LOL, what?

[HAY-B]

not a bad fight

I gotta disagree with you on this one. There is no way Badou Jack is going to beat Dirrell. To me this is a true soft touch for Dirrell. Jack is still shook from that KO, besides that I don't think he's ever faced someone that is as quick as Dirrell. This is not a competitive fight IMO. I think Jack get KO'd again. I would be shocked if this fight goes past 5 rounds.

But...... I'm still going to watch it. LOL

Who's Badou Jack? Here's all you need to know:

Decent matchup. Badou Jack is probably the best fighter on Mayweathers stable. He just got caught by Edwards, who btw almost knocked out Andre Dirrell in the 12th round.

What a freaking joke of a fight.

[Beercules]

really easy fight for Dirrell.
