    I like the lighter weights but the Abraham-Dirrell fight is one I'm really looking forward to.

      Do you think I planned the trip without looking at a map?

      It's 4 hours from Vegas to Palm Springs. And the cost of a plane ticket to Palm Springs from Detroit is 150 bucks more than flying to and from Vegas. And that is with 2 stops instead of flying straight through.

        unless your planning on spending some time in vegas you could probably fly into lax for the same price with no stops and be in palm springs in 1.5 hrs, saving you a total driving time of 5 hrs. Of course thats assuming you dont want to be in vegas for at least a few days.

          Dirrell will show up and let his hand go and he'll be too quick for AA. That's the thing that'll bite AA in the ass. He's going to wait....and wait...be patient...and wait...and never catch Dirrell. South318 bruh...

            I do want to be in Vegas. I sure as hell don't want to be in LA for any reason.

            Plus the time to the drive isn't the issue I'll end up paying the same amount to rent a car from either place.

            Plus like I said, I want to make my bet on Dirrell and go back to pick it up. And yeah I know you are Armenian so AA is gonna win by knockout and im not gonna have any money to pick up.........

              Well see, I don't like the running or should
              I say sprinting he did with soft ass froch.well see if he shows up, he hasn't really impressed me, plus the best matchup is AA vs "the real dre" for the tournament crown.if dirrel is scarerd to trade with froch , he definately be scared **** of AA.

                yeah me too, hopefully it wont turn out to be as bizarre as I think it will be.

                one thing is that if it does go 12 it will be given to Dirrell even if he loses on points. AA needs a KO and he will probably get it.

                  Dirrell hopefully learned some things from the Froch robbery. I can see him building up a points lead very easily. But Abraham can change the fight at any time with one punch.

                  Should be good.

                  The Darchinyan bout is blah.

                    Dirrell is going to make AA come get him. I think it's going to be Dirrell's distance and range that's going to give him problems. I don't see AA wide looping shots working on Dirrell.

                      Despite Darchinyans many flaws he's always exciting to watch so i look forward to it. Hopefully we get a Donaire rematch after this as i think that's the one people want to see, Donaire needs it to get his name back in the mix because he's been doing nothing lately.
