Andre Dirrell: Running or Boxing?

Running.

 

More running than boxing. Paulie is pretty boring too but he doesn't take leaps and bounds when he circles away from his opponents.

 

Running!

 

def. running! I watched the fight with the Ethiopian national marathon team and the were like "damn"!!!

 

running..he looked like he was fighting scared. I can't believe people say Paulie fought the same way and got praised.

WRONG, Paul MOVED and boxed effectively and would stop to throw a 4-5 punch combination whereas Andre Road Runner just ran and threw 1 punch at a time and looked like a ****ing idiot.

 

You know most boxers never get to fight on HBO.You would think that given the chance Dirrell would have wanted to shine to get further dates with HBO.With how loud the crowd booed Dirrell I don't think you will see Dirrell on HBO for a long time.

 

A bit of both.. I think Larry Merchant said it best.. to paraphrase "Dirrell believes in hit and don't be hit, but prefers the don't get hit part much more than the hitting part"


Also don't forget this was a huge step-up fight for Dirrell, and getting the win is the most important thing right now in only his 12th fight.

 

trust me, you don't want to see it.

 

Harold Lederman called it the worst fight he has ever seen

 

That **** gives new meaning to the term running!! I have never seen no **** like that before. Then get to watch the next bout with ref. Cotton yelling "stop, stop, stop, stop" everytime Ndou got close to Malignaggi. Ndou's only chance with that ref was to outbox Paulie from the outside (which couldn't happen with Paulies hand speed)

 

Not the worst fight ever, not even close.

We need a hyperbole ban on this site.

 

of course its boxing but the difference is

Malignaggi showed what the sweet science is all about
Dirrell showed what the sweet science isnt.

 

i said the same thing last night.....its not like it was hbos biggest card ever, he should have taken a chance and maybe put his name out there a little more to the casual fan
