    Derrick Findley 13 wins 8 ko 2 losses, never stopped. Andre Ward is only notable name on resume, who he lost evrey of the 6 rounds. Coming of a win over someone who has one win and eighteen losses. Why is Dirrell fighting this guy. Only seen him fight once against Paschall and don't like his conservative style but he's got obvious talent and on paper this looks like a waste of time to me.

    Once David Banks turned the date down, they pretty much lost the will to book the fight.

    This is an awful opponent for Dirrell.

    Banks was a shitty opponent but Findley is even worst.

    Why is Showtime allowing him to fight such an opponent on their network?

    That fight is barely ESPN worthy.

    I suppose they are really desperate to find an American dream...
