    Default Dirrell vs froch 2.

    Who cares about kessler..froch will beat him and would have beaten him the first time on neutral grounds.

    Froch is alot better now but i still feel he lost to andre in there first bout.

    Is mr hearn keeping froch away from the mini andre as this is too much of a risky fight?

    I know andre dirrell is not thought upon that greatly but i would like to see this as a pre andre ward fight.

    I like froch attitude and strong warrior type style but theres a certain style he has issues with and im looking forward to see if can ADAPT this time around.

    The Kessler fight is a good fun fight that lots of fans want to see. The first fight was close and could go either way so we need to see a decisive winner!

    The Dirrell fight was boring and uneventful. We watched Froch chase Dirrell around the ring for 12 rounds. It was a very close fight and Froch was lucky to get it but really do we want to see that again?

    Dirrell has done nothing recently and doesn't deserve a rematch.does he even want to fight Carl just now very much doubt it.the Kessler fight appeals to every 1 and it's defo not a easy fight for froch but 1 I think he will win.

    No he doesn't he made the first fight a spoiler and he hasn't done anything at all of late. I can't even remember the last time he had a fight and he has done nothing of note to merit a rematch. He holds no belt and has had one fight since the injury to Abraham. I don't even think he had one fight in 2012. He's a waste of talent, but no I don't think he deserves another shot at Froch, Froch has bigger fish to fry. That's why he's fighting Kessler and if he gets through the fight he will hopefully fight Ward.

    Dirrell had a lot of management problems. At least he is sorted now and being trained by by floyd mayweather sr.

    I think dirrell can still put himself in the mix this year if he keeps himself busy.

    Ward biggest threat could still be carl froch. I just would like to see the rematch with dirrel first..

    Froch will stay clear of it though I doubt he wants to fight somebody who was so negative for the whole fight. I'd like to see Dirrell get back In the mix because he's not done anything for years.

    Dirrell is never going to get the chance to fight Froch again. Frankly, I don't really want to see that fight because the first one wasn't fun to watch.

    I want Dirrell to face Ward. I get the feeling a little bit like Ward is ducking Dirrell. Not outright ducking, but like given the risk/reward, he won't face him. Why else would Ward angle for a fight with Froch or Kessler when he already beat them? If Bute had beat Froch, Bute would have been a logical opponent, but other than that, Dirrell is the only super middleweight worth a damn for legacy sake that Ward hasn't faced. On the flip side of the coin, Dirrell hasn't done jack in the last two years. He needs to get his name back on television against good names.

    The first fight wasn't close, it just stunk. There was no way to actually give it to Froch imo. Having said that I don't think Dirrell "deserves" any sort of big fight until he makes some noise, if he even plans to.

    It's unlikely he'll get them, but either Bute or Pavlik would be Dirrells best shot chance to really put himself in the spotlight this year imo. I'm not sure whether Ward still plans to fight Pavlik after his injury heals or if Bute might fight him instead? Either way Direll vs the odd man out there would be good to see happen.

    But, why would Bute or Pavlik ever fight Dirrell? It makes zero sense. They are two super middleweights who actually have followings and brand names. Ward would jump at the chance to face either of them and they make more money facing Ward.

    Oh for sure, as I said it's unlikely. Not sure whether Pavlik really does have much a name left though, if so, why he was to fight Ward without really settling into the weight class or fighting anyone close to that level first? That always struck me a desperate cash out, although Ward doesn't sell much himself.
    I haven't seen Direll fight since the Abraham fiasco, surely there's a chance he'd be rusty or even possibly affected by the supposed brain injury. Either way he's still a lot more beatable than Ward for someone who can punch.

    Dirrell is finished as an elite fighter. Abraham destroyed him and as a fighter he's a shadow of his past self.

    The crowd were booing during a Froch fight (and they weren't booing him). That says it all.

    I read a while ago direll does not want a rematch. I dont get why ppl are so high on Direll, He lost against the cobra, quit and crumbled against MW Abraham and has not been seen since!
