Article: An Unbiased Look at Andre Dirrell

I have to congratulate Carl Froch on reclaiming the WBC belt against Arthur Abraham in Helsinki last night but a small part of me can’t help thinking “Froch you robbing *******, give the belt to talented Andre Dirrell - the rightful owner!”

You all know what I’m talking about.

Dirrell was shafted that night in Nottingham – he was metaphorically bent over while Froch and the scum–sucking Euro public ****d-up. The Matrix may be too much of a gentleman to complain – and Dirrell is without question a gentleman (and a badass) – but I’m certainly not.

We all know that Dirrell is not only the people’s champion but the rightful WBC champ. Even most Euro’s think this. In a poll conducted by Badger’s Today magazine in London, Europe, 92.37% of the respondents said that Dirrell won the fight. That’s right, even the Euro’s know that Dirrell won the fight and THEY WERE THE ONE’S WHO ROBBED HIM!

As if this grave injustice was not enough, Dirrell has been done again – this time by the professional dumbasses at Ring magazine. Following Paul Williams knockout loss to Sergio Martinez, they updated their Pound4Pound list and Dirrell WAS NOT EVEN IN THE TOP 10!?! This is insanity, words almost fail me. How do these ignoramuses make a career out of boxing writing? Ask any man on the street where Dirrell rates on the Pound4Pound list and 9 times out of 10 they will say No.2 between Manny and Floyd and they are absolutely right... No.2 until Manny stops ducking Dirrell and actually comes to 168 lbs to face him. Then the Matrix will be rightfully installed at No.1 once he gives Manny the beat-down of his life.

Even when this happens – and there is no certainty it will happen because we know Manny has ducked black American boxers like Fast Eddie Chambers his whole career – but when it does happen, Ring magazine still might not recognise his achievements – probably put him in at No.4 or something. Sometimes when you’re Andre Dirrell, you can’t win, even when you win. Just like in Nottingham.

Insults and robberies like this would be enough to end the career of a lesser boxer than Dirrell, or at least get them very depressed. But Dirrell is no ordinary man or boxer. Here are the reasons why he is both a formidable fighter and human being:


Dirrell Has Had a Movie Named After Him
Dirrell was only a 14-year-old amateur when filmmakers the Wachowski brothers saw one of his fights and were simply blown away by his speed, movement and reflexes. They were so inspired they made the Matrix trilogy and named it after him. I know boxers like Muhammed Ali have had biopics made about them once they were old men but how many boxers have inspired a major motion picture when they were 14 years old? That’s right, nobody!


Dirrell is a Boxing Innovator
Lets’ think back to the Arthur Abraham fight. Dirrell won this when he was knocked-out on the canvas and his opponent was on his feet looking a bit confused. Dirrell is a pioneer, a ground-breaker, a visionary, an innovator. How many other boxers have won a fight WHEN THEY GOT KNOCKED OUT? Right again, nobody!


Dirrell has the Best Medical Team Behind Him
Dirrell has a great family doctor but we all know who I’m really talking about here. Yep, the world’s foremost neurologist, Dr. Shawhi. In the modern boxing game you really need a great neurologist and they don’t come any better than Dr Shawhi. Think back again to the illegal knock-out by Arthur Abraham, well Dirrell’s promoter Gary Shaw said soon after the fight that the Matrix had undergone a battery of neurological tests and had been given a clean bill of health. Do you know why? Because Showtime obviously appointed some dumbass neurologist to oversee the tests, who wouldn’t know a stethoscope from a dildo. The doctor (and I use that term loosely) was probably from some backward, third world, tin-pot dictatorship and had no business practicing medicine in the number one country in the world, let alone overseeing an elite fighter of Dirrell’s calibre.

Thank God for Dr. Shawhi (and let’s not forget the family doctor who first referred Dirrell to him). Now, under Shawhi’s guidance, Dirrell has suggested on Twitter that he will be fighting in the New Year. It’s only a month and a half or so since the injury was announced – that’s how good his neurologist is! Dr Shawhi is to the medical world what Dirrell is to the boxing world... the best!


Dirrell is Compassionate Man
Early on in the Froch fight, Dirrell was outclassing the Euro so badly that he actually began to feel very sorry for him. Froch’s family, friends and girlfriend we’re all witnessing the humiliation and he could see that Froch was about to start crying, so he made a resolution right then and there that every time Froch missed a punch he would give him a cuddle to make him feel better. When the final bell rang out, Dirrell had given Froch 1, 784 cuddles. I know, I counted. Dirrell is a class act but sometimes he can be too nice for his own good, as two of the judges were clearly confused having never experienced this level of humanity and mistakenly awarded the fight to Froch.


Dirrell is a Great Friend
Dirrell loves his friends and he always wants the best for them. He will put a consoling arm round their shoulders when they get a bit sad, he will laugh with them as they share a joke in the bowling alley, he will take quiet moonlight walks with them in the park and he will give them a few bucks now and then because they are from the ghetto BUT what he will not do UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES is punch them in the face. We all know what a great friend Dirrell is to Andre Ward and he simply was not prepared to punch him in the face. Period. Would you punch your best friend in the face? I know I wouldn’t. And let’s say he did, once he crossed that line, what’s to stop him punching his grandfather in the face or his uncle Leon? Hell, what’s to stop him punching his wife in the face? Well Dirrell simply will not entertain that type of behaviour, he loves his friends and family and will not PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE! Anyway, Dr. Shawhi expertly spotted the neurological symptoms that Dirrell was suffering at that time, so all this is a moot point.


I could go on talking about how great Dirrell is all night, but I have to make my dinner, so I'll leave it on this note: 2011 is going to be Dirrell's year! Manny he's coming for you! USA USA USA...
