You know he can't just stand up for the whole fight

c'mon now.
Quite simply Dirrell HAS to win this fight to make Ward-Dirrell worth anything. Showtime need this fight.
Abraham can slide back to Germany, 10 million TV viewers and 30,000 punters.
I agree it's wrong, it's fucked up, but it's not against the rules. In hindsight Showtime should have used title rules for the entire tourney as per their own contract. And yes Showtime is trying to keep viable fighters/fights for the future, they need to do everything they can because HBO runs this game.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
