Comments Thread For: Abraham vs Dirrell: Wegner Urges Arthur To Get The KO

[Bennett]

People said Dirrell couldn't hurt Froch and he buckled his legs with two decent shots.

Nobody in their right mind though Mosley was going to KO Margarito and he did.

I can't wait till Dirrell does this and I bump this thread telling all you losers to lick my hairy balls.

g1!!!

im with ya, good point on mosley. im a big mosley fan and did not think he would stop tony.

Its going to be a good fight, Dirrell will have to go all out to get a win here, not to sure he can do that though. a.a by des im thinking.

I predict a Dirrell UD.

Dirrell is 6'2 and AA is 5'10...
Dirrell has a reach of 75' while AA has a reach of 72'

Dirrell is a fast southpaw who is mobile and is hard to hit

AA is a walking tank and from watching his fight with Jermain Taylor he is going to get hit alot especially to the body and AA is too slow, and what if he does catch Dirrell? What makes you think it would faze Dirrell from any other punches he's taken.

I think King Arthur Abrahammer will be exposed for his flaws.

They are also fighting on US soil, all advantages are in Dirrells court plus Dirrell is behind and needs this desperately.

Expect a Kessler like upset.

I agree, people need to take the intangibles into account here as well. The unique setup of this tournament leads to different kinds of motivation.

Dirrell has his back against the wall here, if he loses he is done in the tournament and in danger of losing 3 in a row if he fights Ward.

That is serious motivation, couple with Abraham who is probably somewhat content with his 3 points in the bank, and I think we have a recipe for an upset.

You may also remember before Froch-Dirrell that Carl made a big deal about Dirrell waiting until the last week to come over and how it would negatively affect him. Well Abe has made 2 trans-atlantic trips in 3 weeks and is only giving himself the same weeks time as Dirrell did to adjust.

Matrix UD over the King

[lopez36]

yeah abraham will get it a lot,but abraham will hit dirrell too and his punches will do more damage and ko him..

I'm with Arcy, Expect an upset.

I wouldnt be surprised if Dirrel gets a UD, to me this is a 50 50 fight. AA will lose the 1st few rounds as always, and it'll be hard to pull thise rounds back against such a negative fighter, especially as AA sits behind his guard for 2/3+ of the round. When he opens up on Dirrel, he HAS to hit him, and that wont be easy cos when Dirrel see's that AA is about to swing, he'll be on the other side of the ring breaking Bolt's record.

IMO AA has to get a KO to win this, which he is easily capable of, IF he can catch him.

I think its gonna be a stinker of a fight tbh, but worth watching just to see what happens.

I find AA having a hard time hitting someone that is much taller than he is, he won't be able to bully him as such and the leverage on the power shots will be dampened and telegraphed.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dirrell took AA straight shots either way.

Someone on the same physical level as Dirrell (Froch) couldn't do hell all against him, so a negative fighter such as AA will have a hard time if he doesn't accumulate punches throughout the fight.
