Re: Andre Dirrell Chaos!!! - DQ/Sucker Punch/Rozzers/Uzcategui's Granite Bonce
Unless the vids im seeing have lag between the audio and video, the first shot that puts him on queer street sounds like it connected with the bell. The second one was just a nasty punch and looks horrible mostly because dirrell was in a vulnerable state. I think the bell run a second and a half later, everyone would be talking about what a quality ko that was, because truly it would have found dirrell with or without the bell. Every trainer the guys had has told him to stay off the ropes and dirrell just has a knack for getting hit by these types of punches. Maybe he was waiting for the bell and already relaxed for his stroll back to his corner. A +1 for the protect yourself at all times comment. Dirrell always seems liked the type of fighter who loved to put it on someone... but when the going got tough, he wasn't really feeling that sh*t and wanted a quick and easy way out (even if that means playing the victim. )
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
