Speaking of the Dirrells – where's Uzcategui? He should be fighting DeGale.

Benavidez is gonna retire this bum Dirrell for good!

Bad night for Dirrell. He's been hanging around for too long anyway fighting garbage opponents. Time to close this chapter. Hoping for a stoppage.

Benavidez by body shots

People are mistaking Anthony Dirrell for Andre Dirrell......

[nycsmooth]

Dirrell is not as good as his record shows and I think Benavidez is good enough to be him.... still this is not a top level championship fight...

Dirrels been looking beasts and probably would have won a rematch vs jack.

I was hoping for Uzcategui, but OK. I'm good! Now what does Uzcategui do? Is the IBF going to order DeGale vs. Uzcategui? What's the delay about? Let's Go!
