And Dirrell knows it :deal Dirrell is no good on the inside and Ward is just too smart and too well rounded for him. Mismatch. I don't buy the Dr. Shaw-High story. Dirrell wanted more money to get exposed and that's why he pulled out. I think he even said himself that the money wasn't right.
thats why dirrell bitched out. he talked all that **** about being friends when none of that even mattered to the SOG, Ward was ready and willing to beat brain damage boy.
I don't think so bro, Dirrell is a slick fighter, I would see a lot of holding by Ward though as thats how he fights when the going gets rough, but I can see Dirrell out boxing him on the outside, as he is faster. both have great defense. You have got to remember this. Dirrell gave Froch a fight(although messy) for 12 rounds, this is fighting a world champion for his first fight in super 6( some people felt he won or a least a draw), when he had fought no names up to that point, then he goes on to dominate Abraham. I mean who didnt jump for joy when he put Arthur on his ass. I understand there is a lot of haters on here but you have to admit the man is skilled. I hope he gets well and can return to the ring as it is not easy to defeat him.
It goes about 5 rds then Dirrell fakes being dizzy and gets the docotr to stop the fight after a Ward headbutt.
Dirrell hits HARDER and has FASTER feet and hands. Very good jab too. It would be a hard fight for Ward.
It would be Ward's toughest fight. Ward thrives on the straight-foward, straight-up Euro-style of Kessler and Abraham. Dirrell would bring a lot of movement and comparable hand speed. I'd still pick Ward, as he is the more complete fighter, but it wouldn't be an easy fight for him.
Dirrell is pretty one dimensional and Ward is too smart and would force him to fight his fight. I think he makes it an easy affair and might even get Dirrell to quit on his stool. Dirrell can move but Ward knows how to get inside and Dirrell looks off balance when he's moving too much. Dirrell doesn't have a chance. It's not even the hardest fight for Ward in the division, that's Bute.
Dirrell one dimensional? then how did he give froch hell and dominate abraham by being one dimensional? Think before you speak.
