    I don´t know what actualy happened but I think it was like he thought that Hernandez slipped and tried him to go up fast and then realized that it was a knockdown when seeing him wobbling. Then he started counting...

    ..but I might be wrong...

    I find the KO of David "****ing" Banks much more impressive than the KO of Elvin "I lost twice to David ****ing Banks" Ayala any day of the week.:deal

    What the **** are you talking about? When was AA on the canvas?

    And **** off with Germany bashing. US hometown decisions are worse.

    It's about Hernandez, who fought on the undercard.

    He didnt get a gift decision against Eastman.It was a close fight. No doubt about it. However,most ring observes and experts had Abraham ahead on points after 12 relatively lame rounds.Eastman was far too passive and lethargic too often in order to be declared the winner of his encounter with Abraham.

    The Miranda fight a gift? Eh! Even without the point deductions Abraham should have won that fight.He almost took Miranda out in round 9 of their encounter after having broken his jaw twice and lost tons of blood.

    Not the fight I was talking about. The event before AA in the last stream.

    I don't agree..Eastman did more than AA in that fight. Take away the crowds cheers whenever AA threw anything and it's a close fight but Eastman did more.

    As for Miranda, we can agree to disagree. For a start the fight should of been stopped. The ref asked him if he wanted to continue and he said no. That's the end of the fight right there! If it wasn't for that huge break AA got then he may not have lasted the round. As for the decision, it's similar to many of AA's fights. He fights in spurts which may impress some people (especially when the crowd cheers at every lunge). The point deductions were ridiculous and without them AA looked a beaten man. The judges thought differently but so be it.

    Abraham doesnt speak English,and the ref doesnt speak Russian,Armenian,or German.Abraham had no clue what the ref was speaking about at that moment.Besides the point deductions were not ridiculous.And even without the point deducions Abraham didnt look like a beaten man.Yes,he was running for his life,and yes,Miranda was on the attack most of the time.Nevertheless,Abraham was the one who connected with the more telling punches(watch round 9-Abraham almost took his Columbian foe out of the fight in that round).
    Abraham would have murdered Miranda if Miranda had been the one with a totally shattered jaw.
    Yes,Abraham fights in spurts.He is also a very slow starter usually giving the first few rounds away even to totally outclassed and outgunned.
    opponents. However,he hasnt lost a single fight up to now.
    He has the firepower to beat any rival out there.Pavlik can be hurt ,and so can be Taylor. I dont intend to say that Abraham must be favoured over his two aforementioned top rivals,but the Armenian banger has a decent chance against either of them.
