scandal? They're calling it a scandal? This is silly season. Accept the loss and move on with it. And frankly it was Abraham who was acting with cries for help regarding non-existent low blows. As for Ward, he was boxing Kessler's ears off. End of Story.
Abraham and Kessler got their asses beat. Deal with it and move on. And German boxing fans trying to call it a 'scandal' is rich considering what goes on over there
next story-Sven Ottke cries foul on Dirrell. Claims punching a German in the head is clear grounds for DQ. Directs readers to Ottke vs Reid for clarification
I dont get what you can complain about? There is no doubt in anyones mind that the punch was ilegal.... Now from there dirrell could either: A) take 5 mins and win the fight on points (he didnt need point deduction to do this anyway) B)Get KO`d from the punch and win on a DQ Either way Dirrell would have won. Yes AA was coming on strong and was looking better in the later rounds, but he wasnt going to win on points anyway. After 5 mins recoup Dirrell would have been able to have a breather and backpedal for the last round. Either way AA looses. Anyone who think he was robbed is a total idiot. The punch was illegal and AA got what he deserved.
The smug Sauerland group is not used to being on the losing end of things.They thought they had something special with Kessler and Abraham.Welcome to the REAL world of pro boxing,boys.:|
B) Missing word = Fake C) Get up, stop acting like a pussay an 'maybe' get knocked out. But suppose whats the point in doing C when the fixed B is the easier option.
I'm all for any boxing scene to flourish, which goes the same for the German scene, but for **** sakes!!! Everyone knows Germany is the biggest ripoff country in boxing history, David Haye actually had to get a majority decision against Valuev, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. We've all seen more blatant ripoffs with the German boxing scene than most any other scene combined. So when one of their prodigal sons loose they fish for every excuse in the book, why? Because they've been handed so many gift decisions, they don't even know what it would look like if they're fighter lost. Hell they've seen Holyfield win every round against Valuev and still Valuev still won, so in comparison, I could see how they would think Dirrell should have lost, fortunately the rest of the world does not agree.
So, not only has Abraham not apologized for KO'ing Dirrell when he was down and then making the shameful acting claim, he is participating in dragging this farce out to save face with his fans. I have no respect for Saurland or AA at this point. Sorry. Doing the right think really that hard guys? Geez....
No the punch was ilegal, AA has noone else to blame but himself, it was a silly thing to do. What i'm saying is Dirrell pussied out. took the easy option.
