I totally agree that his performance vs Froch was a shambles but I was super impressed by him upto the end against Abraham. I thought he boxed the perfect fight and beforehand I expected Arthur to catch him around the middle rounds and then destroy him. I was wrong. Very wrong. Dirrell showed me he has got real quality in that fight.
I try to think past his acting and try and appreciate what he did beforehand and then look forward to his next fight. When all is said and done he HAS to win and I see him impressing again.
He was very good up until the last few rounds, he looked like he was in complete control until he got hit with that one big shot, then he looked a little shaken and seemed like he was going to go into his shell again.
I was suprised by how one sided most the fight was in his favour.
Will Froch learn from that and outbox Abraham? I doubt it.
