Dan Rafael ,"Stylistically the Dirrell Bros give GGG hell!"

Dirrell/Froch was anything but beautiful. Horrible fight to watch.

 

Speaking the truth. Golovkin hasn't fought anybody with talent yet. He has fought tough guys like Ouma, or Murray, but he hasn't fought anyone with real athleticism, boxing ability, or decent power. Recall Middleweight is really thin right now. When a guy like Stevens who got spanked by bums is getting a title shot, or blown up 154 pounder are getting shots at Golovkin, it doesn't say much for the division.

 

You should like the Monroe fight then, Monroe is slick, athletic and frankly at least as talented as either Dirrell. Its a pity he wasn't given a couple more opportunities to shine before getting thrown in with GGG.

 

Monroe is going to get beat like a drum though, lol.

 

Honestly I haven't seen much of Monroe. The Dirrell's have a little bit of power. This kid doesn't seem to have any judging by his KO rate. I also don't hear that he is the next coming of Sweat Pea, or even Rigondeaux, so what does the kid bring to the table that puts the outcome of this fight in doubt?

 

Andre Dirrel is one of the most gifted athletes the sport has ever seen. His brother is less stellar but more grounded, and both are A level.

They would be hell for anyone.

 

Personally I'm a bigger fan of Anthony while less talented when he gets hit he goes to war while Andre drops to the ground at any sign of aggressiveness.

 

50 -50 fight.
Either man could have got that decision.

No robbery there.

WTF ???

The most blatant pu-ssy move in the history of the sport.

Andre was angling for an oscar there.

He coulda been Marlon Brando.

:rofl

He coulda been a contenda ? :yep

 

GGG would need a Formula 1 car to catch Andre Dirrell in the ring.

 

By the middle of 2016, I think most of us are going to be on the GGG hype train. He should have cleaned up the division by then, and possibly moved up in weight.

 

Hopefully he gets the winner of Lemieux-Ndam or Lee-Quillin ( hopefully Lee as I doubt Quillin would fight him but only after Lee-BJS) because Cotto wants to fight K9 or Heiland then Canelo and if WBC lets this go on GGG could be waiting a long while...
