    Why are you upset? Is it because I'm right:hey? Like I said, he would be the 3rd best fighter under Kessler. Dirrell arguably(and imo) has a win over Froch, someone better than most of Calzaghe's wins. Dirrell also has more talent than almost all of Calzaghe's defenses it's just his fault that he doesn't utilize it enough. Oh, and Eubank killed himself to make the weight so I wouldn't hold that win highly. Dirrell beat a hard hitting AA by DQ not ko but we all know AA isn't a solid SMW.

    Which performance of Dirrells in particular impresses you to the extent he would 'beat **** down' Calzaghe?

    Calzaghe is all wrong for Direll. Direll can't fight inside and as much footspeed as he has, it's not enough to keep Calzaghe at bay.
    Calzaghe would win easily. Direll's very good, but stylistically, this is all wrong for him.

    Dirrell is not lacy or kessler.and he would not get away that bull **** he does with a young slick american boxer period.euro fighters and jeff lacy all stand in front of him like robots.fight someone with angles, good reflexes, athletic, HEAD MOVEMENT, FEINTS.and joe would have been lost.

    gun shy rjj dont count, i guess you can count hopkins but i said young.

    So you think Andrea is better than Hopkins and that is why she would 'beat **** down' Calzaghe.

    If Dirrell and Hopkins fought tomorrow, Dirrell wouldn't win a round.

    Yeah well with brittle hands you cant blame calzaghe for fighting that way, he had to adjust. A Prime Calzaghe Punch would have Dirrell on the deck.

    Are you suggesting Dirrell was faking against Abraham. Dirrell is coming off a KO by Abraham, even though he won the fight and a loss from the limited C Froch. Get it now :hi:
