    I've never seen Bernard **** back and plow a fighter in the face after he's slipped to the canvas.

      I'm a huge Abraham fan, and Dirrell did what he had to do tonight. Abraham had a chance, but blew it, he got emotional.

      all the credit to Dirrell for dominating the first 9 Rds, but it all it takes is one punch with Abraham, and it tide was turning after the KD Abraham scored. Which wasn't called a KD, but you can sense Dirrell was in trouble.

      Problem was, he started chasing Andre with his left hook and missed, besides cutting the ring with behind his jab like he was doing fduring certain rounds.

      his corner was telling him the right things, but for the first time he didn't listen. Abe is usually discipline, but not tonight. He needed to go to the body more, which his corner was urging, throw combos to the body and head, and push Dirrell to the corner. That's how you stop a runner.

      I believe he'll wreck Froch, Andre Ward is what worries me.

        Hop is a dirty ass fighter though, and I wouldn't call that ****ing back. He landed a punch that Dirrell probably walks through during sparring.

        his emotions got the best of him, but Dirrell wasn't that hurt, he was up and grabbed his eye. Then falls back and acts like he's knocked out cold, he doesn't suffer a concussion, but has amnesia after the fight?

            There should be more posts like this.

                You rock!

                About Abraham, always thought he was a bit 1 dimensional. I wish that the fight would have lasted, because he was coming back and Dirrell was tired, seemed like his reflexes got worn out too... Interesting.

                    Utter bullcrap. You use headgear in sparring and usually 16oz+ gloves. Plus that you don't whack your sparring partner while he's slipped on the canvas and has both gloves planted solidly. That was a knock-out punch. You write it like he was graced. The punch came from behind with his weight in it and was planted on his jaw-line and to make it worse Dirrell never saw it coming. That's not a jab or "a punch that Dirrell probably walks through during sparring"...
