I'd give Brinkley a better shot with Abraham than Dirrell. At least Brinkley fought Stevens and put him down a couple of times before winning. Jesse never ran like a damned chicken with his head cut off with the hopes his hometown judges would save his ass. That **** should be sucking off the British judge who gave it to him against Froch. I almost thought they were fighting in the states the way his running away and slipping on the floor any time Froch landed on him made it so close. That guy is the only thing wrong with the Super Six. I hope he gets KFTO worse than Taylor. At least Taylor stood and fought. Mad respect to Bad Intentions for being a stand up fighter, not a no talent ass clown like Dirrell. Let Abraham and Ward embarrass his ass so we don't have to see his sorry ass on as a headliner ever again.
Larry Merchant was fight : Dirrell-Stevens was the worst fight ever. Why? Because Dirrell is the worst style of fighter fighting today. A total ***** in the ring.
Dirrell ain't stoping ****. Ther's a good possiblilty that Abraham takes him out though. Dirrell will get hit, since he keeps his hands low when he moves. We'll see if he can take AA's right hand, or be able to move for 12 rounds.
Dirrell has a bad habit of not throwing anything when he lunges in to clinch, and worse yet, he lunges in with his hands down. I think AA will catch him with a straight right or an uppercut as soon as he does that. For the most part Abraham's punching technique is god awful, but the short-straight-right, and the uppercut he does pretty well. I doubt if Dirrell could survive.
All I know is that AA won't let Dirrell steal his zero. You know, basically this is the same discussion all over the forums we had before the AA vs. Taylor fight. Abraham never really needed the KO and I think hell will break loose if he does. So Dirrell better doesn't win too many rounds. I don't see that Dirrell is able to avoid Abraham's canons for all 12 rounds.
Pavlik's style will lead to him getting hit more than Simon, and Abraham will be going for the kill. That said, Pavlik has a good chance merely based on size, reach and work-rate.
