Comments Thread For: Andre Dirrell To Return in The Fall, Likely On ESPN

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Super middleweight contender Andre Dirrell (19-1, 13KOs) advised BoxingScene.com that he plans to return in late October or early November, with ESPN televising the fight. Dirrell has been inactive while rehabilitating a head injury, which he suffered in his March 2010 Super Six bout with Arthur Abraham. During the eleventh round, Dirrell slipped to the canvas and Abraham punched him while he was down. The blow knocked Dirrell out and got Abraham disqualified. The post-fight injuries forced Dirrell to withdraw from the Super Six tournament.

LOL brilliant. I'm sure if he explains that his seizure in the ring was just faked the networks will give him another chance. Dirrell was completely disappointing in the super 6. I don't trust his heart after the quit job against AA, such a poor choice on his part for his career.

This guy was good enough to beat Carl Froch and was also the first to expose Arthur Abraham. I for one am glad to see him back, I just hope he is healed up and healthy.

He should rematch Curtis Stevens.

He should try and make up for that dreadful performance.

Dr. Shaw High has invented a cure to miraculously heal severe brain-injuries. I hear he's in line for a Nobel-prize.

I wish Rick Reeno had asked some more into this injury. For example it would be nice to know if Dirrell is completely cured or there is a risk of the injury to reopen.

I thought this faggot had a brain injury.

Fucking bitchmade loser.
