    This is a matchup only hardcore boxing fans can appreciate. Allan Green is inconsistent but is dangerous when he is on. Dirrell has sweet handspeed and boxing skills. I got Andre winning a SD.

      Dirrell's damn exciting when he wants to be.

      Green isn't super exciting, but his one punch power is pretty helpful in making up for his fairly ordinary textbook style.

      I would think Dirrell's handspeed would overwhelm Green. The only weakness we've seen from Dirrell so far is that he couldn't really deal with Hanshaw rushing him head on. It seemed like he fixed that when he fought Oganov, so...

      Plus, Sweetness Green doesn't really rush in. He'd probably lose a UD in a semi-high contact boxing contest in my opinion.

        That's true but Dirrell can be on some Wlad **** and just touch a hurt opponent when he can clearly end it at anytime. That's the ONLY negative thing I have about Dirrell. Other than that, he is the goods.

          both have shaky chins even though I like dirrell he did go down in the first round of the Hanshaw fight but his speed and power would be to much for Allan Green

            Your time to shine Vladimir. Let's hear your argument why Green beats my boy Andre Dirrell.

              Dirrell has more hand speed and a more relaxed style that would give Green trouble, but as you said if he lands on Dirrell's chin.......

              Im not convinced about Dirrell's defence. He looked open against Paschall and HE is far from a championship quality. Green is much more dangerous than Hanshaw,Oganov and Findley.


              Dirrell looks far from the finished article to me. I know that goes without saying, but im not sure he is ready to take someone like Green on.

              Green had a legit excuse the Miranda loss.
