    Come on you dont mean that.

    Mclellan would be a good fight and stand good chnces against both of them but those three would not beat both the aforementioned fighters.

    Andre Dirrell. Thought he looked the best fighter in the super 6 even though he did a bit of a running act and another kinda acting in different fights. Think the super 6 was his for the taking but decided to choose a wierd way out of it for reasons i can only put to lack of self belief and belief of his team.

    Andre Ward. Though he looked the 2nd best fighter in the super 6 but it seemed the organisers had chosen him as their star boy and wanted their star boy to be American to rake in the most money and have given him every advantage to succeed.

    Kessler a scrub?

    He absolutely schooled Andrade, who troubled and knocked out (only to get robbed against? current Ring Magazine number 1 super-middleweight Lucian Bute.

    Benn and Eubank b-level fighters? Benn braved the storm and knocked out, with clean punches, the hardest puncher P4P of all time IMO. He also knocked out Iran Barkley in one round, James Toney couldn't knock him out at all.

    My post wasnt clear. I meant Dirrell and Ward would have been up against now known PEDs cheats in Jones and Toney, and that Dirrell and Ward would have lost to the other fighters mentioned

    They would lose to all apart from beyer ottke etc.

    they're not hype jobs and certainly not the finished article yet they have a long way to go.

    Andre ward is the future of the smw and lhw divisions.

    Couldn't agree more.

    I think Dirrell should face financial penalties if he wants to come back in to the tournament. He backed out because he didn't want to face Ward unless he would get more money even though he already agreed contractually to the structure of the tournament. It's a joke and I hope he gets fined. If he wants back into the tournament, he should have to face Ward. Even then, after the nonsense he's pulled, who's to say he wouldn't try it again (refuse to fight to get more money) in the Semi-Finals or Finals?

    Ward vs. Dirrell was one of the fights I've been most excited to see in my life, yet we got robbed of it because Dirrell and his team are morons.

    As a huge fan of AA, I was totally suprised how dirrell out boxed and out classed AA for 10 rds. It's kinda a shame peps only remember the crazy ending, but lost in it all was a masterful stragey and execution by dirrell.

    seriously, the enigine that makes this sport go is the fans. The fans deserve to see exciting competitve fights. What do you gain from finincial penalties, wouldn't u perfer just witnessing great boxing matches? Dirrell served his purpose in the S6 putting on 2 great fights. He arguably beat froch in england, and schooled undefeated AA in 2nd match of S6. He is a good young fighter, and if he is healthy he deserves to entertain us again.

    it was great but for me AA had a legit KD in round 9 (?) and i know it was called a trip but he was getting to dirrell and starting to time him. he could have got the KO but lost it and I think he fouled dirrell on purpose.
