Andre Dirrell Ring IQ

From the outside quite decent, not to sure when its get rough up close, can he hang and bang.

 

decent with some glaring flaws.

He's not too good at feinting and drawing or ring generalship overall, and he makes some technical mistakes that are just terribly ******ed(running away from the ropes with your hands above your head like in the froch fight). I personally think it's a lack of experience and confidence, he needs to learn to stay busy and come out blazing otherwise he will faulter

 

Probably somewhere between 85-127.33

 

not great

he uses his physical attributes to cover it up though, his off balance alot of the times, footwork not great (but very fast), doesn't know how to infight and hates it when things go tough.

now ward on the other hand has the ring IQ equivalent to a scientist.

 

:deal

Basically. He just uses his above average speed to get himself out of trouble, but sooner or later a better fighter will clock him silly, or even a lesser fighter will see one of his openings and make him pay dearly. He isn't RJJ levels of fast, just a solid deal quicker than the rest.

 

hes very unconventional, he reminds me of a young pacquiao.

 

He doesn't hit hard enough, and he doesn't have any really polished weapons like Pacquiao does. If he did I think he would be a different class of fighter. I think it would be specifically to AD's benefit to get a sunday punch of some sort, every good fighter has at least one. Dirrell tries too many things and isn't really as talented at everything as he thinks he is

No purpose at all, it's a terrible habit and one of the reasons why Dirrell gets knocked down and slips a lot...

 

no i think he hits hard, he knocked abraham down and stunned froch and i compared him to young pacquiao because of the way both use/used natural talent to fight.

dirrel would do good changing trainers.

 

Pacquiao uses his talent wisely, though. He has way better balance and combinations, he optimizes his physical advantages perfectly(he could fight inside better and use better head movement though). I actually think Roach would be an amazing trainer for Dirrell, he would shine Dirrell's combinations and give the guy a legitimately great offense and raise his strength at the same time

 

im not talking about pacquiao now, im talking about the undeveloped 1-2-fall all over the place pac.

 

wow, everyone already covered Dirrell quite well lol....
where's those Dirrell fanatics at?

 

I don't judge Direll wiseness in the ring , but his hearth!

Direll is gifted as hell, but can he deal with it ? I'm not sure he got the mind to deal with is gifted talent!

 

I agree, He uses that big old nogging of his to hurt his opponents rather than his fists :deal
