason.

 

Those are serious problems if they are true. Not fighting at all would probably be the wisest choice then. But the guy has no other way of making a living, so I'm sure he'll come back pretty soon. Either way, it is a lose lose situation for Dirrell. Most people didn't like him before, even less will now.

 

Here's a fair test: let an independent doctor examine Dirrell's condition right now, and examine him when he wants to come back. If Dirrell's condition will be the same, it either means he didn't recover of his symptoms, or was lying, either way, if there's no change in test results between now and then, he should not be allowed to fight. And if his tests show improvement, it means his issues were legit but were put behind, so he should be allowed to fight. Fair, no?

 

I'm no expert but "neurological problems" don't just get better, your brain gets damaged it doesn't repair, your brain works ways to "work around" the problem. If you're lucky enough to have this sort of rehabilitation why would you risk damaging the new pathway made by your brain to compensate the previous damage?

 

I would question which Doctor checked Andre-
Dirrell's Doctor or Showtimes Doctor?In any event,he will be well advised NOT to fight until the Stupid 6 is over,or he will have the fight of his life in court with Showtimes bevy of lawyers.:deal

 

Who does Dirrell fight though if/when he fights again? Reckon people will buy it to see ***** boy get whopped if they stick him back in with AA? Now people know he doesnt have a heart they will seek and destroy him. I'm not talking about the result because that's been done to death but he fought intimidated against Froch, you think Carl wouldnt use that and whats happened now if they rematched? Doesn't deserve Bute, won't fight Ward, maybe he'll experience weight loss issues and take on Paulie M at Welter? I'd be picking Paulie, say what you want about the kid, he's got more heart than Dirrell could dream of.

 

forever.

 

He should retire. He has not been touched that hard in his career so his tolerance level for damage is not good at all. Leave with your health, but I have this feeling he won't. Damaged goods.

 

As long as it took AA to windup and lay a huge shot right on AD jaw while AD was knelt down.

 

1 year and 2 months

 

Bleach his skin white and change his name to Andrel Dirrellovksi and I'll believe that n-word.
