    Will Arthur Abraham receive fair officiating from the ref and judges in Michigan?

    Does Abraham need a KO to win on Saturday, or will the Michigan judges be fair?

    Will the home ref help Andre Dirrell and permit him to foul as much as he wants?

      Will the hometown referee protect Dirrell?

            did you complain about abrahams german officiating? everytime taylor hit him with a bodyshot it was called a low blow so all he did the rest of the fight was throw weak ass jabs...quit having double standards.....that said abraham wont be able to outbox dirrell, he has to knock his ass down at least a few times to win.....

                The officiating was fair for that fight.

                None of the officials were from Germany anyway.

                    It's not going to happen. I cannot see any scenario where Abraham gets the nod in a close fight. Abraham will have to be leading by like 5 or 6 rounds to win a decision, I absolutely expect Michigan judges in a fight held in Michigan to try and give the nod to a Michigan fighter if they can in any way justify it.
