"Sixty forty I kicks yo' ass, Sixty forty I tears yo' ass up" - Roy Jones
GAME are you serious? Do you honestly believe everything you type or is it just some sort of twisted sarcasm? Honestly most everything you are saying is shit and if you believe that out of the 4 fights the last 2 have been most controversial then you are just lying to yourself, and that's said. Dirrell was robbed robbed robbed against Froch. Sure he participated in a shit fight so it's a little hard to sympathize with him but he won 3 times as many rounds as Froch and that's a conservative estimate. Whatever, he won this one even though he was playing with fire all night. What kills me is you are playing the victim card for Abraham, that's what's unbelievable to me. Honestly, stop lying to yourself man it's pathetic and quite honestly embarrassing. Abraham fucked up and has only himself to blame, leave it at that and move on. Some fighters say after robberies "I shouldn't have put it in the hands of the judges", Abraham should say "I shouldn't clock my opponents on the ground."
it's an illegal punch and dq was the proper decision. no question about that. in the heat of the fight and the growing objective of abraham to ko dirrel, that illegal punch could be intentional or not intentional.
dirrell found a way to eliminate the possibility of him being ko'ed in the last remaining 5 minutes of the fight. why risk further when you can already secure a "sure win by dq" by not standing up. if he stood up and brush the punch as if nothing happens, there's a possibility that abraham is just penalized with points deduction.
Ok, first off hitting someone while down isn't an automatic dq. I've seen it done many times and the ref usually takes into consideration whether it was intentional or not. The severity and situation surrounding the foul dictates when someone is dq'd. Same as a low blow. Unless a fighter obviously and maliciously throws a low blow or a punch way after the bell, they are usually penalized or warned before ending the fight.
My opinion is that AA didn't intentionally foul him. It was heat of the moment and he was loading up cause he had Dirrell hurt and was looking for a ko.
Dirrell's response is hard for me to determine. My first thought was he faked it. His initial response was very odd after receiving a knockout blow. However, his responses and behavior after the dq make me wonder. I'm undecided, I watched it several times and still can't make up my mind whether he faked it or not.
Overall, the foul and Dirrell not being able to continue left the ref with only 2 options. He could have dq'd or went to the scorecards, just like an accidental headbutt. Either of those would have left Dirrell with a win. So it's very unfortunate that AA threw that punch. I felt like Dirrell was in big trouble and very well may have been ko'd in the 12th. I'm sure if AA could do it over he wouldn't have thrown that punch. It was a terrible ending no matter how it really happened. If Dirrell faked that, he's a fruitcake. If AA threw it on purpose he's a dirty punk. If it was an accidental punch, it ruined AA's chance of winning and possibly severely injured a young and very talented fighter.
No matter how you skin it, it sucks.![]()
it was funny when abe said "he is good actor" after the fight.
direll was hitting him low the whole night,and when abe knocked direll down from a punch,they called it a slip.by the time abe saw him slip,he was so aggrivated he just hit him anyway.![]()
i blame most of it on bad refereeing in the first place.
still,cant hit a guy when he's down,be it a knock down or a slip.
they need to get joe cortez in there or something.
is mills lane still coming back anytime soon?
