    This guy has looked really good in his last two fights, is scheduled to fight Viktor Oganov, Nov. 1. now altho Oganov has only fought one name fighter and was KO'd by him (F. Zuniga), his record is 28-1 with all 28 wins by KO! Even if he was fighting stuffed animals, its still impressive and shows he is dangerous. I for one am impressed with Dirrell and hope he goes far.

    Should be able to outbox Oganov easily in this fight.

    But Andre likes to run a lot and maybe he knows something about his chin that hasnt come to light yet. If thats the case then Oganov seems like a strange opponant to choose.

    Direll pts, very wide.

    Dirrell could very well be the future of the SMW division: blinding speed with pop on his punches.

    I'm picking Dirrell to win but Oganov can catch him with some bull**** ... there's always that chance with a power puncher.

    Andre will have to be wary of the big bomb, keeping his hands up and using movement. A straight left counter by Andre will end this fight.
    Go Andre!!!

    I'm not sold on him,the Oganov fight should clarify his ''awesomeness''

    oganov is slow/musclebound/lacks talent to set up his power/and has a pourous defense.

    direll handspeed will give oganov who has slow feet fits and dirrell should treat oganov as a heavy bag.

    obviously heavy handed is oganov , but also obvious he needs the opponent to stand right in front of him and let him land.

    Dirrell v Green would be a good one for a step-up bout. On Dirrell v Ward - they're buddies, so they're not going to fight each other unless there's a lot of money on the line. It might happen if they both get belts, although it would be a very interesting matchup.

    i'd move this guy quick.

    very talented fighter.

    oganov is a passable test at this stage.

    i'd like to see some sort of world title eliminator in the first half of next year though.
