Abraham/Dirrell: The Germans plan to file official protest, request rematch

Well for a country where Sven Ottkes from,they want everything their way.As someone on here made the reference to Robin Reid about giving the world title to him that was rightfully his.

 

No wonder the German's are so one-eyed if that's the kind of dishonest, whiny shite their press serves up to them. :yep

 

if you think Dirrell outboxed, outclassed, and completely dominated Abraham in every round, you must be ****in blind

Maybe you were watching a different fight. Abraham won rounds 3, 8, and 10. He dominated the round previous to the DQ and threat of a knockout was very real.


unbelievable how people lie to themselves

 

Maybe the Germans were disturb how lousy the acting ability of Dirrel. :-((

 

:rofl

you have your moments

 

I've heard something about drug testing maybe? It was an issue before, ARD (Super Six German TV partner) mandates strick drug testing for all fighters televised (don't know if foreign fights matter), and there was some trash talk between Sauerland and Shaw before the tourney, something about Dirrell and steroids, Shaw jokingly drank a bit of Dirrell's "urine" (or some yellow material) at the announce press conference, I've heard nothing on the issue after that. If Dirrell indeed refused a post-fight drug test yesterday (as someone posted in another thread), that doesn't look too good for him, why would he do that after such a nice performance?

 

did Dirrell look like he was in any sort of shape to give a drug test

 

Sometimes it works,sometimes it fails miserably :yep

 

Aa was finnishing dirrel until dirrel faked a slip and aa punched.

 

Dirrell was great:good, but he has stamina issues. AA was coming on strong and had Dirrell on ***** street. Had AA pushed the action earlier, Andre would have tired earlier and been out by the 10th-11th round. You will see this in a rematch.
Andre dominated and surprised AA.
Bad punch, but it showed how much Dirrell had left...zero.
Dirrell would have been a Zombie in the 12th.
Stamina will be his downfall, mark my words..
I think a rematch would sell millions...have it maybe in Britain and fire the pathetic ref..he was horrible.

 

the king wants a rematch...stop the tournament!

 

Brilliant.

 

There was no fake slip. Whether or not he faked the result of the punch after he slip is your opionion but he definitely slipped.

 

It is a weak argument but I think the argument that they are going to make is that the foul should not have been ruled intentional and therefore subject to automatic DQ. If it was an unintentional foul then I believe Dirrell would have been given 5 minutes to continue or lose on a tko.

Either way, Abraham needs to dramatically alert his style. Dirrell showed the blue print of how to beat him, pepper him with punches and move. If Abraham doesn't throw more punches then it won't matter if he gets a rematch or not.
