Why would Abril tell Jim Gray his weakness

[QQQQQQQ]

In his post fight interview he exposed himself.

He told Jim Gray dirty fighters bother him and that was why he struggled vs bogere.

If im his next opponent im pushing, wrestling, hitting behind the head, maybe even a low blow or 2 to frustrate Abril.


Am i the only one who thinks it was ****** of him to say that?

Yea that is pretty dumb, although most guys don't like to deal with dirty fighters. it is part of the reason I accept dirty fighting so much because if a guy can't deal with it the other guy should be using those tricks.

yup its apart of the sport. only the best can adjust and adapt to dirty fighters. if abril had a probably with bogeres head coming in he should hva ekept him at bay with the jab

It doesn't matter. All it takes it 1 film to see he looks worse against dirty fighters, then just do what the other guy did that made him look ordinary.

It would have been noted even if he didn't say it, who cares.

Most of the time interpreters butcher what boxers are saying. I speak Spanish, and I didn't take it as him confessing a weakness, it's more about him disliking the way that Borgere fought and taking subtle jabs at the ref. If anything, one can argue that Abril himself is a borderline dirty fighter with all the clinching.

Well who really deals well with a dirty fighter to begin with? Especially if the ref lets the dirty boxer cheat the entire fight? It's boxing not MMA.

If his next opponent wants to come in and low blow, headbutt, hit behind the head for the entire fight, then let them lose points and get DQ'd. It's understandable that stuff like that will occasionally happen during the fight but if that is your style, then you deserve to lose via DQ.

In a perfect world yes, but that's hardly ever the case. It's part of the game, some boxers are just dirty and get away with it. B-Hop with all his dirty vet tricks, Bradley with this head, Mares using people's balls as his personal speed bag, ect.

Doesn't matter whether he told him or not. He just said he didn't like it and all one has to do is watch the tape and come to the conclusion. Either way he was able to deal with it and win.
