Comments Thread For: Andre Dirrell Looks To Make His Return in December

[junior gong]

Very strange character is Dirrell from what I see. All the talent in the world but appears to be either slightly mad or slightly dumb. He has great potential and if he had a good dig and a better head on his shoulders he would be lethal, sadly he seems to be lacking in those areas.

I think Dirrell should move down to 160 and go after Martinez...if he can make the weight!

I am a fan of the Matrix though, he has excellent boxing SKILLS

[Ringlife]

I think he does have the boxing skills to be good but I think he has the mental weakness in his mind like Zab Judah.

[Drunk Punch]

Talent aplenty but does he have the heart for championship boxing?

[apunchnotseen]

No T.V. wants a contract weasel like you Matrix.

I think the injury was real.

Nobody would fake that and risk earning good money for a year and a half. And kill their career at it at the same time.

Dr. Shaw HI approves of this message

Boxing "fans" never cease to disgust me.

Imo, the guy probably shouldn't be fighting. To react the way he did to that shot would seem, intuitively at least, symptomatic of a larger issue (though I am no neuro surgeon, to be sure). Imho, guys with a proven history of brain damage shouldn't really be professionally boxing.

But, the guy has an opportunity to make money, and probably doesn't have many other ways about it. I can understand it, but I don't like it.
