    There's no doubt he should be starring in the West End. His acting ability is second to none.
    Back by popular demand!

    I actually think he's a pretty talented guy... but he needs to change his mentality a little bit. He put on a bit of a stinker versus Froch but other than the ending against Abraham you couldn't really complain about the fight itself.

    Bad against Froch and didn't carry himself all that well after the Abraham loss, but he's still learning the fight game to an extent and I reckon once he matures a little more he could do big things.

    I think POB said it best... very athletic, good speed, solid power movement etc, pretty well schooled to boot... just needs to sort his head a little.

    You have guys like Hatton binge drinking between fights and falling shorter than they should of, guys bitching over twitter like children, guys knocking their spouses about, prospects and even champs fighting bum after bum and ducking fighters left and right... you can hardly call Dirrell the worst thing in boxing.

    What does he do that is that bad? being negative once when you're a relative novice at world level and getting emotional about something that your heart is in (after receiving concussive shots to the head and having adrenalin shooting about ) may not be great but they're hardly sac religious either.

    I agree with pretty much everything in this post.
