If Dirrell Faked It Then Why Would He.......

it's possible that he got hit with the punch, blacked out, then after his head clears he starts bugging out because he realizes that the fight is over and doesn't know what's going on. he probably assumed he got knocked out. i can imagine someone experiencing unconsciousness for the first time freaking out about it afterwards.

say that he got KO? You can say that he was trying to play dumb or whatever but I dont think those words still would come out of anyone's mouths who faked it to get a win. They dont want to put any negative thought in the public's head. You could say the crying was fake, the speaker comment was fake, and anything else but I just dont believe he would say that he got KO if he was faking. At 1st when I saw him crying and the guy talking to him, I thought he was just upset that they didnt let him finish the fight and he wanted to finish it outright but he said that he got KO. No way he would say that if he was faking. I think the whole interview itself proves that he wasnt but even if you dont believe anything else from the shaking, to the interview, crying, or whatever, you still have to think its strange that he said he got KO. I just dont believe he would say that in his right mind or even think to say that if he was faking because it puts negative thoughts in the public's head like you were about to get KO Dirrell won, they can have a rematch later.

i agree that there was a delayed reaction, but not the same reaction that you're thinking of. convulsing one second and then getting up hollering and crying?? BS. He could have faked it...that's a possibility. But I'm not him. I wasn't hit so I can't be sure.

First of all, Whoever thinks Dirrell faked it is a complete idiot. Anyone who has ever spent multiple amounts of rounds in a ring with anyoe knows why happened tonight what was no game. Yes, AA hit dirrell when he shouldn't have, but the argument could be made it wasn't intentional and it was based on instinct. At the same time, anyone 10 round deep in a boxing match such as that getting hit like that would have had there body convulsing in the same way. To question dirrell like that is disrespectful not only to the sport but to the people that risk there life to entertain your sorry asses to begin with. You wanna talk like that then step in the ring. im not being disrespectful. i favored abraham, but i wanted dirrell to win. there's no malice in my posts. i just HONESTLY think he was faking it. his actions were inconsistent and it was way too over the top. him already being released from the hospital tells me he was not as hurt as much as he was putting on. dude was convulsing on the canvas, but yet he shows no signs of even a mild concussion? pfff.

Berbick and Tubbs were up. Point was there was a delayed reaction. Dirrell was already in the down on his ass position. Here is the Jones DQ for anybody that needs it Roy Jones Jr Vs. Montell Griffin IPaul Coney | MySpace Video i agree that there was a delayed reaction, but not the same reaction that you're thinking of. convulsing one second and then getting up hollering and crying?? BS.

if you ever been hit by a hard shot, you'll feel sick to your stomach, and get a huge migraine, he did'nt fake it

dirrell did not react like berbick or tubbs. he dint even look dazed. he thought about it for a second, then went down. even when he got up he didnt look glossy eyed or out of it. he was just faking confusion...very poorly.

I acted exactly like him when I got cheap shot kod. If he was faking then I must have been to. Yeah cause that logic makes perfect sense.

IMO he was not knocked out, he looked to me like he faked it. People are saying why would he do that when he's well ahead on the cards etc.? Maybe because he was on his bike again, which is part of the reason he lost the decision to Froch and maybe because he saw the way Abraham knocked out Taylor in the 12th round his last fight. Abraham should've been DQ'd though I agree on that.

Delays happen. Watch more fights. Please tell me you at least watched Tyson do it to Berbick? How about Tyson vs. Tubbs? Gerald McClellan went down but he wasn't flat on his back until a bit later. dirrell did not react like berbick or tubbs. he dint even look dazed. he thought about it for a second, then went down. even when he got up he didnt look glossy eyed or out of it. he was just faking confusion...very poorly.

Looking at the vid again and again, he looks dodgy. I have seen women pretend to faint like that or kids acting like that. I think most if not all the time, boxers drop straight down from a punch, rather than 1 second delay Delays happen. Watch more fights. Please tell me you at least watched Tyson do it to Berbick?

Dirrell fought a great fight. Abraham should have known coming in that he'd have to be active a bit earlier because Dirrell was much quicker and more elusive to hit than anybody he'd ever faced before. Instead he fought Dirrell like he fought everyone in the past and this hurt him quite a bit. I watched the fight and I have to say I thought Dirrell was acting immediately. I felt this way for two main reasons. To start off with Abraham hit Dirrell in his jaw but Dirrell put his glove up to his temple area and acted as if the blow landed their instead. Even after he got back to his dressing room they were icing his temple area when he clearly got hit in his lower left jaw. Secondly, was my opinion of Dirrell's delayed response after he got hit. Specifically the way Dirrell started to shake as if he was convulsing after getting hit. This was very strange because if you get hit hard enough to convulse you do it immediately. Dirrell didn't start to convulse right away. You can get hit and have a delayed reaction (because your equilibrium is off) and then fall out but you don't get hit and have a delayed reaction and then start to convulse. When someone gets hit hard enough to shake they are truly ****ed up and it happens right away. You don't see someone get hit like Dirrell did, lie down with his hands on his head and then start to twitch 8-10 seconds later. This was bullshit. Dirrell fought a great fight but he was tired, knew he would win on the DQ and chose to act at the end. What Abraham did (fouling out of frustration) was bad and he deserved the DQ. Good fight nonetheless and the drama that has occurred so far in this tournament really makes me want to see who will prevail in the end... Makes some sense. But if your knocked out to the jaw the brain is hurt. Maybe that part of his head was hurting. After a knock out putting ice on the area of your head that is hurt is a good idea. If the brain swells to much it can be bad.

Easy...AA was closing in---started to land vicious shots...Dirrell was thinking "what the hell am I takin' these shots for? I'm a slick boxer--I shouldn't be getting hit like this. I'm still young; I'm ahead in the scorecards and the people will understand it....I'll fake it now." Exactly!!!!!!Green k!

You must be a doctor right.... :wtf: My wife is and I watched the fight with her and some of her colleagues (also physicians).

I'm still young; I'm ahead in the scorecards and the people will understand it....I'll fake it now." you gotta love the irony, he was taking such huge, vicious, monstrous shots but was ahead on the score cards in round 11 about 6 minutes away from celebrating the asswhooping he gave out but he decided to fake being knocked out instead.

BS, he thought about it for a second before he went down to the canvas. his actions after the punnch were completely inconsistent with someone getting KO'd. abraham was rightfully dq'd though. abraham got beat and he lost the fight by committing the foul. dirrell didnt have to act, but he did and it was pathetic.

Why would you entertain these bias pieces of shits? Dirrell was bawling cuz he thought he had gotten legitamitely KTFO and had to be told by his people and reminded (because he didn't even believe them) that he had actually won the fight after getting hit while on the ground. Dirrell was on his way to winning the fight and got knocked out by an illegal punch by a frustrated opponent trying to rally. End of. Yeah, thats pretty much it.
