Abrahams Dirrell: Effing Bizarre

[KittenFlaps]

I can't be alone here. That fight was bananas right? Strange from start to finish. Laurence Cole's refereeing, the announcers, the DQ, the post fight?

I'm not trying to argue any side of any argument on this fight, I just wanna talk about how weird that fight was.

Topic 1: Laurence Cole's not a knockdown decision and the breakup in the corner. Laurence Cole hates Europe.

Topic 2: The awesome post fight interview with a winner who didn't know he won. We just witnessed boxing highlights history.

You're not allowed to keep your hand on the opponent's face for too long. Holmes used to do that and got warned numerious times. That's why Cole stepped in to stop it.

[KittenFlaps]

You're not allowed to do a lot of things. Just seemed like a crazy time to decide to split them up for that. Especially after ignoring a few low shots.

DO NOT get me wrong. I am not saying Abraham was going to win or this or that. I am simply saying there was a lot of weird **** during this fight.

i agree..funniest fight ive ever seen

Also the doctor actually fixing abrahams cut rather than "checking if hes fit to continue" what up with that???


Also abraham got hit with a low blow and cole said "i know i saw it", then let the fight continue, lol

I know right?! I totally forgot about the ringside doc! "I told you to check it, not clean it and apply pressure!"

It was terrible refereeing all night,just bizarre.

Lawrence Cole was the same ref that got suspended (I think) for telling a fighter after he was decked in the nuts "You want to continue? You're ahead on the score cards."

Yeah, apparently he is pretty incestuously tied into boxing. He owns an insurance company that insures boxers and his father is on the Texas commission?

I would be shocked, but then I realize it's boxing I am talking about.

That incident with the Doctor confused me big time. I didn't know the doctor would be allowed to treat his cut.

What sort of response is "I know, I saw it" to a low blow? I only saw the fight once and think AA exaggerated some of these "low blows" and thought he only had a case for one, but I need to watch again.
