Newbie wants to know: If Dirrell had stayed..
Do you think he would have cemented himself as a contending SuperMidwt.?
Personally,
I support Dirrell, even though he did embarrass himself against Froch...
anddd
a little bit against Abraham lmao
But if he stayed against Ward,
what do you think the outcome would have been..?
I think Ward is a boring fighter even though I respect him being a good South Paw
-however, boring stems from his stability and his jab
& that Son-of-God thing, no offense.
Dirrell is a bit more athletic, less decisive, more physical.
I don't think he would've cracked Ward though.
I don't feel bad for Green losing either, just putting that in there
-he's a bum. Go home.
Re: Newbie wants to know: If Dirrell had stayed..
I think it would have been a great fight. I think Ward would have taken a close decision because of his boxing skills. And for Allen Green, i agree. He should have never been involved in the SS to begin with, he will be regulated to gatekeeper, him and Edison Miranda.
Re: Newbie wants to know: If Dirrell had stayed..
I like Dirrell's ability, but I've lost a lot of respect for him through this whole issue with him pulling out the Super Six. I find it very hard to believe that he has a mood changing brain disorder that took 6-7 months to come out, and will be cleared in 3 months for him to fight again.
But as a fighter I think he would have been a contender, he has great athleticism and ability, and I think he would have beaten Ward, albeit in a really close fight.
I also found Green to be quite likable, and felt bad seeing him KO'd, but he should never have been in that tournament, he's just nowhere near the level of the other guys in there, so in that regard I'm not sad to see him out
Re: Newbie wants to know: If Dirrell had stayed..
Direll is no worse than the rest of them, all these guys wine, bitch, and scheme their way in and out of fights on a daily basis. Direll is a good fighter all the guys in the tourny are. He damn near and i some peoples opinion beat froch, he beat the crap out of abraham so he's at least as good as or better than most. Dirells sneaky bs is bad but so is this whole sport as a whole, but we keep buying tickets and ppv's myself included, so what do you expect. ...
Re: Newbie wants to know: If Dirrell had stayed..
I don't see where Dirrell pressed either of them.
Well, he sure did press
but how effective was it?
Not very much.
Froch is a robot
&Abraham is like the freakin' Terminator, with that titanium-plate jaw
(Ugh I hate him.)
I'm kind of glad Dirrell is gone though-
my mother says she would hate to see that nice face get messed up. ^.~
