Andre Dirrell WILL take the Super Six.

It depends on how Dirrell will respond when Ward takes him into deep waters. Mentally I think Dirrell is straight, it's just that Ward is mentally tougher. I'm going with Ward in a close decision.

So i guess im not the only one who thinks Dirrell is not mentally up there. Great talent though, no doubt. They Dirrell that fought Froch would with 100% certainty lose to Ward. The guy that fought AA has a legit chance for sure.

Any news regarding venue for Dirrell-Ward? This could be the deciding factor IMO.

Dirrell-Froch? I know Dirrell won that fight but c'mon dude had a real tough time. Ward is multi-dimensional and we've seen that. There's no way for Ward not to win decision in this one, doesn't matter where it is....Vegas, Detroit Andre Ward by decision. You see how he did against Miranda? Kessler? Green? Nobody has won more then two rounds in those three fights.....Two......Can Dirrell say that? I love Dirrell I hope he could go to the next round but he's losing this one. Maybe a fight with Jean Pascal after his loss to Ward. Extreme Oakland bias.

Dirrell looked good against Abraham, but seemed to be slowing down in the later rounds. If not for the DQ, I'm not sure how the fight would have ended. I wasn't impressed with Dirrell's overselling of that punch though. Maybe it really did knock him out, but it looked like he was acting. That said, I still enjoyed the fight. I actually got to attend the Ward-Kessler fight, and Ward dominated the hell out of it. But that's definitely because Kessler had no clue how to deal with Ward's fighting on the inside. Green couldn't do jack about it either, but that's probably because he didn't show up to fight in the first place. I'm looking forward to seeing how Dirrell deals with Ward. If I had to pick one, I'd go with Ward. Holding and hitting isn't the only thing he's capable of, and seeing as Dirrell got screwed once, I think they'll give a close decision to Ward if it does end up going the distance.

He outclassed Froch, and was clearly robbed, but moved on and embarrassed Abraham so bad he caused him to step out of character and intentionally foul him. Dirrell was toying with Abraham the whole time, and if he can do that to who some call the best fighter in the tournament, he can and will do it to Kessler, who has looked very unimpressive in his two fights, and he will do it to Ward. Ward's fights were unimpressive aswell, with Ward holding most of the Green fight and using his head against Kessler numerous times, he hasn't proven what 'skill' he has. He won't be able to rush Dirrell like he did Kessler and Green, Dirrell will pop him with that jab, use lateral movement and confuse one-dimensional Ward and completely outclass and outbox him. styles make fights. if dirrell has the speed and can get off first, he can beat ward. dirrell also needs a judge that won't let ward hold-n-hit.

I saw the same things I saw in his previous bouts. He is full of nervous energy, leading him to slow down late in the bout and fatigue makes cowards of us all, or so the saying goes. Dirrell is not as confident in himself as he makes himself out to be. At least that's what people in his camp say. And it's mind boggling because his talent is simply out of this world. Ward, on the other hand, is one of the most mentally strong and focused fighter in the world. Fair enough. Dirrell takes it. :lol1:

I'm not picking Ward...yet. Dirrell has that one-hitter quitter and I don't think Ward can take it. Other than that, however, I see very little in Dirrell's favor. Dirrell has an edge in speed but Ward holds one in timing. But boxing is mental and I just don't feel comfortable with Dirrell in that aspect. I thought he had great mentality in the AA fight..

Dazed doesn't know what he's talking about. Obviously. Dirrell takes it. I'm not picking Ward...yet. Dirrell has that one-hitter quitter and I don't think Ward can take it.

Andre is very skilled. But i think hes a mental midget IMO. His fight with Ward will be tough and I see Wards toughness win it. I think Andre will fold againest a very skilled fighter who seems to improve alot. But not knocking him off, i just dont think hes mentally up there.. This. Dirrell has the physical ability but not the mental fortitude it takes to become great imo

im glad your picking ward, makes me feel more confident on my pick Sounds good.

Dirrell is going to have an extremely tough time beating Ward. Extremely. im glad your picking ward, makes me feel more confident on my pick

he'd be dead cuz his glass chin could'nt handle it Green K coming your way.

Tell me the truth, if you got slugged in the face by a power puncer named Arthur Abraham while you were vulnerable and unprotected, would you cry? he'd be dead cuz his glass chin could'nt handle it

yeah sure.....if by crying while on the floor means he will win then sure... :rolleyes: Tell me the truth, if you got slugged in the face by a power puncer named Arthur Abraham while you were vulnerable and unprotected, would you cry?
