Slipping on purpose great tactic for punchers

OMG, how many more threads on this....its just theres been a million threads about the same subject for like a week now.

 

But you think fake-slipping is a good strategy?

I think fake-low-blow acting is pretty effective, actually. Has the effect of raising the virtual belt line and conning the ref in to calling low blows on the opposing fighter. Quite clever, really.

 

I predict a very similar fight in the rematch, but I predict Abraham would win. Dirrell does not have a good chin if a jab could knock him down, and it only takes one punch. Dirrell has to fight the perfect fight and he wasn't even perfect in the Abraham fight and that was the best performance of his career. He got knocked down multiple times and it looked like he was on the verge of being knocked out, the ref literally saved him via DQ because I don't think he could have run around without getting caught, he looked tired, he was backing into the ropes, he was hurt in one situation and the ref literally stopped him from being knocked out. That and Abraham wasn't as sharp as he usually is.


The main reason Abraham started landing better later in the fight is because Abraham started working behind his jab. The same jab which knocked Dirrell down leading to the DQ, the jab actually started to become effective later in the fight when it was neutralized earlier. Abraham can beat Dirrell if he studies Froch's tape and focuses on working behind his jab, and using his timing which surprisingly is very good. Also he has to throw a lot more punches because he cannot beat Dirrell in the early rounds throwing few punches.

That being said Dirrell could win the rematch, I just think Abraham would be a lot more motivated considering he just lost his 0 via DQ to knock Dirrell out. I think Abraham also is a decent boxer but he came with the wrong strategy, too defensive, not aggressive enough in the early rounds. To beat Dirrell you have to be extremely aggressive and pressure him for the full 12 rounds until he mentally and physically breaks down. Shots to the body, the hips, the shoulders, has been shown to slow Dirrell down late in the fight, and Dirrell falls for feints as Froch used feints against him and made him waste energy while Abraham did not use feints and just stood there.

 

yes thats what I'm saying. I'm saying he was blinded by the jab and Abraham can be seen loading up for the knockout punch. The very knockout punch which ultimately knocked Dirrell out very well could have landed after the jab landed in a 1-2 combination at the very least, or Dirrell could have backed into the corner and have been trapped and beaten senseless, either way it looked like he was running for his life and just trying to avoid being knocked out.

 

Fighters take a knee etc.. but no one, I repeat, "NO ONE" SLIPS on purpose just so they can take "mule kick" from an animal like Arthur Abraham. :bbb

 

Come on... Please look over what you wrote. The exact "punch" that preceed the "FOUL" was a left jab that barely touched Dirrell but Abraham kept it extended following Dirrell to the canvas. Then the idiot shifts his weight, pivots, and lets the "vicious" right hook fly. The rest of your account is nothing but "if's". History is full of "IF'S"...:bbb

So the jab knocked him down. Fair enough. Would you say the jab was more or less powerful than the sweeping underhand right that ultimately caused the DQ?

Let me answer for you. It was clearly a harder punch.

But you're on record saying that AD faked the KO.

So, to summarize your position. AD has a terrible chin and can be knocked down by a jab. But, when hit with a flush head-snapping punch to the jaw while sitting down and not looking, AD is unhurt and in fact cleverly fakes a knockout in order to secure a DQ.

In short, you're complete moron.

 

they never stop trying..the man got hit and got a concussion..stop trying to suggest this bull****hat
