    Similar fighters in terms of skill set and levels but I think DeGale has more grit in him, more dog, he'll put pressure on Dirrell and win by a close UD.

      Interesting -- I didn't know that. I think Anthony beats him decisively but still an intriguing style matchup.

        Or even stops him.

          No, DeGale doesn't have the pop to stop Dirrell, not that he can't punch, just that it's not enough to seriously hurt Andre.

            I beg to differ. I think he does. Dirrell's chin is shot IMO. Could be wrong but don't like what I saw in his last bout.

              I saw Andre Dirrell hurt late in his last fight by a guy with a 43% KO ratio. Dirrell doesn't look the same fighter.

                So long as the officials are fair, Dirrell sneaks this.

                  I was always jesting... It dates way back -- since you assumed I wasn't aware what "Zamunda" actually means. I let you enjoy your moment...

                  In fact I'm a big Eddie Murphy's fan -- since "Best Defense" (i.e. way back in 1984, when i suspect you were a kid). That movie is quite low rated...

                    Let me? You're such a clown Explains why you're "always jesting."

                    Carry on.

                      Use the "carry on" syntagm with your subordinates in case they exist, dear...
                      I'm retired from the army for a while now. And I don't think you hold a high rank in a civilised army force (Zamunda excluded).
                      Have a good day.
