    Dirrell went down, then went down from a jab/slip, he was out of it. Good thing he has luck. His luck will not last though. Cole, watch his refereeing in TexASS.

    Aha. Now I get it.

    Dirrell went down from a jab-slip.

    It's a new kind of punch, they started teaching it in gyms very recently.

    :rofl

    The newest punch is Ward's "Billy Goat" butt punch.

    Solid Post. :deal

    I don't think anyone who who voted for AA remembers the round at all.

    I thought Abraham would have beaten him but Dirrell impressed me last night and its a shame he had to win via DQ.

    No one was winning the 11th. I'm just saying that that's in AA's favor because he always loses the first minute of the round, but he didn't here (though he didn't win it, either).

    And i think a lot of people expected Dirrel to outbox Abraham during the early/middle rounds, though the knockdown and the extend in which he did it did surprise me. It ****ing sucks that we didn't get to see how it ended. Rematch!!

    Sure we did: Dirrell DQ11.

    I do see what you mean though: if nothing else, I'd have like to have seen it go to the scorecards so that Dirrell could get the clean win that he was on course to get. Maybe Abraham could score a highlight-reel comeback KO, who knows? All we can say is that Abraham's uncontrolled amateurish mistake cost us all the fun of finding out.

    Dirrell was winning the round. Abraham landed a jab to start the round and didn't land another punch until the jab just before the KO punch. Dirrell landed a few body punches and was easily evading Abraham who seemed unable to cut the ring off at that point.

    Personally I don't see why anyone thinks Abraham was going to pull out a KO when the only legitimate knockdown had been scored by Dirrell. Sure Abraham had a good tenth but that was down to the trip knockdown and even when he did go all out he wasn't able to hit Dirrell much in that round.

    It was such an incomplete affair that i cant even call it for one guy or another, it literally encompasses entirely of AA coming forward with Dirrell avoiding him, backing up and circling, AA lunging with some shots and Dirrell peppering his guard with some nice range finding shots.... this goes on for roughly a minute until Dirrell goes down while AA rushes in.

    Im not gonig to say anybody 'won' that... thats just me.
