    People shouldn't be jumping to any conclusions about what damage Dirrell may or may not have suffered. If he's negotiating another fight in the near future rip him to pieces by all means, but until then, it's pretty tasteless to attack someone who may have suffered serious damage from a brutal knockout that he wasn't prepared for from a massive puncher.

    A retired Dirrell is no loss to boxing anyway, as he's already disgraced the sport the way he 'fought' against Froch and the highly questionable circumstances of his win v AA.

    To be fair, this is probably right

    Problem is, Dirrell hasn't helped himself with his past theatrics -- the reason why I still smell bull****

    Interesting -- Oakland being mooted as venue for next Ward buttfest

    Don't worry he'll be back. How long it takes it depends on:
    How long a vacation his planing with his family chilling out.
    How long he needs to grow a pair to step in the ring again.

    Doctors said 3 months ..but i think he'll stay out of it more just chilling and negotiating his next fight. Something similar to what Hopkins does.

    It's not strictly 3 months from today, it's wait three months until he has no more symptoms and then go for more tests

    You're right, it's definitely got a suspicious scent, I just don't want to jump to conclusions when a guy could be suffering serious brain trauma.

    If Ward wins the Super Six without leaving Oakland he can **** off too.

    I think it's important to question Dirrell's character too. People who defend him should look at some of his other actions and then ask whether this is truly out of turn. I don't think it is.
