Comments Thread For: Dirrell's Trainer: Andre Could Have Been Left a Vegetable

[starsjuicebar]

Dirrell fights scared and now this makes him look scary, this will lower his stock in the public eye.

[Lorily]

As much as I believe that neither Andre wanted to fight each other, there were many other "injury" excuses they could have used that would have been a lot easier than this one. Boxing commisions take brain injuries very seriously. To come out with a neurological problem is the last excuse a fighter would want to use in this day and age if it were untrue. He will have a hard time being approved for a fight now, or for a long time, even if he wants to. I just don't think they would have used an excuse this serious if they had any intentions of continuing on any time soon with Dirrells fighting career.

My favourites JT and AD are in a vulnerable position right now.

If he is seriously hurt and can't really fight, then retire and live a long, healthy life- my sincerest apologies for my comments. If it is all a lie to avoid a fight with Ward right now (which is definitely what I think), he deserves to never fight again because he would be a deceitful scumbag who needs to be an actor, not a boxer.

Why avoid Ward? If it was a rematch with Abraham then you could start questioning the event in Dirrell's camp but why avoid Ward on purpose? Dirrell has great chance against Ward who fights in similar style.

Not sure if they just chatting **** or not to9 make him not to be a cry baby and faker, but if it is rel, then I hope he gets fixed.

I don't think people realize just how ****** it is to think he is faking this. If he wanted out of the Ward fight, he could have come up with millions of other excuses that won't have anything close to the backlash this would.

Head injuries follow an athlete their entire careers, and Dirrell will constantly have to be evaluated and go through a lot of trouble before any fights he potentially fights in the future to make sure he is not at risk.

Thank you, someone f**king gets it. He won't be allowed to just come back in three months and fight again.

Yeah, rightful back in 1928. If you've read the rules and regulations recently then no, it's not a rightful KO, it's a disqualification and rightly so.

really? post a link that says that hatton passed tests to rule out a POSSIBLE concussion. you understand why i cap "possible," right?
they ran tests to see if a concussion had OCCURRED.
even with my untrained medical eye, im pretty sure hatton suffered a concussion....not so much with dirrell.

im done though, man. its late. keep fighting the fraudulent fight.

There is no such thing as a concussion test ****tard.
