    It wasn't on my radar that Andre Dirrell was a full blown LHW now. Granted he didn't want to face the other Andre (Ward) during the S6, they're ok as one fights on PBC and the other one is the Duke of HBO.

    However, with Andre Dirrell being @ LHW comes potential fights with Stevenson, Beterbiev, Fonfara and (unfortunately) Campillo.



    Anyone up for Beterbiev-Dirrell? :hey

    Dirrell would bring a lot of good to the LHW division. It needs more slick speedy guys and less caveman feet hobbling around.

    I think so, but he will need to be more boxer than ever before. His power is not great at SMW. LHW would be a challenge for him.:good

    Yeah Blake C moved down to SMW. He weighed 166¾ for his last outing.

    Dirrell is a decent fighter when he actually boxes. If he had boxed the entire fight against DeGale he would have easily got the decision.

    LHW division going to be the shetza! More staked talent is going to be there than even the welterweight division.
