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

You just described Sven Ottke versus Robin Reid perfectly.

 

AA by TKO.

 

:deal

However for some reason I've put my money on Dirrell UD atsch

I'm such a sucker for good odds :bbb

 

The only problem with that logic is 6 people have survived all 12 rounds (only 1 that I know of who was down during the fight) and Abraham won a decision. Including doing so against Miranda, with a broken jaw. So by the math that 80% of the guys to go 12 with Abraham would win, he should have at least 4 losses.

 

Dirrell after a poor show against Froch ups the anti and scores a lop sided UD maybe late stoppage .

I dont rate AA , yes he fought well against Taylor but i see him getting found out here !!!!!!

 

What's funny is that AA is only -200 on the betting odds. I don't see Dirrell winning unless if he does a 360 from his past fights with fighters with power. He'll be scared stiff of AA's power.

 

What I find interesting about this fight is that we haven't seen the best of either fighter. Abraham never needed the KO and except when he fought with a broken jaw and lost a quart of blood against Miranda, he never went all - out. Dirrell has great talent and hasn't put it all together against an elite opponent. If Dirrell does indeed fight better than he did againsr Froch and maybe puts Abraham into a desparate situation in the late rounds, I think we are in for quite a treat...

 

I voted for AA.. this fight has the potential of being a very ugly boring fight but still I'm looking forward to it. Can AA effectively cut off the ring when Dirrell runs? Will AA's strength deter Dirrell from holding? What happens if AA goes in the later rounds knowing he is down on points? I think if Abraham knows he's down on the cards heading into the 11 & 12 rounds then he will launch an all out attack the likes of which we have never seen before from him.. eventually catching Dirrell and forcing the ref to stop the fight.

AA TKO 12

 

I will not repeat what other people already said. But what a lot of people often forget, is to "win" a round, its not just the number of punch you throw, or how much you evade. Theres ring generalship and such. So for sure in Dirrel hometown, AA will have more problem to "steal" some round, but if Dirrel jab and run he will not win all those round.

 

i hope there isnt no hometown cheating, i hope the ref is fair and the judges are to, but i dont think the judges will have a say in this fight. abraham has serious power he will knock him out.

 

What did he say?

 

Dirrell UD or late rounds stoppage

 

Abraham wins by KO 9-12 when trailing on the cards.

 

I see Abraham winning via late KO & he'l be trailing on the scorecards when it happens.
