    Calzaghe vs. Hopkins
    Karmazin vs. Miranda (Karmazin was ahead on the cards at the stoppage)
    Adamek vs. Cunningham
    Aydin vs. Ouali
    Hatton-Collazo


    Other than Sergio Martinez (who's really South American), I can't even think of a European fighter who's been robbed on US soil since Sturm-DLH.

    Okay, but it never hurts to have an American promoter when you're European (Karmazin, Adamek)... and vice versa, of course.

    I think, with this move, Dirrell can only lose. If he wins by decision, the S6 tourney and he himself will take a major hit on reputation. It's possible the tourney will fall apart when more questionable decisions are made, or even one fighter demands a rematch in court.

    Dirrell needs to win by (T)KO now to convince the fans that he won without the help of the judges. And this against one of the two toughest fighters of the S6.

    So, even if AA loses, he will win respect the same way Holyfield got respect for losing against Valuev.

    But I still think, AA will catch Dirrell and we won't see the scorecards.

    People don't realize what a masterful job Saurland does of manipulating them through the press because, well, they are being masterfully manipulated.

    So in your mind if Dirrell wins by decision its automatically a "questionable" decision, regardless if he actually outboxes Abraham silly for 12 rounds?

    No, I don't.

    If the fight is as close as the Dirrell/Froch fight, and Dirrell gets the nod, many will scream murder. If the fight is as clear as the Ward/Kessler fight, nobody would be upset if the better man gets the decision - even if one fighter fought with dirty or questionable methods.

    The Arthur Abraham camp is up in arms over the notion of three Michigan judges scoring King Arthur’s SUPER SIX fight against Andre Dirrell. Hall of Fame promoter Wilfried Sauerland told BILD, “Dirrell lives in Michigan. It’s unacceptable that the judges and the referee should also come from Michigan. I reject that.” Abraham trainer Uli Wegner stated that Abraham must win by KO to take it out of the hands of the judges.

    So, this was what Dirrell's injury was all about? Dirrell said that he was not confident fighting in California, hmmmmmmmmmmm, last time I checked California was in USA, not Europe or Mars??????????????/

    Abraham will need a knockout to get a split decision.

    Andre Ward will fight Green in his hometown! Ward will have all his fights in his hometown. Why is that? Imagine if Green insisted the fight be in "his" hometown???????????

    To fight in ones home town is fair enough but to have judges from there is unacceptable.

    I think this fight will be a huge let down. Dirrel only has himself to blame for his loss to Froch - he didnt throw enough punches and ran too much. Against, AA, he will do even more running as he will know if AA catches up with him he will suffer a savage KO. Is this true that all the judges are from Michigan and the ref - that is crazy!!
