Abraham - Dirrell fight thread

[JohnnyKickAss]

Henry Maske wears waaaaaaaay too much make up...

Lol...thats metro for you...

[CutMeMick]

They gonna get his ass in the parking lot lol !!!! Those security guards look hella ghetto

Well he doesn't have to worry about having his belt robbed.
The dumbass gave it away in the ring all by himself.

[CutMeMick]

AAs cheating ass needs to man up and just move on...

This makes the tourney much more interesting.

if i remember correctly dirrell knocked abraham down onto the ropes with a lefthook but it wasn't called a kd.

[GAME]

Well they say when you go to the other guys backyard youve gotta knock em out to get a draw. Arthur did that but got DQ'd for it.

We knew summat corrupt would happen when a Michigan fighter got a home ref in Michigan. Arthur got cut by a headbutt but no warnings to Direll . He was also hit low many times without warning. Arthur also scored a clean knockdown the round before and wasnt awarded it. Total farce like Ward vs Kess.

what!?!?


dirrell also had a 2nd knockdown that wasnt conted so thats irrelevant


i cant see how that was in ANY way a bad DQ, abraham clearly knew what he was doing

[arcanum26]

Seriously, Cole needs to retire as a ref. Lots of lousy judgment calls/no calls. Im even thinking he waited too long to call that a DQ. Don't think he's biased or anything, but he always overlooks a lot of important stuff thats happening in the ring. good show by dirrell, but Im still having second thoughts if he was acting or not during the end of the bout.

My God.

You can knock someone out who's on their knees?

Cole missed two KD's, one for each guy and AA whined constantly about borderline, at best, low blows.

They were interviewing the doctor while you could see Andre in the background still flapping his lips, spouting out utter nonsense.
The doctor was like: "We are worried that his brain might be bleeding..."

Then shouldn't you be f*cking attending to him instead of discussing it on TV?

What a circus.

There's fuck all wrong with him thats why. What a drama.

I've never seen anything like it. Get hit, acknowledge the shot, hold your nose, wait 1 second, go to the ground, roll around a little, move your head from side to side (adds to the realism) and then make your leg shake.

He said he thought he'd been ko'd, then he said he'd been hit while he was down. Seems to have a perfect recollection of it, considering it almost killed him.

Hey guys I just saw the Tyrell Biggs-Mike Tyson fight a few days ago again. Tyson hits Biggs on the side of the head when the ref was breaking them up.
I sure wonder if Biggs did a Direll/Griffen would Tyson have been disqualified also?

At the 1:15 mark of the video. Biggs should have acted also, he could have been the 1st person to beat Tyson by DQ.

Uhh

Getting hit on the side of the head DOES NOT equal to getting hit clean while you are down.

You have either never had a head injury or know what a delayed reaction is.

Gerald McClennan was hit the same kinda way and it wasnt when he was knocked down, but he had adelayed and grabbed his head in the same fashion when he had a delayed reaction to go down in the Nigel Benn fight.

In the Roy Jones vs Trinidad fight he hit him with a shot to the side of the head and Tito bounced around for a second before falling down. was Trinidad faking?

Dirrell got buzzed badly. And it's a good thing the fight was stopped.

Nothing you can come up with to try to diss Dirrell for what you think was acting doesn't take away from Abraham putting himself in that position.

You in one breath are saying he is acting and saying he thought he was KO'd so he must remember it. If he was KO'd and acknowledged it then he wouldn't be faking it would he?

Some of you people just refuse to accept that he wasn't faking because you've never seen a delayed reaction. There is a lot of info in this topic about head injuries, I suggest you read up on them.

Abraham acted like a bigger bitch then you could ever accuse Dirrell of being.

And the fact people are actually trying to find a reason to bash Dirrell for being potentially seriously injured shows how close minded some people are when they favor one fighter. It's a sad sight.

And if a story comes out that he was severely concussed then how stupid are you all gonna feel?

Is it gonna have to take another fighter to die in the ring before you're satisfied? Does another Leavander Johnson have to happen before you realize how serious people can be injured in the ring?

There is no faking the way his head spun from a shot he didn't see and trying to say he took the same amount of damage the whole fight is despicable.

There's nothing you can say that will make me believe otherwise. Dirrell shit out.

There might be a story to say he was severely concussed, but it would be false, because he wasn't.

When he took the punch, he looked back at Abraham as if to say WTF, then he squinted/grimaced, touched his nose, and then fell sideways. absolutely no way a fighter pauses a second after being hit, grimaces, touches his nose and then drops, when he's been actually ko'd.

I agree, Abraham shouldn't have hit him but from the post fight interview it was clear to me that Abraham seemed to believe that Dirrell might have actually had both feet planted on the floor. When asked about it in the interview he pointed out that he couldn't see, and i believe he was going to go on and say dirrell's feet were planted (the camera shot that Arthur was looking at didn't show Dirrell's feet). Unfortunately the idiot who was interviewing began speaking over him saying 'you couldn't see because there was blood in your eyes'.

Absolute joke. Even bigger joke how American TV went all along with it, and further dramatised it by having an interview with the Dr in Dirrell's changing room. Talking about his brain bleeding. From an arm punch that didn't land all that cleanly. Pathetic

Well, you know what they say about opinions...

Anyway, how do you agree but then immediately start excusing the incident?

Im sure Abaraham must have found it pretty strange to have to aim so low to hit Dirrells head if Dirrell's feet were supposedly planted. (planted where? under the ring? ha)
