His running tactics? What Dirrell was doing to Abraham was tantamount to face rape.
Maybe you should re-watch the fight after the knockdown that was robbed from AA. Dirrell clearly wasn't as sharp, was taking more significant punches.
Could Dirrell have ran enough to get a points victory? Absolutely.
But, even more so AA was on the hunt and he was connecting.
"Face Rape?" --that would be Pac v. De La Hoya--clearly you're biased.
Dirrell was landing more, working harder, and more certainly on his way to lopsided points victory, especially if they counted BOTH of his knockdowns, up until AA knocked him down. You cannot discount momentum. AA had it. Dirrell's eyes told the whole story.
But, if you really need to prove to yourself whether or not he was running...
ask yourself this:
was he running or punching when he slipped?
He was trying to land a left hook, which actually connected but had nothing on it because his feet were moving in opposite directions.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
