    Whats your views on him?? To me he is quickly becoming the complete package in speed, good jab, and KO power. His chin might be suspect but that adds to the excitment.

    Too soon to tell for me. Looks promising though.

    His cousin is actually a really good friend of mine. Andre is coming to visit him in the coming months so I'm going to have the oppourtunity to meet him. From what I've seen of the Dirrell brothers, they are the real deal. Anthony is still recovering from cancer and is looking to make a great recovery. He is very exciting to watch since his power is top notch. Andre though is more of a boxer-puncher. I see a title in atleast one of their futures. At 6'2 he is a big SMW.

    I couldn't stand him after watching his disgusting performance against Steven's. But I'm starting to like him more after his KO over Hanshaw

    I still think his brother is better though

    Yea his brother is a very big puncher which is what people likes, I also think he is a bit faster.

    The faster Dirrell is better. If he stays focused and starts getting paid well so he can have the best equipment/training etc. I seen a clip of him and he only made like 25k from his biggest fight. I was like holy ****. That is peanuts for a fighter of his caliber.

    After the Stevens performance I was ready to write him off completely

    But the Hanshaw performance was impressive

    I think he's better than Ward. He's just as fast, a southpaw, and his power is alot better than Ward's.

    Ward is a wannabe, utterly poor and homeless man's version of Roy.

    he's someone to take note great prospect imo, and perhaps the best prospect to hope in the 175 division. The way he destroyed hanshaw made roy jones look more shot
