Dan Rafael says Dirrell's career may be over.

[Slyboots]

Im simply pointing out that unlike all the other self important douchebags on this forum Dan actually has "access" to the fighters and can "investigate" the stories that are coming out of the Dirrell camp before printing them. Hes not exactly just taking a guess here.

He's reporting based off of a press statement. Investigates the report? How the hell does he do that? And what is he taking a guess at? So if he thinks the story is BS he wouldn't report it?

Dumbass. Like seriously, you really are dumb.

Hope the kid is alright

Hope the kid is alright

If it's real, then I hope so too. But the type of character Andre Dirrell is it makes it feel very suspect. And then when these two have purposely been trying to avoid each other the entire time until Showtime threaten them with a lawsuit. And how come Dirrell's camp now says he has been having these problems since the AA fight but weren't talking about it before?

[wazaa.]

No..just no.

Read again. Dirrell underwent CAT scans, MRI's and MRA's and the doctor determined from there that Dirrell is unable to fight.

I didn't read that in the article. It says the neurologist "determined". Nothing more nothing less.

[wazaa.]

You can't even spell the word, yet you're trying to tell us how a neurologist would conduct himself.

Crawl back under your hole you filler fan.

you know what I meant.

exactly..... too many coincidences.

Dirrell is the new Cintron

Like I said, he's too fragile.

Look at Vazquez/Marquez. Look at Valero, he wasn't cleared to fight in the U.S and said **** it, I'm gonna fight in other countries.

Too fragile? How tough a fighter is has nothing to do with how their brain reacts to sudden blunt force trauma it could have happened to anyone. Jesus man look at this from a medical standpoint and not as a stubborn boxing fan.

How do I know?

It's possible he didn't think it was a major problem up until now, went to a DR to see what they thought... and the DR found something more serious than Dirrell may have thought...

None of us are doctors, none of us are going to the hospital with him, or living with him to see what his symptoms are..

I know this... I know what I saw after that fight, and Dirrell was out of his mind.. you can call it acting... but the dude was apologizing for losing the fight, he didn't even know he won..

In this particular scenario, I most definitely give him the benefit of the doubt..

I could care less about this fight. I'm happy its not happening cuz' I knew it would be terrible if it happened.

I just don't believe him, or Ward. I don't trust them.

If he's really hurt, well then sayonara. Get well, but I'm not gonna pretend I miss him cuz' I couldn't stand watching him "fight" to begin with.
