i really like him, i think hes a gd fighter and he DID beat Froch also why is no one givin him a hope in hell against Abraham?? i also really like Abraham but i think Dirrell outpoints him. He'll be ready trust me. I guarantee hes learnt a lot from the Froch fight and i bet hes been preparing his ass off for Abraham. The sky is the limit for Andre Dirrell. Someone with that much natural ability cant be held down for long...

Hes watched too many PBF dvds. But Dirrell should have realized you cant do that in your opponents country.
Its alright for PBF doing it in America. But couldnt get away with it in Manchester against Hatton. Hatton would have held him all night long in manchester, so he wouldnt be doing any running.
hes a very good fighter
if anything i feel bad for the guy.for a young talented fighter like him to lose his '0' due to where the fight was staged and not what actually happened in the ring is real sad and has slightly tainted the whole idea of the super 6
Dirrell has a lot of potential, needs to work on his fundamentals though and put it all together, if the guy can put everything together he'd be a very tough guy to beat, he is a tough guy to beat as it is but so far he's only shown flashes of what he can become.
anybody else think that dirrell fights the way he does cuz he doesnt trust his ability to take a punch?
he literally looks like hes afraid to get punched.
well he been down before
but he took a shot like this and got back up to win the fight so his chin might not be that bad at all

He has excellent speed and movement. I think he was naive against Froch, that's probably through lack of experience. He need's to engage a bit more, and be slightly more aggressive. He's 10x faster than Abraham, but if he tries to hit and run I see the same result as the Froch fight.
he'll give AA alot of trobule....i think his timing is on point for a boxer with his style..considering that he DID ran alot vs carl he still landed more punches and even hurt carl
with AA he should try to be more offensive but stay on the outside.
hahaha you think?
Yeah, this dude is trippin. But Gamboa's Haircut is kind of Early 1990's. Post Kid and Play, Pre- Death-row/Bad Boy.
Kind of like Lil Boosie's haircut.
Dirrell is OK. Good skills. Fast. But he seemed scared of Froch. Regardless, I had him winning that fight. Abraham is a different story. He hits harder and has much better defense. I think Andre will be terrified of him, and because of this he won't be able to perform at his best, possibly too afraid to open up and let his hands go for fear of being brutally knocked out.

I think he is a good young fighter. I think that loss to Froch (though I thought he won), may have been the spark he needed to push himself even harder. He has great boxing ability, but he still has some learning to do. I think he just needs to sit down on his punches more and be a bit more agreessive at this point of his career. The best is yet to come from him and I truly believe that he will upset Arthur Abraham in April.
Dirrell is overated by many people, the guy got all the skills but that's not enough.
Skill is only 25% of being a great fighters...imagine this ! Go see Jean Pascal, Jermain Taylor and Dirrell in the gym and after that go see Froch...could you for one moment imagine that that this guy has beaten the three of them, Froch as no skills at all compare to them.
But the guy a high level of confidence and his able to be calm and focus at all time, Dirrell will never have that. By the way, Froch will have is first defeat against Kessler, Kessler will be a very focus man on that night...by losing to Ward, Kessler will be more focus !
Direll is going into his fight with AA already scared. He goin' nite nite. AA is going to catch him and put him right to sleep. Anybody with anything over 500k wanna put it on the "running man"....just pm me.
Better than Ward? Lol...wow. I'll admit he pretty much outboxed Froch, until Froch caught him, but he's nowhere near Ward's calibre.
I thought he did very well in the championship rounds vs. Froch. Great handspeed. I think that switching up to southpaw stuff should stop As far as calmness, meh, was that his first fight out of the U.S.? If it was, then I can give him a slight pass, bieng it his first big bout on foreign turf.
i agree. he needs to stop switching. against froch he was decidedly more effective fighting orthodox. he could win a fight on his left jab alone. when he switches southpaw he turns into a mediocre counter puncher who dives in missing wild lefts.
