    I can't respond to the whole post as I am writting from a mobile dev and I find it difficult. only here to talk about me wishing Dirrell's death. I never said that. I just said that I wouldn't give a **** if this happens. Big difference, right?
    Do you give a **** that Victor, a 96 years cousin of my father's aunt, has cancer? I thought so. But do you wish for him to die?

    I'm of the opinion that Dirrel, Ward's very close friend, sat out of the s6 as to avoid the fight with Ward.
    Just IMO...he was still under contract with Showtime, and still apart of the s6. Had he returned to the ring before the tournament ended, having not been eliminated, he was actually open to legal action.

    Not saying that a major tv network or promoter has ever sued one of their athletes:think for breach of contract.:-(

    Funny though, that a week after the tournament is over, he's right back in action, shaking off the rust.

    I don't buy the injury, but I still don't think he quit because he doesn't have heart. :deal

    At any rate......Dirrel 120 107 UD over Kessler with a nice Abraham like flash KD to excite the crowd.

    For those that still believe AA didn't land. Watch the last angle of the KO. Dirrell's head only stops when it hits his freaking shoulder. That was a full 90 degrees.

    Will probably not happen, but I would bet on Dirrell at this stage. If he takes a few more tune-ups.

    Dirrell is undefeated in my book btw :deal

    Lol at my fellow Danes in this thread, for not having the balls to insult people in English :lol:

    Dirrell boxes and runs circles around Kessler. All night. Kessler has trouble landing the right with a southpaw who moves to his left, as he becomes a touch too predictable and Dirrell can counter. Dirrell fights so negatively this would almost be a variation on Froch-Dirrell, with Kessler struggling to establish the right range so to follow the jab with crosses. Dirrell outlands him by a fair margin, but Kessler ends up throwing a lot more.

    Dirrell UD 9-3

    It is, if we are talking brain damage lol, but I think Dr Shaw Hi cured him, we know what that man can do...

    The girl in your avatar reminds me of a girl I am to see next weekend, so I had some problem to focus on your argument.

    Look, Shaw High is the most comical thing in modern boxing after Haye and his broken toe, but yes - the brain can heal up from certain injuries. Not like any off us armchair worriers would know about it.

    Andre is a solid fighter but I really think Kessler stops him in this one.

    You really think so? I can't see him catching Andre with his style.
