    I never really liked Dirrell's style or demeanor in the ring. He has a way of putting up a real stinker against opponents with any sort of come forward style & ties up too much etc

            His performance against Abraham was a stinker? Unfortunately it ended the way it did, but Dirrell had put on a great performance until then. Also, who is "they"?...I think I know, but I want to see what you have to say about that one.

              Dirrell does not have enough heart or killer instinct to be an elite...his athleticism can take hime far - as it already has, but he WILL get knocked if his matches arent taylor-made for him.

                Nothing new here. Floyd and Sr. are the epitome of the ***********al father/son combo.

                  Dirrell and 50 approached Mayweather Sr. about training Dirrell long time ago, in the middle of the summer. This all was scheduled and planned before Mayweather Jr. even came out of jail. Also, Mayweather Sr. said recently that he wasn't even aware that 50 and his son had any problems.
