"I didn't see he was down"

He swung down. Hit him center on the side of his head. I hope it was just a one time bad call on his part, and he shouldn't be banned from the super six or something to drastic like that, but he should of been DQ'd for the fight, which he was.

Yeah, I mean, I feel like the correct punishment was given. This is more to the people defending his ****** explanation of not recognizing that he was down.

I mean, I can see where Abe is coming from as a fighter myself, I know I could have been capable of doing the same thing if I was behind and getting a little desperate. But what he did was definitely ****** and wrong, and he deserved the DQ. Simple.

And he most definitely knew Dirrell was down. You do not fight a guy, and then as you are fighting not notice that he slips down, it automatically catches your attention when your opponent falls.

He was completely sitting on his ass when he got tagged

Abraham got what he deserved

AA was DQ and rightly so, The thing is why swing at a fighter that looked to be down to everyone including you (AA), No way did he not see that Dirrell was down according to all the reports on the fight.

If AA had land a punch that caused Dirrell to go down would he still hit him while he was down? it seems AA took advantage of the slip by landing intentional and thats a behaviour i cannot support sorry.

The only thing that can defend AA is that he missed two punches and was looking outside the ring before it. I don't know if he is telling the truth, but all that happened within a second and sometimes when you look fast from one way to the other, you don't see movement such as slipping because you were focussed elsewhere.

just got chance to watch it
i believe him
dirrell was doin lot of dippin n rollin with punches
like he said with his eye in its condition and him thinkin dirrell was simply tryin to dip from other punches
in the slow mo replay it looks like he notices hes down and is lookin at him
but watch it in real time
its pretty clear he didnt notice his legs were down
still deserved DQ tho
just cuz i dont think dirrell could have or should have to continue
