          i think its gonna be a very interesting fight. dirrell with his speed, foot movement, reflexes & outside game vs ward's inside pressure & agression. its a style contrast between the 2 fighters that im looking forward to for this fight & the fact that both guys are young, athletic, smart & at the beginning of their prime.

            Honestly cant be worse then the green fight....ward using that style on a guy who didnt show up at all made it a real stinker.

            Honestly i couldnt watch it

            Hope it does have some action

                  i expect neither fighter really wanting to engage, both pop-shotting from the outside, neither ever really wanting to committ. i think both fighters have the ability to make the fight semi-exciting and competitive but i just dont think it will happen. IF it does turn out to be watchable i expect it to mostly be contributed to by ward. dirrell's running in the froch fight made it impossible for me to ever become a fan.

                  every fight in the super six is important for the sport, ill watch an important fight even if i know it will prob suck. i watched ward-green although i did click over to watch leben vs hammill for the last few rounds (a much better choice). i flipped back to catch the post fight and hear green cry.

                    when in this thread did i even remotely suggest this? stop acting like its impossible for a boxing match to be boring as hell. any sport can have a boring match up - boxing is no different.

                      I fear Ward will apply the same tactics as used against Green. Hopefully Dirrell will be just a tad more game, but I honestly fear it could be an absolute stinker.

                      One good outcome is that one of them loses - hopefully it's Ward although I would rather have Froch and AA in the tourney.

                      Baaah
