If not for a blatant robbery. Both of these fine upstanding gentlemen would b 2-0 with championship belts. Once Dirrell defeates Abraham, and once Ward ends Taylors career, its going be great having a midwest vs west showdown
Yep, Dirrell showed Froch too much respect. Ward took it to Kessler like the mediocre boxer he was. Dirrell will learn and jump on Abraham early.
Dirrell isn't half as good as Ward. Some people think how good these fighters are depends on wether they are American or European. These people don't know **** about boxing. Its funny cause I remember when Dirrell fought Oganov everyone was riding his dick hard and I kept saying Ward was the one who was the real deal. Now its come to fruition. But the funny ass thing is that people still complaining about Froch vs Dirrell being a robbery. LOL. First of all it wasn't a robbery if you can score a fight properly and secondly do you think Ward would even be in a situation like that against Froch?
If you know how to score a fight properly, Froch doesnt win more then 3 rounds. Personally I believe I had Dirrell winning 7-3 with 2 even. You can concievably give Froch the 3, 5, 8 or 9th rounds. 10 was even. Round 1 was even leaning towards Dirrell. And round 10 was even because even though Dirrell got the point deduction he still nearly KO'd froch making it 9-9, and dominated Froch in the 11th and 12th and had him hurt atleast once. Now post your scorecard and prove how little you know about boxing. As for whos better. Ward is a better more complete boxer right now. But in terms of overall athleticism and talent. Dirrell wins hands down. If Dirrell can grow up a little more, start a little earlier, he will have the better longer lasting career.
aa is going to be a difficult fight for dirrell this is interesting now because the tables have turned ward will take out froch jt & dirrell would be an interesting fight kessler may not even make the playoffs of this thing
Guess those judges at Dirrell-Froch didn't have a clue whatsoever about boxing and also seems that the organizing bodies must have also been idiots to appoint a group of people who know nothing whatsoever about boxing to judge the outcome of a world championship fight. Makes sense. . .
Dirrel should be the wbc champ right along with ward being the new wba supermiddleweight champ..kessler got exposed nothin but hype all along
Dirrell showed a complete lack of experience in the Froch fight. Running away and throwing yourself on the ground, when you have the beating of your opponent, is not the way to win over the judges. All his good points in that fight were overshadowed by his negativity. But he'll learn. Ward showed the goods though. Very fast and accurate with nice footwork. I wonder if he'll travel outside the states though when he qualifies for the semi's and possibly the final.
I like Dirrell but Ward is much better than him and will completely dominate Froch when they fight. Dirrell is too inexperienced and shouldn't have join this tourny in the first place.
Dirrell is still far more talented physically and athletically then ward. Getting robbed in Nottingham against a champion is alot better experience then feasting on bums. He'll learn, go back and watch the last 3 rounds if you dont believe Dirrell belongs with this group.
