Andre Dirrell back in Training

I had a dream that Dirrell suffered a grazed knee in his next fight and had to attend the clinic for treatment. As he's sitting in the waiting room, a somewhat recognisable gentleman emerges in a white coat and introduces himself as none other than Dr Shaw High! "But I thought you weren't real?" stutters Andre as he's led passively into the doctor's office. "Oh, my dear boy, I assure you I am only too real!" replies Dr High. "Take a seat." "So," continues the good doctor, "what appears to be the problem?" Dirrell begins to explain the circumstances of his injury, how he took an expecially violent slip in the 7th when his opponent began to close the distance, and ended up mildly inflaming his knee on the horrid canvas. To make matters worse, he felt he strained his left vaginal flap in the process, leaving him unable to pull off his funky salsa moves every Monday afternoon with his usual aplomb, etc etc. The doctor nods sympathetically and urges him to go on. Andre continues, oblivious to the subtle change taking place in the learned doctor's facial appearance. When he finally looks up from listing his litany of injuries he sees that the doctor's face has morphed into that of his promotor, Gary Shaw, whilst his stomach has ballooned outward to accomodate the portly promotor's formidable girth. To Andre's continued alarm and confusion the whole of the doctor's office begins to transform into that of a run-down and disused boxing gym. "Wh... wh... what's going on, dawg?" cries Andre, looking about him in a blind panic. "Well," said Dr Shaw, "you see, the extent of your neurological injuries was greater than we supposed. All this -- the clinic, the gym, myself -- are merely figments of your imagination, delusions of your battered psyche. But the illusion is so strong that to all intents and purposes if it as real as the waking world. You have become trapped in a hell of your own making. You will win every one of your fights for the rest of your career, but only by DQ, and each one of those fights will be against a bald Armenian man with a creepy smile, and the public will never take you to heart but shun you and call you a quitter and a fake, and the name of Andre The Matrix Dirrell will forever be associated with cowardice, deceit and all the very worst aspects of this sport that you choose to call your profession." Andre is silent for a moment. Then he says, "So do I still get paid like a muthafuka?" "Err, yes, but don't you feel..." "Nah, it's all good. Thanks doc. I'll be seeing you." He skips out of the gym whistling into the bright morning sunlight. "Unscrupulous b*stard," mutters Dr Shaw High, shaking his head.

HBO already booted him cuz he ran from Stevens all fight long. Showtime should boot him for good now aswell. Lying cunt.

This guys is a clown. Showtime ****ed up by not having extremely strict contracts with horrible consequences if theyre broken. Lame lame lame.

just knew that ward-dirrell was and is never gunna happen yes 100% never gunna happen

just knew that ward-dirrell was and is never gunna happen

I think he acted badly before the Froch fight, during the Froch fight and at the end of the Abraham fight. He likes to act..............

I don't think he was afraid to fight Ward or didn't want to fight because they are boys. I think the neurological accuse happened because of the business side of the bout. They couldn't agree to a venue and don't think either were excited to fight each other. Dirrell soon after his fight seemed fine when he was in Miami the next week and in Oakland just the week after or thereabouts. Neurogical problems is a broad excuse. I agree with many of you that he could have been more subtle about it. But that is Dirrell he is childish acting and unprofessional. He just couldn't wait to tell his followers that he is ready to jump back in the ring after an exciting weekend and month of boxing.

ur obviouly part of the majority that missed the radio interview a month after the arthur fight where he mentions frequent headaches since the arthur fight if he's fully cleared up, then yes, it's been awhile He said in an interview a month ago that he had to be symptom free for three month to fight. He also said at the time that he still had headaches and stuff. And a few weeks after saying that he is back to training. Can't you see why people are suspicious, especially that he was supposed to fight Ward in september, and the fight got postponed only a few weeks beore it happened. Didn't he train and spar at that time, despite not being allowed to because not yet symptom free?

Are you retarded? He just pulled out last month. ur obviouly part of the majority that missed the radio interview a month after the arthur fight where he mentions frequent headaches since the arthur fight if he's fully cleared up, then yes, it's been awhile

nice duck!!

jesus he is sum pu$$y.he was only duckin ward d whole time

it's been already 8-9 months, bout time the **** cleared up

Dirrell used to be one of my favorite fighters and I was giving him the benefit of the doubt, but he's more than likely lying. A neurological disorder diagnosed a month back (after the cat scan after the AA fight came out OK) cleared up so fast that he's already cleared for training and in the near future going back to taking blows in the head. If he's planning on fighting in around 5 months, then he will be sparring in 3 or 4. Just the way everything has gone down, is shifty and the kid is lying. i agree bro,hes a lying coward.

So Dirrell has now completely recovered from his brain disorder. Ok. Makes sense... I hope Showtime sues his pockets dry.

I hope he gets better,this is his life not a fcking hobby,if he is fit to fight 6 months from now cool.

I hope he gets better,this is his life not a fcking hobby,if he is fit to fight 6 months from now cool. He was told to rest and be "symptom free" by the illustrious "Dr Shaw High". Now he is training and aiming for a fight already. I mean c'mon, at least be a bit more subtle about it, go lie on a beach for a few months to at least make it look real. This is a big **** you to all us fans, including you.

How is it all good? The guy pulled out of the Super Six and added yet even more complications to it. What a b1tch move. I truly doubt Dirrell is scared of Andre Ward lol, this guy stepped in the ring with Froch and freaking Arthur Abraham in back to back fights. Yeah alot of complications were added to the Super Six but his health comes first. He said he was injured so i'm gonna take his word for it.

I hope Abraham gets another chance to knock that faqqot out.

As long as he eventually fights Andre Ward it's all good. How is it all good? The guy pulled out of the Super Six and added yet even more complications to it. What a b1tch move.
