According to german media Andre Dirrell did not deliver the post-fight doping test by leaving for the hospital.
According to the rules a urinesample must be delivered within an hour after the fight.
Dirrell left for hospital before such a sample could be taken.
Andre "Did I win?" Dirrell.......poor guy, time to retire Andre as I'm sure you won't ever be able to fight again due to the life threatening brain trauma you have suffered. In 3 weeks time, we will hear of him miraculously feeling better and signing his next fight......wha????
Do you really think Kessler has a chance? The ref didn't save Andre Ward. Ward was clearly dominating the fight. Kessler has no chance against a fighter who knows how to fight on the inside too.
He does have a chance. But I wouldn't bet my house on it lol.
Kessler was awful against Ward, and his corner was worse. No real advice other than: "You gotta hit first" and "Do you want me to stop it".
I prefer Ward-Kessler II. In Denmark with Kessler's neighbor as referee. That would even things out a bit.

"Eye whant to bee big in Amerika!" Lol........
That was a good one but him losing his Belt and baggage made me chuckle. It was a like a boxing soap opera.
A point deduction after the first headbutt and a DQ after the second.........
Even Kessler's mother wouldn't of been that harsh.
In the words of Kessler "He took my belt and my passport"
There isn't a referee in the world who get Kessler a win over Ward. In they fought under the above circumstances I would still bet my 401K on Ward.
If they fought 100 times Kessler would never beat Ward, not even once, not in Denmark, not with his own mother as the ref.

Why does this seem like Mayweather-Hatton all over again?

by comparison to the european judges.. what 3 KDs? he missed one for each fighter so it was even, he didnt favor eighter fighter like the referees here in europe.
nobody over in germany has been allowed to hit abraham in the stomach before, atleast he got that right. and he did a good job of breaking up clinches etc. compare that to the british judge who let froch hold and hit anytime he damn well pleased and body slam dirrell to the canvas.
btw if dirrell was a faker he shouldve faked it there and got a DQ and a belt in a fight that was acctually difficult for him.
Does it matter wheter or not he is more or less incompetent than other incompetent refs?
The fact remains that the referee was a disaster.
Good thread Nelson,I hope Arthur gets the deserved rematch and hopefully its in Germany where its totally unbiased and the best man wins.

Yeah this fight had one of the worst referees in recent memory. A problem that has marred the supersix fights on US soil so far.

Referee in the first Miranda fight: "Arthur, are you alright?"
:eek:
Are you serious????? Missing 1-3 KD's and being out of position on several occasions including the final slip.

This is pathetic. So you acting like Dirrell planned all this out?
This thread is a disgrace.
Dirrel sees the Matrix, the future can be altered with his mind. He made Abraham punch him. Andre could of avoided that punch with ease if he wanted to.
