Thoughts on Dirrell v Oganov

Other than Zuniga, to whom he lost, has Oganov fought anyone who is not an absolute tomato can?

 

No he hasnt, Zuniga was his first step up really and was handed a beatdown and KOd by Zunigas sweet left hook......I expect Dirrel to hand out a similar beating......I think Dirrels chin is decent

 

Well fitz, stylistically Oganov makes Prescott look like Sugar Ray Leonard....that is the all important difference......Sure Oganov has power but anyone with mediocre skills along with mediocre power will beatem

 

I know I've seen Dirrell on ESPN, but I'll be damned if I remember the specifics. He can box a bit can't he? I'm asking because Zuniga beat Oganov by being a better bully, but I think anyone with solid fundamentals would beat Oganov as well.

 

I certainly hope so:good I don't see any reason why not, they're both up and coming contenders in the same division. It would be a great fight "Battle of the Andres"

 

Great main event for FNF.

 

No way. They'll do it eventually, but it will be no less than a title eliminator. I doubt they'll want to fight each other anyway if there isn't a lot of money on the table, since they're close friends.

 

Dirrell has a solid skillset, can really crack and is developing nicely....If Oganov learned how to jab or maybe learned some defensive skills(movement, guard) I would give Oganov more of a chance

 

Indeed, however FNF is pretty good as well....Cintron-Margo1 anyone, yep it was on espn

 

You guys are probably right. If Dirrell/ward ever happens, it probably won't be until after both fighters have outgrown FNF.
