Nah, Dirrell needs to fight Ward and/or Bute. Abraham needs to fight Pavlik and if he can't beat him, either move back down or retire. Still wouldn't mind seeing Pavlik and Williams, maybe at 164.

Dirrell would be nuts to go to Germany to fight Abraham, though I would love to see a rematch anywhere else.
If you took the first fight and looked at the number of times Abraham complained to the ref about legal body shots you can see that had the fight been in Germany Dirrell would have been DQ'd for throwing body punches before the fight even got to the 8th round.
Also, had Abraham landed the punch that he did while Dirrell was on the ground a European Ref would have counted him out and given AA the win.

What he will do if Kessler beats Stieglitz is another matter. Maybe he should target Balszay who's one of the countless WBA champions.

Originally posted by BattlingNelson View PostI'm quite sure any referee would have DQ'ed AA for that shot. That was as blatant a foul as you will ever see.
You would also think any referee would end a fight where a fighter with a broken jaw takes a 10 minute break for medical attention.
Sadly that is not the case in Germany, as that fighter would not only be allowed to continue but would find himself the beneficiary of 5 point deductions.
