Comments Thread For: Anthony Dirrell-Badou Jack Approved For April 24

[Pigeons]

This fight isn't even that bad I don't get the complaints. Jack has one loss in his career where he got caught early in a fight and couldn't recover. One loss doesn't make you a bum. It's a decent fight. It's not terrible or great.

The trolls hate undefeated fighters because it means they haven't fought anyone. Then they hate fighters with losses because only bums take losses.

I don't like the fight because I don't think Jack's beaten anyone of note, but the trolls amuse me.

yes but how many good wins does he have? zero. ko'd in one by a journeyman and a draw with periban. not looking very sharp.

being that jack is a slick guy who can use the ring with lots of skill they would likely not fight him..and go for a bigger money fight..the best of jack surely beats froch..

Best of jack couldn't even make t out of the first round against Edwards

Yall complain about every damn thing...typical boxing fans. My thing is, before the two Bika fights...who had Dirrell fought? Nobody

Guys are raising a stink because Jack is a TMT fighter. If fighters are matched carefully, they're "hypejobs". If they lose a fight, they're "hypejobs" and they need to "hang 'em up".

THIS is why promoters match guys carefully and don't put them in with the best. I'm not saying that Jack is a top tier opponent, but I'd rather see Dirrell in against him, than some can-kicker that nobody knows about.

Pissing & moaning as usual though....carry on.

He's 0-1-1 against his best two opponents. Got knocked out in what was supposed to be a showcase fight but turned out to be a career Edwards highlight. Clearly worthy of a title shot on TV.

I agree. Agnew or Caparello would be worthier.

While I do agree, the draw against Periban I felt was pretty tough on Jack. I thought he took the decision against a sloppy Periban. That being said he isn't really worthy of a title shot and I believe Dirrell will handle him with ease.

Jack is in the Top 10 and one fight away from being a mandatory before the KO. Whats wrong with this as a defense before Groves?

Bute was #2 before Froch KO him. Where's Bute now?

[Rip Chudd]

not a bad fight

Please tell me you're trolling

[nycsmooth]

good fight on free tv but can't c Jack winning this....
