    I cant think of many other active fighters who wouldve continued in AA's condition.

    Epic fight that I havent watched in ages, AA won the fight & the EVT

    Exactly. Abraham was as dirty as Miranda with his holding and rabbit punching. Neuman (ref) did everything he could to protect Abraham, even pulls Miranda off him for no reason at some point to ask Abraham if he is OK. Abraham is asked if he can continue after the broken jaw and he clearly says No. At that point the fight should be over. Even the ring doctor says he cannot continue. Only in Germany does the promoter (Wilfred Corruption Sauerland) allowed to take over and insist that the fight continue.

    Although the rematch went way differently, you cannot take away what happened in their first fight. Miranda was completely screwed by the ref. Even with all deductions, most boxing analyst STILL had Miranda ahead on the cards.
