    "60, 68, and 75, I want everybody!"

    What makes Dirrell think a) he can make 160 or b) he can take a light heavyweight punch?

    Note: Vladine Biosse coming in 172lbs tonight doesn't count as a light heavyweight, and he never really hit Dirrell with an earnest punch anyway.

    if you say so, hoss. watching a dirrell brother is boring enough but one of them against a guy that got the **** kicked out of him just a few weeks ago, and has a habit of getting beaten up is low standard for most of us. :dead

    How can you guys not like/support Andre? :-(

    Exceptionally talented, could you imagine if he was one of ours? :lol: The hype would be unreal.

    Dirrell is a problem for anyone at super middleweight, including Andre Ward.

    He never beat Froch and there was nothing to "expose" about Arthur Abraham. :yep It was pretty clear all along how limited he was.

    He lost to or the least had a draw with Froch.

    That's my point it was a crack against Love and even Callum Smith, even though they are both good prospects they are so far away from the top of the division, that even Dirrell coming out of his semi retirement, and easily outperforms both of them.

    Surprised he did not call out GGG directly like he did a few months ago. I was actually half expecting him to. If he meant "60" not "68" I guess he did indirectly, was hard to tell it seemed he backtracked a bit.

    No, Ward was always better and I thought so before the Super Six.

    (I see their dynamic as very similar to Bradley & Alexander: the faster and more athletically gifted one with the more amateur style, Alexander/Dirrell, serving as stylistic foil to the slower and lighter-hitting but more versatile, all-around solid, cerebral, hard-working, acutely-conditioned, do-less-with-more type in Bradley/Ward...)

    He said all three weights. He wants the best from middle to light heavy, the kook. :nut

    Yeah I agree I'm not a big Dirrell fan, but Michael Farenas vs Mark Davis isn't exactly must see TV for a lot of fans with Billy Dib on the undercard. ESPN usually has average to below average fights, this is normal for them.

    Atlas is having a nervous breakdown arguing with himself over whether he loves Golovkin or considers him a padded-record fraud who stacks up poorly in historical match-ups. :lol:
