      1)The moment Direll was "injured" it was ovbious that Shaw was trying to stack the deck against AA. He gets injured, but knows exactly when he will be better. Then the fight venue changed from Cali to Detroit (WTF.) Now a home cooked ref and 3 judges.

      2) Now, I believe AAs boxing ability is completely underrated, his footwork is amazing and his ability to set up his opponent exactly where he wants him to be is ignored. That being said he can win a decision, assuming the judges have not already filled out their scorecards.

      3) It is possible that Dirrel may win this fight legitimately, possible but highly unlikely.

      4) No referee in the world would have saved kessler from the ass kicking he got.

        Why do you always jump to conclusions? You're automatically assuming Abraham will get robbed.

        If he does under the current way things are going, then go ahead, post away. But until then, take a valium.

        I'd also be very curious to see what you have to say if Dirrell wins legitimately, but I have a feeling you've already made up your mind about that.

You are defending cheating in boxing, should be ashamed. Dirrell won the Froch fight and it wasn't even close, he was robbed. I like Abraham too but if Dirrell wins, he wins.
          Totally agree with this dude, in fact I reckon they could put Armenian Germans in and dirrell will still win the fight, the guy will just be too damn fast for Abrahams basic Euro style.

          And he was robbed against Froch.

              They would have abided by the terms of the Super Six contract and appointed neutral officials if they didn't intent to rob Arthur.

              C'mon, all FOUR officials (three judges and the ref) are from Michigan. That's why Dirrell faked the back injury to get it moved to his home state.

              Of course they will rob Arthur. Anybody who can't figure that out is a naive idiot!

              I'm just hoping he can take matters into his own hands by somehow catching that running ***** Dirrell with a good punch.

                And as said in a post earlier today in Bat's thread, they should go by the rules. However, I must say that according to his thread that one ref will be from Mexico, the one that scored the fight for him against Froch. Alejandro Rochin, IIRC.

                However, all home judges or not, the fight has yet to take place and to say that they will automatically rob Abraham is a cynical way to look at it, IMO. That, or this was a wind up thread to begin with.

                Lastly, why is it that you always call Dirrell a running *****, but never call Beibut Shumenov one? Surely you saw his first fight with Campillo.

                  hes not robbed till it actually happens, but youve got to admit its pretty fishy. get "injured", change venue across country, have the 3 judges and ref from hometown. I mean people arent blind. I hope that it is a fair decisison because I am from the States and a robbery looks bad on the enitre country's judges, but its not looking good going in.

                    I agree with the statement he's not robbed until it actually happens. People jump to conclusions.

                    For all I know, he was actually injured, but I can see how odd it looks to then have it go to Detroit. Also, as I said above one judge is supposedly not from MI, according to a post made earlier today by BattlingNelson.
