    Wonder if Dirrell will come to UK for a world title fight. They are the number #1 and #2 contenders.

    Agreed both are counter punchers and stand offish. Has all the hallmarks of a boring 12 round snoozefest

    What has Andre Dirrell actually done to get that high up in the IBF rankings? I'm not being funny, but how many fights has he had in total since the Abraham one - and any at all against anyone ranked or decent?

    Hi,

    Andre Dirrell won an eliminator for the #2 spot (Derek Edwards).

    Good point.

    Maybe the IBF felt sorry for him since he was robbed against Froch and inflated his ranking giving him another crack of the whip
