Dirrel is laughable.

Him refusing to give credit to James just shows how severely childish he is. Anyone with a hint of world class talent would of had dégale seeing stars from 6-10. Good fight though both exchanged in early rounds well and thought degales first knockdown was a cracker, lost respect for Andre after his antics. Don't think dégale will be champion long especially if he says he's going to tackle the best but onwards and upwards for him certainly!!

direll is really talented i just dont know why he isnt consistent when he does good work. in the froch fight he was outboxing froch then he started running and doing other stuff. i think degale won this fight by 2 points but he could have won if he put a bit more effort in.

It made me laugh when Dirrell of all people accused DeGale of "running away".

It's like Lara getting outboxed by someone with a similar style then writing an open letter outraged that his opponent didn't stand and trade like a man.

I hope Dirrell can deal with this loss and bounce back stronger. James DeGale was the better man that night.

Dirrell is a sore loser and a cry baby. He clearly lost a close fight because Degale knocked him down twice for a 10-7 round and Degale won the 11th and 12th rounds. Dirrell showed more heart than I thought he had by winning many of the middle rounds but that was not enough to win the fight. Dirrell said Degale did nothing but run. That's a strange statement from a fighter who was knocked down twice and did some running himself.

Hope they check him properly after the fight, I was a bit concern for him mid rounds when he was looking downwards at his shoes.

Dirrell biggest problem is he was concussed and not thinking straight, he got knocked down very bad and was hurt badly early in that fight. So he was disillusioned. I was shocked they gave the decision to Degale, a non haymon fighter. Degale was hurting Dirrell bad in that fight and I felt Degale would get robbed but glad he didn't.

Degale is better as a pressure fighter, he needs to work on his stamina and just focus on pressure fighting he has a slipper style and awkward power shots. If he focuses on pressure and hurting guys he will be a huge draw especially sincce he is a former Gold medalist and now a world champ.
