People already forgetting the Mcclellan incident

[HandSpeed303]

okey then how about eubank-watson II? watson took one big shot and went down, got back up and even came out for the next round.

That would have been a better example.


the mcclellan comparison wasnt about what did the damage anyways, it was about how a fighter can look okey one second and be hurt badly the next. the point is there is no reason to think dirrell was faking it, none whatsoever. he took a massive shot, there was a delayed reaction and then he went down badly hurt and unable to continue.

I never said he was....


only a sad twisted individual would say dirrell faked it, he fought a brilliant fight no way he wanted to go out like that. who would fake being knocked out in front of their hometown crowd and family in a fight they already have in the bag? and yes the fight was in the bag, abraham was swinging wildly but dirrell was still too fast and skilled for him.

Once again, I never said anything like this...Not even close.:wtf:

Bold and big..

These two situations are not comparable in my opinion.

I have never seem anyone say that....

If so, shame on them.

But through out my time on any boxing forum, I have yet to see that kind of statement...

They normally cop a ban after making the statement. Then come back under an alt of course, but usually circumspect enough to avoid making the same mistake again. Usually.

I hear you.

I just haven't seem it. I'm glad I haven't either. That would just make me sick. The nerve of some people.

Not even that.

Natasha Richardson

Now that was sad.


On 16 March 2009, Richardson sustained a head injury when she fell while taking a skiing lesson at the Mont Tremblant Resort in Quebec, about 130 kilometres (81 mi) from Montreal. The injury was followed by a lucid interval, when Richardson seemed to be fine and was able to talk and act normally. Paramedics and an ambulance which initially responded to the accident were told they were not needed and left.[17] Refusing medical attention, she returned to her hotel room and about three hours later was taken to a local hospital in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts after complaining of a headache. She was transferred from there by ambulance to Hôpital du Sacré-Cœur, Montreal, in critical condition and was admitted about seven hours after the fall.[18][19] The following day she was flown to Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, where she died on 18 March.[1] An autopsy conducted by the New York City Medical Examiners Office on 19 March revealed the cause of death was an "epidural hematoma due to blunt impact to the head", and her death was ruled an accident.[17]

One minute people are talking about Direll getting KO'd by Abraham and saying he has no chance...saying Abraham is a world beater and can KO anyone at any point....of course this is true...

But when he DOES land a massive clean punch on the chin of Direll when he is defenseless and on the floor....suddenly he's Malignaggi and Direll is an oscar winning actor? Get the **** out of here. I am a big fan of King Arthur and think he'll bounce back from this and still hope him or Kessler win this thing, but the man punched Direll when he was down so it was a damn DQ and thats that. I hate the damn inconsistency on this board when rooting for your own fighters...learn to accept boxing for what it is...if you don't, you're not a proper fan.
