Comments Thread For: Anthony Dirrell: I'll Retire If I Can't Fight Canelo Next; I'm Getting Too Old For This

It is possible.

but any match at this point for Saul has to serve one of three things.

1. Further Establish legacy
2. Generate massive sums of money
3. Be a tune up for a bigger fight

I am not sure Darrell fits any of those categories.

By golly, you're right, Sir! I stand corrected! I honestly had no idea that Plant was such a huge draw. I saw the Truax fight and remember not being impressed because Truax acted like he didn't really want to be there and Plant still couldn't stop him.

Trust me I was shocked too but it is as it is lol.

Dirrell has fought David Benavidez, Badou Jack, Caleb Truax, Sakio Bika among others. Much better quality of opposition than Smith's, at least for my taste.

Smith has been living off his KO of a shot Groves for quite a while, but his actual worth was evident against Canelo.

Fair enough. I would pick Smith to beat Dirrell but to each his own
