The DQ will only make Abraham stronger.

Okay....

Well, in the heat of the moment, margo had a chance to stop, but instead, he delivered one last right hand...Cott's knee, and gloves were down.

My point?

Many have acted like AA is the only one in boxing history to do this. He is not. He made a mistake. That got him DQ'ed.

He is not a cheat, or a discrace...Like many now have dubbed him.

That is my point.

Roy paid for his late hit, so did Soto. The ref looked at the Margo/Cotto situation as a heat of the moment thing.

It happens. That is all i'm saying.

Man Handspeed I was saying the same thing last night. People act like Abe did that maliciously. It was the heat of the moment and people fail to realize how often that happens in boxing. The Ref got in the middle of Shane and Marg and Shane still hit Margarito.

Also Tyson is my favorite fighter of all-time, but he has done this 3-4 times if not more throughout his career. It just boils down to a fighter being too aggressive and not stopping when deemed necessary. Many have done this, so there is no need to bash Abraham like he is some type of criminal.

AA is not a criminal but he did what he did out of frustration. He paid the price for it.

Yeah, it has been a trip all day with this crap....

The punch was not necessary, but I see how it could happen.

Dirrell won, no matter how, he won. AA lost. I for one feel he will be back. In and outside of the tourney.

Dirrell got himself a good win last night...That is never enough for NSB though. Everything has to turn into some kind of war.

Bottom line.

[TheKza]

Disappointed with the fight plan from AA. He should gone hard early and that would screwed dirrell up.

Dre did good though, but i always knew he would get KTFO during some point in the fight.Hopefully he recovers well , because he was showing some bad signs after the fight.

[ballgamessuck]

Watch for him to try and end fights earlier now. Carl Froch is in for a thrashing of lifetime peeps.

Agreed. AA will realize that he cant give up rounds like that, and he was giving up a lot of them, not saying Dirrell wouldnt have been leading the scorecards anyway, but not by such a wide margin. I still think it will come down to AA vs Ward in the final, and if AA meets Dirrell in the semis he will come out with both guns blazing and put Dirrell to sleep.

I agree. Never disputed the DQ and I thought it was the right call. I guess I see things different than most on this board because I grew up a huge Tyson fan and Iron Mike was notorious for doing that.
