    So why was he disqualified?

          I think Abraham knew what he was doing. Was probably pissed because he was losing, and did something dumb. I understand why he did it, but it's still ****ed up.

              If you watch the footage it all happened very quickly.

              He shouldn't have thrown it, though.

                at the end of the fight he said he punches people as their just going down or gone down. so he pretty much admitted that he punched him, he just didnt think it was hard enough to knock dirrell out

                    Yea it was all real quick, in super slow mo it looks like a long time but it all hapeaned in like a 3 second window from the slip to Dirrell laying on the canvas.

                      A fighter is also supposed to abide by the rules of boxing, such as no hitting on the break, and no hitting a of a downed opponent, no rabbit punching, etc.
