    Explain to me Dirrells defence?

    the words "running away" and "falling on the floor" are not allowed

    But as i pointed out i think now after the Abraham fight, Froch wont brawl much and will box better

    Dirrell's speed and reflexes will always give Forch trouble IMO. Dirrell was on the back foot far too much, but at times, made Froch look amateurish.

    Because Froch`s mindset was all wrong in the fight , hed won most of his fights by brawling and was caught in a trap of hype about his power, he`d forgotten to box. But if Dirrell and Froch fight again it will be a very different fight now that the light bulb has start flashing saying "Box" in FRoch`s brain

    Dirrell by wide UD at this point.

    DeGale is unproven at world level, lets see how he does against Groves first.

    Yes Dirrell did but thats cos Frochs mindset and plan was all wrong then. Now though he wont fight like that if he faces Dirrell , he`ll box properly.

    Mindset or not, Dirrell can, and most likely will make Froch miss a lot. Like I said, I'd favour Dirrell, but Froch turning up using the jab will no doubt help him.

    Right now, Dirrell would be favourite going in but that doesn't mean he would win.

    I have high hopes that DeGale will go all the way.

    dirrell atm. dirrell is so quick and good from range and is difficult to lure in to counter. it would be a lot of outside work using jabs and straights and i think dirrell is better at that atm. maybe degale will improve though.

    i see what your saying. i agree it would be an amateur with lots of pitter patter shots. but andre has improved a lot since his amateur days. the more i think about it though the more i favour degale. he has more intellegent movement and better range with his jab.

    degale has more ability than dirrell. variety of punch and just pure skill but dirrell has better physical atribute like speed and stregnth.
