Why would dirrel need to act, he was going to win anyway...

I like your arguments in the official fight thread but read the title of this thread "Why would Dirrell need to act, he was going to win anyway" a hypotheical statement the poster is simply replying by stating that Dirrel had no legs and was backpedaling to the ropes and was about to be stopped by Abraham if it were not for the DQ

But you see, in reply to the thread title, the real question is "How much does one need to act to have the opponent DQ'd?"

....I wasn't aware that -any- acting was necessary for this to occur. I believe a DQ is issued in response to an illegal action.

Hence: "Why would he need to act if he was going to win?"
Answer: He didn't need to act.

exactly...

I interpreted the question differently, the wonderful direct english language once again going by the question you were attempting to answer. Yes he didn't need to Act.. Abraham was already Dq'd but his absolutely laughable antics were embarassing (he obviously wanted no bit of fighting again... yes even though the fight was over) All people on the forum are pointing out is though Dirrell was hit with a CHEAP shot he obviously wanted to ues it to get out of that ring ASAP. I've seen people KO'd they're all quiet a little shellshocked and very calm to get up Dirrell rushed up started yelling let me breathe and behaved like a little child.
