According to his boxrec profile. This is news to me. Think about the possibilities.
Dirrell vs Stevenson
Dirrell vs Kovalev
Dirrell vs Pascal

He needs to start with Bute. Actually, if Bika beats his brother, he should go after Bika.

With his activity level I'd be hesitant to suggest he's campaigning in any weight division. Lets see him fight twice in a 12 month period first.

Those kinds of fantasy match-ups are a distant dream after we see how he performs in the course of his comeback trail. I wouldn't assume that Dirrell is at or can ever return to 100%.

Andre fought a catchweight fight of 172 to accommodate his late replacement opponent. That is just 4# over the SMW limit. He will be boxing at 168.

He called out Froch after his last fight, so, seems to me he's still wanting to fight @ 168.

I think he said he wants Froch, but is willing to fight at 175.

I agree with a previous statement. Let's see Dirrell fight more than once every two years before we start any serious matchmaking.

I do think that if he and Ward ever do fight, it will be a few years down the line at 175.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Andre Dirrell back in the ring this fall. He is very talented and will be fighting for a world title in 2015.
