    Dirrell is fighting scared against punchers, did so against Stevens and did so against Froch, will run against Arthur.

    Only thing is, Arthur has the ability to catch up with people, even if they're running.

    Arthur mid-late KO.

    Dirrell likes to stay just out of reach of his opponent then with his fast feet and hands, steps in and jabs. While AA likes to stay just within his opponents reach, and feint alot, then gets in the inside then attack.

    Dirrell would be forced to multiply his jab more, and AA has enough strength and his high guard is good enough to block and counter. One thing AA is good at is them short hooks in the inside. Dirrell would be forced to fight Abrahams fight and thus after a 50/50 4-6 rounds, AA wins by a late KO rounds 10-12.

    I like Abraham in this fight. He's said it's better to die in the ring than lose, and coming from him, I believe it. He went to war with Edison Miranda and fought most of their first fight with a nasty broken jaw, and then KO'd the **** out of Miranda in the second fight.

    Abraham has the power to get anyone out of the ring early, and mixed with his good boxing IQ, his decent hand speed (faster than people think), and his heart, I think he'll put Dirrell away somewhere in the middle rounds.

    Dirrell has all the skills and athleticism you could want, but I don't think he has the mental aspects in check to be able to beat the top competition at 168.

    Thats what I'm saying lol. If Abraham fights Dirrell like he did Taylor .. I don't see how that will favor him. What will happen is he'll fall into a big hole, and go head hunting after Dirrell.

    Though, I expect to see alot of body punches from Abraham. Hell, thats how I would beat someone as quick and mobile as Dirrell.

    Whelp, I hate to say it (no not really) but I told you so. Up until the DQ, Dirrell put on a boxing clinic. I wish it didn't end in a DQ, but it was clearly illegal.

    For those that believe Dirrell was acting, take a seat on the canvas and let someone hit you clean like that ... let us know how it feels. :)
