Dirrell's first fight in 21 months took place in a practically empty venue, early in the afternoon local time, on the non-televised portion of the Tony Harrison-Jermell Charlo undercard at Toyota Arena.

He should fight another soft touch or two to build up his confidence and get some momentum rolling. Then go after the bigger fish.

Good for Dirrell. He knocked out a guy who got knocked out by a junior middleweight recently.

Well unfortunately one of ur favorite fighters basically quit that night against the uzi. He got frustrated losing that fight especially in that last rd u could tell he was throwing everything into his punches but the uzi was eating them like nothin then I remember specifically he looked hurt mentally like he quit his body language said it all when Virgil was tryin to talk to him that night so I can't respect his fight in him anymore. I had thought with him an his brothers vast pedigree in the sport they would never go out like that but he was deeply discouraged like an amateur fighter giving up realizing he's losing a fight with nothin goin his way. We'll see what he does from here on out especially moving up in weight which I think was a mistake

Building him up for what Benavirez/Plant
