    Nadia Camaneci has already weighed in. She says AD was not acting. Sorry to deliver this news to you.

    Dirrell is a cheating ******* and he knows it. What the King did wasnt right, but it was instinctive. Dirrell's acting was an embarrassment to the sport.

    This is exactly the point of his comments. Somehow Direll is the bad guy, when it is AA who blatantly fouled him. You are pretty much saying, that it was ok what AA did, sure it wasn't right, but it is understandable -- instinctive, it happens. But direll he is the worst, cheating and a embarrassment of the sport? :rofl He is the guy who got KO'd when he was on all 4's? AA then goes onto say that what he did was legal and made no apology for doing it and this makes Direll the bad guy?????

    Terrible reasoning?

    Abraham committed a blatantly intentional foul. A foul that could have ended Dirrell's career. Anything that happened after the foul is irrelevant.

    Interesting, thanks for posting this. I can't help but feel sorry for Dirrell and I hope there are no lasting effects from that DQ punch.

    Agreed. I still question his character, quite frankly, but it has absolutely zero to do with what Abraham did. AA was entirely in the wrong and the resulting DQ was fair and correct.

    I don't really think it was intentional by Abraham..It was just a natural reaction. He was jacked up, ready to knock Dirrell out, trying to hurry up, and accomplish it. Dirrell either slipped, or chose to go down because he was in trouble. He was down, and Abraham reacted.
    I've done it once in sparring, and I felt badly. I wasn't trying to knock anybody out, but the bell rang, they said stop, I hesitated for a second, and then hit the other guy. It was pretty gentle though cuz I caught myself, but still felt bad. Your in a damn FIGHT! Somebody hitting you, you hitting them. Not everybody is a relaxed Ali, or Mayweather in there. Some people are tense, angry, desperate, etc. Nobody wants to lose, and a lot of boxers let it slip away. Abraham wasn't about to let that **** happen, and was going to get DIrrell no matter what! Just lost control for a second...

    I got a question, why would Dirrell fake being knockout after that huge punch in his hometown in he only need a 1 round left for a decision win? This is a big fight with alot of people watching. This is a supersix tournament and he's going to act that he was ko? lol. I swear most people that think he was faking being ko is ******ed. Like Dirrell said


    'Well you let the strongest guy at 178, or 168, and, 160 hit you while you're on the floor and let's see just how you act.'

    Do you wait 2 or 3 seconds after a fighter is already down when you throw a big punch? Cause that's exactly what Abraham did.

    Abraham stepped back, lined him up, took aim, and fired! He fired an underhand right, not a hook, or a straight shot, an underhand punch! That is a pretty clear indicator that he knew exactly where Dirrell was.
