    bad punch from abraham. to be fair i think abraham was only too over aggressive an instinct in which he really needed a KO to win. i think the punch that abraham threw was due to his urge to KO Dirrel and win the fight.

    on the other hand i wonder if its only me or dirrel pauses for a moment then try to act after the punch im not quit sure though.

    It looks like acting because Dirrell didn't go limp right away, which is what we expect him to do to look convincingly hurt. On the other hand, Dirrell might be genuinely hurt in there and he was trying to compose himself after the punch but he can't do it. We will never know for sure the real answer there.

    But the DQ call is a good call.

    Abraham really turned on that punch. That was a full swivel, no way that didn't hurt. Clearly out of frustration.

    It is funny the more I watch that tape, I see a jab landed on Direll, I wonder if the jab landed was before the "slip"?

    i dont think dirrel was acting because in the middle of it all i heard telling his corner "ill finish it" i think he wanted to fight still but he seemed all over the place

    Was Dirrell Crying, That is a clear sign to me he wasnt acting he probably thought he lost the fight right there.

    Who Cries like that.

    Im not really a fan of either man so im not bias to either fighter but for those saying Andre was acting he sure looked upset and lost to me.

    He hit him while he was clearly down. Slip or knockdown.
