It's Anthony Dirrell, not Andre since you are mentioning damage.

Im a huge fan of Andre The Matrix but it's hard to figure out where his head is at. But Andre Dirrell on a normal day would beat the crap out of Bika and Dr Shahai would agree.

Win over Hanshaw gets you a title fight. Who knew. Honestly he makes Ward look like Evander Holyfield. I think Bika, a full throttle Bika, beats the teers outta him.

Yeah, the other guy's andre dirrell who's a disgrace to the sport...

Some guys you just never care to see stink out a boxing ring ever again.
The constant cry@$$ing to the ref against Froch, the acting job against Abraham, andre dirrell has no Heart. Normally that's no problem as Boxing needs and is built on lower-tier ham-and-egger types who have no illusions nor delusions about their place in the pecking order, but it's bull$#!t when some promoter tries to sell you a guy in the main event who is clearly NOT The Goods...

Anthony Dirrell is the one who was in the Boxing news a few years back because he had lymphoma, a type of cancer.

This is a tough one. I think Bika takes this by a very close decision. Possibly split or majority or even a draw is possible

Enough of the Andre Dirrell hate.

Enough of the Andre Dirrell hate.

not hate . He is wasting his career. He has major!!! talent, but does he have heart?

[ruthless rocco]

Bika KO.

He showed pure heart against Froch and abraham. He was like archie moore and a prime holyb all on the same night.

The Matrix is the bestb fighter at 168 if he puts it all together.

Now pull my other leg too, this one plays the rumba!

[AdamGB]

Being allowed to constantly, ilegally bend your head below your opponents waist and clinch do not make a fighter great.

I don't find that statement insane part of why I dislike him is the talent he threw away.

I agree. Finito isn't way off with that statement. Nothing insane about it all. Outside of Ward I see what he is saying quite clearly. Dirrell was the lion on the Wizard of Oz. Dude has beastly talent but nothing inside to fuel it. I always thought he would be the only guy to possibly beat Ward without the lucky punch variable. Andre Dirrell just doesn't have the heart at all...but his brother does. But his brother is a bit less talented. But not enough to sleep on though because he will beat Bika. Bradllee, can you agree that Andre is physically the most talented 168er? Its just that Andre fights so unsure of himself it pisses people off because it appears he is the only one unaware of his physical capabilities.
