Dirrel Vs Abraham predictions!

Dirrel needs to step up his offensive if he wants to beat AA

 

Abraham by KO

 

dirrell decision. he won't fight like taylor did and completely waste punch after punch. too fast and too mobile for AA.

 

Dirrell will fall on canvas, run, hold, complain to referee and get knocked out for his cheating.

 

Not that easy to predict, but unlike Froch i dont think AA will be punching air all night long..

 

Alot of AA nuthuggers on this site, which is a shame, because it makes me root against a guy who is a pretty good fighter.

I still pick AA by KO. Dirrell doesn't hit harder than Taylor, who landed a few good shots on Abraham, and Abraham is far more skille dthan Froch, so he will eventually get to him.

I think that Abraham will do better than Froch. Abraham's defense is air tight. He will not let Dirrell playing those silly little games.

 

I think that beating Abraham first takes an iron chin and second a mental strength about being hit. To land punches on him you have to be willing to get close, engange, counterpunch and be able to take few bombs withotu mentally folding. Nobody is just going to outbox Abraham from the distance because they would only hit that iron clad guard. If Dirrell fights the way he fought Froch, he can avoid gettin KO'd but will only land jabs on Abraham's gloves. It could actually be an impossible fight to score.

 

I think Abraham's defense is pretty tight and I doubt Dirrell will be able to fight him effectively from the outside, so he'll have to get in close, which would be a huge risk. I'm picking Abraham by KO. But Dirrell can probably win if he can use Abraham's low work rate against him and find a way to land punches from afar.

 

For Dirrel to win he will have to be prepared to take a few shots and I can't see him doing that.I voted AA by KO but thinking about it AA on points.

 

if Dirrell fights his normal scared to death boring style (which i know he will, esp against ArthurAbrahams) & the judges are few guys from this ESB msg board...then Dirrell wins by points.:yep

:tired

 

Abraham KO.. or Dirrell decision..

 

that's it - Abraham is gonna win the tournament. 2ko's already.
if he ever faces kessler he beats him as well , presumably by stoppage.
aa is too experienced and strong for dirrell.
but dirrell may have last the distance and lose on points , having some nice photos of him looking good (temporarily) against abraham.
