He dominated the fight until the 10th when he got hurt. He stared eating right hands in the 11th and it looked like he might get Ko'd in the 11th till he got Dq'd. Roy Jones VS. Montell Griffing all over again.
complete bullshit, that was a real cheap shot and real pain
cheap shot, yes. But it was a real acting job.
Alex101 - cheap shot, yes. But it was a real acting job.
Thats what I saw too...
I could be wrong he may of been really hurt.
he was acting, he grabbed his eye, squinted and then fell down lol.
You got to be kidding me when that dude was talking like he was off his gourd. Shame cause it was a great display on his part and I hope they took him to the hospital ASAp
Alex101 - cheap shot, yes. But it was a real acting job.
QFT
the ko was coming, abraham was about to fold him up just like JT.
Abrahan had a CHANCE to KO him late its HIS fault he threw the cheap shot.
Dirrell is very hard to land a clean shot on
I bet on Dirrell and made money , he was winninmg every round maybe 1-2 only he lost.
Terrible mistake by Abraham. Puts a loss on his record and a question on his character.
It looked really fishy, but it's actually irrelevant - Abraham fouled him and needs to take his DQ loss like a man.
I wouldn't call it a cheap shot, it was a heat of the moment, it's not like he cocked back and really tried to unload on him. He slipped on the logo after a punch was landed, and Abraham just went with the flow because the Ref was in a bad position.
If Dirrell didn't pass out lol, I'm sure Abraham would of just got a warning or a pt dudection. But because of his Robert De Niro like acting, the ref had no choice but to jump in and DQ Abraham.
Roy hit Griffin a lot harder, and twice.
cheap shot .. no acting ...

quite a bit of members believe he was acting. He's a softy, look at his fight with Froch, he was wrestling and falling to the ground every 10 mins.
and the post fight interview was the best part.
The shot didn't look that devastating and I was pretty sure that he was faking it. Then he looked wobbly when he got up and started behaving crazy. He was very uncharacteristically bizarre, asking strange questions and wildly rushing into people in the ring pleading with them to give him space to breathe. After all of that I was sure that he'd been knocked silly.
No acting. The guy was clearly concussed. If you've never seen people get hit and react a second or two later, this is one of the first times you have watched boxing. The guy was upset when they announced he won. He was crying that he had lost. He was that fucked up. If he wasn't winning every facet of that fight and had a knock down early on against Abraham and not ahead on all the judge's scorecards, you may have a point.
Yo are just a poor sport that lost a $100.
AA is a beast and was on his way to a KO. Dirrell did a good job in the fight but will be forever tainted by the scene he made after the illegal blow. I loved Abraham's reaction calling him a coward (which caused Dirrell to start crying) and then telling Gary Shaw that Dirrell was a great actor.
Dirrell is a boxer and Abraham is a fighter. Abraham will go on to win this tournament despite this setback.
Abraham: He actor. Not boxer. Actor.
Gary Shaw: He's not an actor. He's a good boxer. Give him credit!
Abraham: No.
Gary Shaw: Give him credit!
Abraham: No.
The Kangaroo - AA is a beast and was on his way to a KO.Right. As evidenced by his cut, bruised and closing eye, losing of most of the rounds, and getting knocked down. I'm sure it makes sense to you that AA didn't want to KO him earlier. All part of his master plan. He was going to lose the fight until the last 5 minutes and then he was gonna SPRING!.
no the coward is the dude who got his ears boxed off and then threw a cheap shot

The cut was from a headbutt.
And that knockdown was weak. Dirrell caught him as he was moving backwards & off balance. Abraham scored a knockdown too in the 10th. Unfortunately the ref was a fuckhead and called it a trip even though replays clearly showed it was a legit knockdown.
