    This was a fight i just watched today i like watching older fights once in a while

    the skill gap was huge but i was really dis pointed in andre for not engaging more he was petrified with curtis's power you could see it and he was booed at.I know stevens a big puncher but i expected more from andre.

    personally for me Dirrell has all the physical attributes to be a top boxer today but he just doesn't have the gutts, mental fortitude & emotional toughness to be a top tier fighter he lacks class.

    He ultamtley won a UD

    How do you rate that win?

    Stevens can bang, make no mistake. Hardest punch I saw GGG get caught by was courtesy of Curtis. Golovkin was also circumspect ... no free shots against Stevens that night.

    It was kind of pathetic though fans even booed dirrel for being so scared i remember in round 4 andre tried for a second to engage just a little bit then ran away and i said no thanks.

    this is what separates guys like andre dirrel and gennady golovkin

    Fight to your strengths, not your opponents. Jimmy, you'd make a horrible fighter and trainer.

    Agreed alex.

    But did you actually watch the fight? dirrel fought so negatively it was a shame to watch he even got booed i know stevens hits like a truck but i expected more from dirrel but then again not everyone can be like Golovkin.

    but i expected him to at least put stevens on the back foot more instead it was the other way round.

    Look, I know you only created this thread to make Golovkin look more impressive, that's all you cheerleaders do. Just make agenda-driven threads. That aside, I actually haven't seen this fight. But I also haven't been in the ring against someone that can put me on my ass to criticize someone else for simply boxing.

    If I'm fighting someone I KNOW that's got more power than me, you think I'm a be stupid enough to go toe to toe? Call me scared if you want, I'll call you ignorant. If I fight Golovkin, I'm pot shotting and clinching at any opening I see. Why would I make it easy for him?

    I don't want to make this about GGG but you just have to marvel at this man

    this really shows how far ahead GGG is from the rest

    when you watch dirrel in with stevens and see how he was petrfied of stevens and won on points

    then you have GGG walking him down all night and breaking him down and stopping him the gulf in class is really big.

    Because Golovkin was the stronger man, Dirrell was not the stronger man. It's as simple as that. Has nothing to do with Golovkin being "far ahead".

    You must've spent some time training with the Mayweather's then, sounds just like Floyd Joy Sinclair Mayweather.

    People booed Rigo when he fought Donaire and I consider that a master class. Like I'm a care if people boo :lol: I can form my own opinion.
