**** Dirrell, the boxing world is better off without him.Comment

I didn't like the way he pulled out of the Ward fight, but that doesn't change the fact that he's about 1000x more skillful than the brawlers Bute usually faces.
I wouldn't mind seeing him face Jermain Taylor, to see how they've both come back from the lay offs. The winner would be in a good position to face whichever one of Bute/Kessler doesn't fight the Super Six winner.
Very wishful thinking there, but it's something Dirrell could perhaps aim for.Comment

Now that's an interesting fight.Real talk.People rate Bute highly.Dirrel arguably made Froch look like an amateur.This fight would reveal a lot of things about both fighters that we really don't know.
Can Bute handle a fighter with genuinly decent boxing skills.Better than anyone on his resume??Can Dirrel box without looking like he's running a marathon??I say make the fight.I'd love to see it.Comment
