I want to see Mile high Mike make a comeback. I also hope he puts Rios down early, Rios can't afford many more hits

Andre Dirrell. I picked him to win the S6. Why does talent and primadonna always seem to go hand and hand.

Good call, I think 5 dimes messed him up. 10 nickels, 50 cent whoever he is..thought he could go from hiphop mogul to promoter and got blacklisted and sidelined the matrix.
I saw Dirrell fight live and his speed in person is just phenomenal. Plus he can crack.

You certainly don't see that many gifted southpaws, the last one being the Goat at 168 Joe Calzaghe.
I'm talking boxing ability not tin collecting. Being left handed is advantage enough in many cases but when you add that kind of skill and speed you have something pretty special. However none of that can compensate for a lousy mind set or sense of entitlement. I often wished Andre had his brother Anthony's drive who I might add could also use a little kick in the ass.

True. While I think Dirrell dropping out of the Super-Six had something to do with fighting Ward (without $$) coming, I do acknowledge that he was knocked unconscious by Abraham.
I was around the 7th row & as Dirrell gained his faculties --his wife of all people hollered at Arthur (Coward!) Dirrell had no clue and thought someone said it about him..
The telecast -then shows him hollerin' "Who called me a coward"
Funniest part was his Brother Anthony silenced him & said:
"Quit actin' like a bitch":mad:
Andre: "yeah....o.k..":eek:
A brawl almost ensued because their cousin was motioning with his elbow- that Arthur may have knocked him out that way...shit got scary for a moment, but it calmed down. (this was broke-Ass Detroit we're talkin' 'bout)
Little tidbit- the camera work -when I got home was excellent as- 1/2 the Joe Louis Arena was empty, but Showtime zoomed in on certain shots and only showed the side of the arena that was full.

Thompson was one of the best American Heavies, age has just got him now.
I like Arreola and Thompson better than Wilder because they WANT to fight poms and euros.
I have a feeling the way things are looking now, the HW title is gonna be like the Roman Empire now, divided into West and East with no unification in sight! :(

i think that 2015 is an appropriate year for Floyd to consider digging up 'Homocide' Henry Armstrong as his next opponent.
Not only would he be moving up a weight division, but he's also been dead for 27 years ... sounds perfect!
Re: What fighter you "hope" revives their career in 2015?
My prayers heard!
Canelo vs Kirkland almost done!
