Where does Andre Dirrell go from here?

The Matrix deserves props for taking out Cunningham as early as he did cuz dude was no bum. Cunningham was supposed to face Pavlik before the drunk pulled out months ago and that fight sure wouldn't have ended as early.

Rant mentioned Bika. I suppose that's a good fight that'll test his nerves. Or he can face Allan Green at which ever weight cuz I remember he was pissed off by Green's comment of him being a quitter etc etc lol.. Dirrell claimed he was going to hurt Green the last i heard.

He should eventually work his way to a big name like Lucian Bute cuz he has the tools and the style to win that one fairly easily...

He needs a couple fights before taking on Ward but shit if he can get it, so be it. I think Dirrell is the only guy with the style that matches Ward's...

I thought it had been established that Ward and Dirrell are very unlikely to fight each other.

If ward and Dirrell don't fight then American boxing is corrupt and ward both should lose their licences forever. If you choose to avoid a fight and put ur family second then ur scum.

Nothing has been established and you were misinformed. I understand there are fighters who are such good friends such as Montiel-Arce that a fight between them would never materalize but Dirrell and Ward aren't like that at all. Dirrell has mentioned many times and even recently that he wants a shot at Ward and Ward made a statement few days ago saying that Dirrell must earn his shot first..

Andre Ward is the main man of his division and Dirrell wouldn't hesitate to fight him. He's not going to turn down that golden opportunity to take the throne.. This is business and these two guys dont love each other like that..

Ward-Dirrell is the must..

A look at Andre Dirrell's twitter account should be enough to disprove any rumours that he wants nothing to do with Ward. He might beat him too.

Since the fight was set to take place back in September/October 2010 I've felt Dirrell can and will beat Ward. I hope we do get to see it although Dirrell does need to work his way into contention first to get the shot.

Exactly..

When did Dirrell gain so much love on this Forum? It wasn't that long ago that many people were talking crap for him running in the Froch fight, then again for possibly faking in the Abraham fight. I think Dirrell is very talented, but the guy just fought for the first time in 21 months, and now he's gonna beat Ward? I agree he does have a the skill set to beat Ward, but let's see how his next fight goes then we can talk about a possible fight with Andre Ward.

With that being said with Froch, Bute, Kessler etc. being busy, i would say Bika, Andrade, Magee.

Actually, Dirrell had many believers up until the Abraham fight when people started getting off the bandwagon, callin him a faker etc etc..

Nobody said he's going to beat Ward right now. He still needs some fights to shake off the rust but like you said, he has the skills to beat Ward..

Bika is a fair matchup but guys like Andrade and MAgee are recycled stepping stones at this point and they are not going to teach Dirrell anything. It's a waste of time..

True, the same could be said for Bika as well.

On aside note who thinks Magee vs Andrade would be fun to watch

[ono]

He could always go into acting. He's quite good at that.
