Andre Dirrell-Victor Oganov: 02/11/08 Andre has been so impressive so far. He has stepped up really fast and the Hanshaw win was a huge win so early in his carreer. Now he is fighting KO-fighter Oganov in another interesting fight. This guy is gonna be on everyone's lips before we know it.:bbb Thoughts?
him dawson and ward will be going at it soon enough I hope to see who really is the best youmg fighter at that weight
Ward and Direll are likely to have a showdown in the future. Dawson however is much taller guy and is unlikely unlikely to meet. Dawson is as tall as David Haye.
Anyone knows why he is being moved so relatively fast, while for instance Ward is being paced much more so far?
Hes in the wrong division. He doesn't have the power to cement himself, with the big guys, E.G Kessler.
overall, I agree dirrell has the tools, amazing speed too, but he needs to step up soon against some former champs to prove what he is made of....and also get his chin tested. I expect him to win tomorrow, and hope that he doesnt run like he did against stevens
I have NO problem with Dirrell's competition after 16 fights. Hanshaw/Paschal/Oganov (assuming he wins) is a perfectly good stretch for his level of development.
Mendy's best result arguably came with the draw against Hanshaw in the tournament final. Direll went in there and stopped Hanshaw - something that Mendy (nor Roy Jones Junior for that matter) was capable of doing. Highly impressive.:bbb
