Arthur Abraham deserves to have the Dirrell fight changed to a K.O Victory

[JDezi4]

Are u sure its not RACISM that lead you to think that way? Abraham fouled Dirrell, and Dirrell couldn't continue.... Learn that rules, thats a DQ.... If Victor headbutted Floyd so hard, Floyd couldn't continue, Victor would have been automatically disqualified...

The absolutely obvious bias about this thread is this simple fact.... The referee said "Let's go!".... He waved them in and gestured to the time keeper to start the clock. Now, he messed up the order a bit, he should have started the clock before waving them in (international sign for "start fighting again"), but in the end, that really wouldn't have mattered...

So Floyd committed no crime as far as the rules go, while Arthur Abraham did. This thread is a fail, and the TS is obviously racist

[Cutthroat]

lmao they're nothing alike, Mayweather's punch was legal even though it was a b*tch move Abraham's punch was not.

Dirrell was on the canvas, Abraham saw it and was frustrated after getting schooled the entire fight and hit him illegally. Abraham doesn't need to be told that hitting a downed fighter is illegal, you KNOW low blows, punches behind the head, elbows, headbutts etc. are illegal. Abraham knew what he was doing was illegal and still did it lmao, please just stfu because you're embarrassing yourself.

If Ortiz did that to Floyd nobody would defend it.

he would've been dq'd in a second and everyone would've called him a dirty lowlife and a cheater.

But the media is too cowardly to say that about any black fighters.

Hell Hopkins got away with slandering Calzaghe in front of a bunch of reporters and nobody blinked.

So it is what it is.

[JDezi4]

Lol, you've literally been disproven by people that actually know the rules, and aren't racist like every other comment, and yet u still think u have an argument?

It wasn't like AA was throwing a combination and caught Dirrell on the way down. AA saw Dirrell fall, hesitated for a second, which means he was thinking to himself "Damn, he fell, I can't hit him (which means he was fully aware of what he was doing)", then basically said "U know wut, **** it... I'll probably just get a warning, or at worst a point deduction... I'm going for it" then through the punch.

AA's hesitation before throwing the punch says it all... There's absolutely NO comparison other than that a controversial punched prematurely ended a fight... Other than that, nothing

[BigStereotype]

Time wasn't out. Time was in. Dirrell slipping on his own or turning his back on his own and looking away is the same thing.

Protect yourself at all times right?

Yeah, true. I didn't think that Abraham should have been DQed for that. Dirrell oversold it. Point deduction? Sure. But the difference is that there was a knee on the ground. It really changes the appearance of the situation.

[S.G.]

The ref didn't do anything in either fight.

Protect yourself at all times. You can't have it both ways. At least AA didn't double his money by throwing a second flagrant punch.

You lose.

Mayweather was within his rights to throw the second punch. It was legal, just like the first.

For that brief moment after he slipped, Dirrell was physically incapable of protecting himself. This quote is straight out of the Marquess of Queensbury Rules: "A man on one knee is considered down, and if struck is entitled to the stakes."

What Mayweather did to Ortiz was simply gamesmanship.

ANOTHER FUNNY THING ABOUT THIS THREAD.... apparently ur gripe is that the media isn't unanimously referring to Floyd as a dirty fighter.... But the reason for that is that the media actually knows the rules of boxing, and knows that Floyd didn't do anything "dirty".... What he did was legal.... It's not the media's fault that they're educated in the sport.

Everyone knows the facts.

Its obvious to see what kind of people are supporting this and how tightly they're sticking together.

Decent people need to stick together and fight back accordingly.

Fight fire with fire.

The punch was in the heat of the moment and Dirrell fell on his own. AA doesn't owe him a count.

Don't try to justify Fraud throwing two blatant sucker punches when the action was stopped and then say that what AA did was worse because it was not.

Like what Mayweather did

Don't let yourself be fouled, especially with a dip**** like Cortez in the ring. It's unfortunate that that's how the fight ended but I still think that Floyd was justified in sneaking in a cheap shot back.
