    If I remember correctly, Jones Vs Griffin I ended in a similar fashion.

    Unfortunately, it appears to depend on the condition of the fighter who has been fouled i.e. is he fit to continue!?

    Nothing prevents acting. However, when you see that the guy is defenseless and gets hit flush on the jaw when he's down, you have to disqualify him. Even if Dirrell was perfectly fine, the rules state that Abraham has to be disqulified if the ref feels he intentionally hit a fighter who is down.

    I agree that it does happen all the time and I agree that Margarito should of been penalized, but at least Cotto had his one hand to cover himself up. Dirrell had all four limbs on the canvas, and could not protect himslef. You could throw about three or more punches in a second, and there was about a second pause between his second left hook and the last punch. Abranham clealry saw Dirrell on the floor. The DQ is justified.

    Thats the thing though, this happens in a lot of fights but they get away with it without even so much as a warning. Illegal?...yes, intentional?...no way. It should of been ruled a NC, RJJ was done wrong and so was AA.

    Dirrell was knocked out and at he very least hurt. And if you dont believe that, then tell me how you in all but a second, fake convulsions and memory loss. The other fighters were caught light.

    Is not hard to understand. When Abraham hit him he clearly loaded up and took a swing. It would have been different if it was the act of a combination. But it wasnt. Abraham clearly loaded up on the punch.

    Didn't look as blatant to me. Looked like Cotto was down and then instantly Margo throws a shot. Something should have been done probably but one instance or lack of a ruling doesn't affect the other instance. A huge difference is Margo was commanding that fight, while Dirrell was clearly winning his.

    Lastly, like I said it seemed upon 1000 times on the replay that Dirrell was down, and Arthur had a quarter of a second to think, looked at him, loaded up and hit him. The huge difference in the comparison can be seen by the reaction of the commentators.

    Point deductions should have occurred in these other fights.

    The difference is that you hate to see a guy DQd when he's winning the fight.

    Abraham was desperate and committed a worse foul by order against Dirrell. And Andre's condition was frightening enough to unsettle a professional boxer sitting at ringside. If Dirrell was acting, he's a really ****ing good actor.

    Im not going to argue about if hes faking it or not because neither you, me or anyone else truly knows but Dirrell himself.

    But you are talking out of your ass if you think AA loaded that punch. He didnt pull his arm back and shot within a second when Dirrell's knee touched the ground.

    Sorry, but you can't rule that a NC. If you did that, what would stop guys who are clearly behind from purposely unloading on a guy who's down? Abraham had more control over the situation than Dirrell. Therefore, he's the one that should be punished. Making the fight a NC completely favors Abraham. Anyway, Dirrell definately wasn't faking anyway. That was a clean shot from a big puncher right on the jaw.

    Again are you saying Dirrell was faking convulsions, memory loss and disorientation?

    He clearly loaded up. He even looked down at him before he punched. It was hard full flush shot from one of the hardest punchers in the division which snapped Dirrells head around.

    Are you honestly arguing that Dirrell should have continued? Are you honestly arguing to give Abraham an advantage in the fight?

    A point deduction would have meant nohting. Dirrell was already massively ahead. If the fight would have continued it would have been nothing but in ABRAHAMS favor. He would have a hurt fighter on his hands.

    I mean even you can see that.
