Is it me or is Arthur Abraham-Andre Dirrell a really tough call?

[keepthemhandsup]

i got dirrell for this one....but im not suprised if AA knocks him out.

[Roy Hobbs]

tough call indeed. dirrell could outwork abraham because of his speed, athleticism, & youth. he could tee off & get out of range of abrahams counter.

king arthur via ko. it will be like the taylor fight, but it will end earlier around 6-7. i dont think direll would be able to withstand the power.

i love how if u go to the body of AA u hit elbows or get penalized for a low blow and if u go upstairs u hit leather

he wont have his german ref.....i hope................

but seriously......abraham's defense to the body is **** from a boxing standpoint......refs have been bailing him out....and he produces a lot of the low blows he gets caught with because he moves up and down when people are flurrying to his body....its his ****ing fault that he puts his nuts in the way of punches...

Not really King AA is KTFO Dirrell. When will people learn? AA has one of the best defenses in boxing, P4P was on the hardest punchers in boxing, incredible strong, and one of the smartest fighters in boxing. The more I think about it, the more I feel sorry for Andre Dirrell

I saw some weaknesses when he fought Taylor. He was standing in the middle of the ring with his guard up just looking to counter, I don't know too many boxers that do that, but that's not really a smart move because Abraham was wide open to the body.


Also he's much slower than Dirrell and Direll is a much more intelligent boxer then Taylor.

If they had velcro shoes it would be an easy Abraham win, but im not sure he can keep up chasing Direll all night long, and i don't expect Direll to ever stop running in this one.

Abraham should be able to get to him at somepoint over the 12, froch couldnt but Arthur is more intelligant and technically sound, he should be able to cut off the ring at some point, and then it's good night Andre, on the other hand if direll fights perfectly he should be able to run rings around Abraham and win a ud.

I can see two outcomes. Either Dirrell wins by decision or Abraham stops him late after behind on the scorecards.

Abraham could stop him at any stage, one decent clean shot and its all over imo.

The thing is though, Direll is a slippery bastard, he has great reflexes, i think it might not be a bad idea to concentrate on his body, because he is great at avoiding head shots, the body though? im not so sure.

I've never seen Abraham cut the ring, he will need to against Abraham. From what I've seen Froch is better at cutting the ring then Abraham is.
