Super Six Stage Two: Arthur Abraham vs. Andre Dirrell, Who Wins?

i think we could well be seeing an upset, i have it 60-40 in Abrahams favour.

 

Almost certain AA will catch up with him. I do have a tip for Dirrell though...

I favor Abraham to catch him eventually but Andre may have really matured due to the Froch experience. We might see a different person, from boy to man. But I doubt it. I think leopards don't tend to change their spots.

 

Abraham will win, but Dirrell faked an injury to get the fight in his home town so he can cheat. Abraham should have known better. Dirrell's plan is to run, hold, fall down on canvas, complain to "his" referee, his commentators, his judges, his home town fans. Dirrell's fans will threaten Abraham to intimidate him, they know they will have to cheat. Dirrell will also use a headbutt and his referee will say that head butts are legal. If Abraham lands a punch on Dirrell, he will take a point away for landing a punch, if Abraham lands a punch to Dirrell's body, Dirrell's referee will take a point away for landing a body punch, even if it is to Dirrell's chest. Abraham deserves to lose the fight for being stupid enough to fight in Dirrell's home town, with Dirrell's referee and judges. Dirrell knows that all he has to do is be standing to win the fight. Dirrell does not have to throw one punch to win. He knows that. Dirrell fans are not boxing fans, they believe in cheating anyway they can. To Hell with cheaters. To Hell with Dirrell fans. Dirrell fans claim that holding is good for boxing, running is the only way to win, complaining is wonderful, and falling down on canvas is fantastic. Low blows is legal and headbutts, well, headbutts are the only way to go. Cheating is legal as long as Dirrell cheats, but Abraham, well, if he lands a punch is illegal, afterall, boxing is all about cheating for "their" fighter. Dirrell is not a fighter, he is a cheater and coward with his home town, ref and judges. Dirrell refused to fight, unless it's in his home town, with his judges and referee. Sound familiar? Cheating is legal as long as it's Dirrell, or any of "their"fans.............

 

i hate everything about dirrel but if he employs the same tactics vs froch he will win on decision

i bet 50 quid on a dirrel win and will get like 180 quid back

 

Dirrell on points. 117-111

 

Ha Ha - you are a true patriot.........

 

Hey Farmy, to the best of your knowledge, has there ever in the long and storied history of boxing been a Black fighter who has won a fight or even entered into a contract for a fight without the deck heavily stacked in his favor (ie venue, judges, commentators, referees, ringside doctors, crooked athletic commissions, biased ringcard girls, little green men bearing powerful sedatives)?

 

Hard to predict. In a way, I hope Dirrell wins this because another loss might seriously hinder what could be a great career. Plus, Abraham is a bit too methodical for my likeing.

But... Abraham really, never looked like losing vs Taylor, from first to twelth. Abraham is that much better than Froch who needed a KO vs Taylor. And either way you score the Froch Dirrell fight... it was a close run thing... So against a much better fighter than Froch... I don't know, it's too early for Dirrell.

 

Personally, I feel that the Froch fight (although I feel it was relatively clear for Dirrell) could be the best thing that's happened in his career. I feel he will have learned alot from that night and has grown mentally due to it. I expect an even better performance and him to hand Abe his first loss

 

styles make fights bro, you cant compare froch to abraham.

one thing I have realised which i am sure everyone else has as well, abraham only fights for around 45-1 minute of a round max. he throws little amount of punches. if any boxer lasts 12 rounds againt abraham without being put down, i am willing to be 80 percent of the time they will win

 

spot on

dirrel was a disgrace on that night and imo deserved to lose but one thing i saw despite my hatred for him

the guy has talent, when he exchanged with froch he whooped froch's ass in my opinion. if he fights more in a positive way against abraham then he will whoop his ass

 

I really hate Direll. His personality is incredibly grating. He's like a eight year old with ADD. I want to see him get knocked out, and I think Abraham will do it.

 

Or get knocked out by an explosive shot from Abraham
