Abraham camp to protest DQ accuses Dirrel of acting
Team Sauerland plans to officially protest Arthur Abraham’s DQ loss to Andre Dirrell on Saturday night. “After a slow start, Arthur was finally landing his power punches,” promoter Wilfried Sauerland said. “He clearly knocked Dirrell down in the tenth and was following it up in the 11th. There is no way Dirrell would have seen the end of the 12th round.” After reviewing the tape, Sauerland stated that a clearly exhausted Dirrell seized his chance to sneak out of the fight when the chance presented itself, especially with Abraham upping pressure before the ending. “The TV pictures indicate that Dirrell was down, but there is no way Arthur could have realized that in the heat of the moment. He was just trying to keep up the attack. However, Dirrell is a very good actor. We are glad that his check-up at the hospital turned out just fine but frankly we did not expect any other outcome since he was just acting. He deserves an Oscar for his performance.”
The 26-year-old American was taken to hospital after the fight. “I wish him all the best and hope he is fine,” Abraham said. “I thought I could still punch because the referee did not stop us. In the heat of the moment I was not watching his feet but only his head. As a professional boxer, you always try and make pressure.”
Abraham said it was a very competitive fight. “I am a slow starter,” he added. “That is how I fight. But I picked up in the later rounds and connected.” Abraham was knocked down for the first time his career in the fourth but returned the favor in the tenth when he floored Dirrell, although no knockdown was credited.
Boxing: Dirrell accused of acting
You've got to be kidding me
Re: Abraham camp to protest DQ accuses Dirrel of acting
That's not the most empathetic response I've ever seen...
Re: Abraham camp to protest DQ accuses Dirrel of acting
Well, this is an easy case. You can't prove he was acting, even if he was, no matter how much tape you look at. But you can prove it was an illegal blow and a clear foul.

Typical Brit. Oh I don't like body punches, I'll act like I was hit low 43 times.

Those European commies are all the same anyways.
AA's camp can protest all they want, nothing is going to change.

Being hit in the back of the head, while facing down, on your hands, and knees with a punch you did not see, by one of the hardest punchers in the boxing world- I dont know why anyone has a hard time believing that this really hurt.

Actually the first part was kind of a lie, seeing as I am part-Italian.
Anyway, I am no fascist. I am a guerilla revolutionary defending my brother Andre Dirrell from the oppressive punching of the Armenian/German hate machine.

That's just, like, your opinion, man. Its possible that you're right. Who cares anyway. The point remains the same. BRITS/EUROPEANS DON"T LIKE IT TO THE BODY. Fact.

You obviously weren't on here after the Froch-Dirrell fight. Literally the best night I've ever had on here. In fact, Dirrell fights really seem to bring out the worst in posters, providing me with the most hilarity. If only he could fight every week :eek:
Re: Abraham camp to protest DQ accuses Dirrel of acting
If Abraham and Co think the DQ is what is going to cost Abraham millions and prevent him from being a big cross over star they need to rethink their logic, it was the 10 round beat down he received before that......
The crying and whining about lows blows and the DQ doesnt help either.
