    Depends on Dirrell. If Dirrell is seriously hurt, Abraham should face possible expulsion from the tournament. Although, at this point that would be pointless, so I don't know. There has to be someway to punish him without ruining the tournament, but I can't think of anything severe enough.
    He wasn't. He was released from hospital and didn't even suffer a mild concussion.

      He should be disqualified from that fight. Oh and maybe have to give Dirrell his award on oscar night.

          the man was knocked out cold, dont be ******. abraham was already losing anyways if it says UD or DQ on his record is irrelevant. he took uncalled for risks with his oponents health and should be penalized. again tyson was fined for what he did to holyfield, id rather lose part of my ear than get knocked out cold from a cheap shot in my hometown in front of my entire family.

            im a fan of abraham but what he did last night made me sick. he had his nights, when he knocked out kingsley ikeke to become world champion and defended it several times. his very last fight against taylor, scoring a dramatic knockout in the last seconds lifting all of his hometwon fans out of their seats to cheer for him. that night he truly was king.

            but last night was dirrells night, abraham shouldve taken his loss like man. dirrell was clearly the better fighter that night, i was on my feet for several rounds in awe of his ability not even realizing i hadnt sat down yet. u can tell he trained his ass of and he fought a brilliant fight, this was his night to stand tall with his arms raised as his hometown fans cheered him on.

            instead he ended on his back from a cheap shot thrown by a sore loser, no matter if he gets the W on his record or not he deserved better. laid out in front of his whole family and lots of friend in a fight he won. and thats not even mentioning the physical trauma he went through suffering a brutal KO like that.

            abraham did a terrible thing, then again we all make mistakes and we need to keep in mind it was a heat of the moment type of thing. considering the consequenses i still think he should be punished, this is a dangerous sport and dirrell couldve been injured permanently.

            i think he should lose the extra point he gained from knocking out taylor. put him at 2 points next to ward, dirrell and froch. thats a fair punishment imo that will send a statement to fighters about sportmanship. thoughts?
            the DQ was punishment enough...now moving on Arthur Will Be Back And he will do a beatdown on his next opponent..

              He wasn't knocked out cold. How many times have you seen someone to take a full twenty seconds to realise they have been knocked out cold? "Hey, you hit me while I was down, you're going to lose a point... hey, I could lie down now and win by DQ... ok I'll lie down and pretend to twitch a bit".

              I don't like Dirrell. I don't like the way he runs, the way he avoids exchanging, the way he complains to the ref and the way he flops to the ground all the time. He started the fight brilliantly but by the end of the tenth AA was connecting frequently and Dirrell saw his opportunity to get his win more easily and took it.

              It was a legit DQ but Dirrell made a meal of it.

                    This is exactly like Jones vs. Montell Griffin. Abraham got a DQ. It's fair. Why is everyone upset?

                      That's what I don't get about american fighters in the super six. Ward had the fight going for him against Kessler but decided to end it cheap with headbutt's until stoppage. Now with Dirrell. He starts to tire, feel AA power yet he was way ahead on scorecards. He get hit takes his gloves infront of his face waits up.. does his little dance. A DQ is announced and up he is like nothing happened screaming for the fight to continue American style fighting = ****** tactics.
