    It looks the feet were in fact tangled. The other angle clearly shows this, why don't you post that as well?

    Dirrell was able to take AA's right hands all other times by stepping backwards. This was no different, except AA's foot was in the way.

    Dirrell didn't even land a punch man! That is clear as day a push.

    Nowhere in boxing does it say a knockdown has to result from a punch to the face.

    That's a pretty clear knockdown. Right hand landed and their feet hardly touched at all. Bad call by the referee - he ruined the right. Not excusing Abraham's low blow but he was obviously frustrated

    It has to result from a punch to somewhere though!

    Who said anything about a punch to the face? Dirrell doesn't land any punch at all.

    Now i understand where all these "Dirrell outclassed Abraham" comments are coming from.

    ummmm........if that the case why do I see a Dirrell left hook wacking Abe on his neck and sending him down into the ropes?

    So the wind just picked Abraham up and threw him into the ropes? Granted it's not a clean connect, but it landed to the side of his neck while abraham was lunging in wildly and he got caught. It's a knockdown.

    I'm not sure. Do you think that the inside of the forearm is actually the knuckles?
