Thread: Andre Dirrell....

I have no clue who was banned and who was booed for having this opinion, but I'm in agreement with those who suspected Dirrell of faking the funk.

I don't no man. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. He seemed pretty distraught afterwards

I dont know what to think about that he seem's to look around before he went down but then he was like twitching, I still can believe Abraham lost

He was faking it. It was obvious. Don't blame him really though. It was a cheap shot and he was running out of gas. Once he went down he kinda had to stick with what he was doing. Unfortunately that included an over the top acting performance that even the doctor and the broadcast team got in on.

1) - You don't wince in pain, grab your face and then fall unconscious. Sorry, but you don't.

2) - You don't 'wake up' confused and then suddenly remember exactly how you got knocked out, just because somebody told you what happened.

3) - When recovering from convulsions brought on by a KO, it's unlikely that you will react to something somebody has said in the crowd. It's unlikely that you would even notice, unless you're overly sensitive to something.....criticism of his acting skills perhaps.

4) - The Dr wouldn't break from treating him to conduct an interview with the broadcaster if Dirrell had a suspected brain bleed.

5) It's also highly, highly likely that a concusion would show up on a scan, which he had, and surprisingly everything was perfect. Again, weird considering he was convulsing from being brutally ko'd just a few hours earlier.

Nice to see someone has sense, it was a fucking farce!

Yeah tell me about it! Hopkins and Dirrell in my personal opinion are giving people ideas. If they can get away with this shit, it's gonna happen again. I want to see it stamped out right now!

Abraham hit him with a dirty shot which ended a fight that he was losing horribly, end of

Since when were you a fucking doctor? I spoke to a neurologist who boxes at my gym about the fight, and she said under no uncertain terms that it looked exactly like a concussion, and there is often a delayed response when somebody gets knocked out.

We've seen it in boxing a few times. He didn't knock him out, but watch Roy's first knockdown of Felix Trinidad and that came quite a bit after he landed the punch.

He was dominating the fight except for the tenth, and maybe you guys should watch the 11th again because he didn't look tired in that round at all.

In my opinion Abraham was getting closer and closer, landing more and I think he had a good shot of landing one of those left hooks that Dirrell was barely getting away from (while begging to be iced, terrible defense), I don't know if he faked and you definitely can't say he did for sure. The touching of his face was in slow mo it looked suspicous, in real time it didn't look out of the ordinary to me.

THere is plenty of evidence in boxing itself of delated responses to being knocked out or concussed. Abraham was getting close, and he had Dirrel stunned in the 10th, but Dirrell only went down there it looked because he tripped on Abraham's foot. Sure Abraham was catching DIrrell with a few punches, but DIrrell didn't look hurt by any of them in the 11th, and there was absolutely no reason for him to give up in the fight he didn't look tired, from what I've read and heard he works out exceptionally hard, and he showed it at the end of hte Froch fight, and he looked in good shape in this fight as well. Abraham was getting close, but it was too little too late, and I think Dirrell was adjusting to it also in the 11th and he was avoiding shots better than in the 10th were it caught him by surprise.

I don't need to be a doctor to understand when somebody is feigning injury. Not when they do it as ridiculously as that.
