    Default The Matrix Andre Dirrell.. His latest bout plus his Olympic match with GGG

    This guy is too talented to be wasting his prime years like this. He reminds me of a watered down Roy Jones Jr..

    You need to have it mentally as well as physically and he hasn't got it mentally.

    Unfortunately, I believe @Kirkland Laing might be correct.

    There it is from Kirkland Laing.

    Joshua Clottey and James Buster Douglas were like that too.

    I think some of us need to be reminded of what this man is capable of. And let me just add that heart and desire two different things imo..

    Dirrell made a huge leap up in class by fighting Carl Froch on his biggest stage and dude did well enough to win in many people's eyes so how does he not have heart?




    Leading up the Abraham bout, very few gave him a chance. They said he was going to run, they said he wouldnt be able to handle the pressure of Abe but he actually surprised many people by doing the opposite.




    Alot of people question his heart because he's refusing to stay active but I dont his inactivity is an indication of what his heart his made of. Maybe he's just lost interest for awhile or perhaps he's struggling to find what he wants but at least in the heat of battle in his biggest fights, he did show plenty of heart.

    The Matrix Dirrell is just crazy with it

    I sure had high hopes for the guy. You don't get the chance to see that many naturally gifted southpaws over a lifetime. Maybe its genetics or something because they all seem to mentally fold. Judah, Harrison, Andre. To bad he never had his brothers heart and soul or Anthony his skills.

    Judah was the undisputed welterweight champion and won 2 junior welterweight belts also he fought 4 sure hall of famers, it's ridiculous to compare Zab to Dirrell.

    Take a pill. I was not comparing them per say. I simply said they are all mentally weak. Long on skill and short on cortex.

    Kind of a myth if he had ducked Kosta history would be different.
