Andre Dirrell vs Arthur Abraham revisited
Collapse
-
I was chatting with The Gambler about Dirrell,and how his career has went since this fight..So I re-watched it..Man this was a very strange ride of emotions..
Obviously AA was in the wrong for throwing the punch,Dirrell was also wrong tho..You can't throw ya self on the canvas to avoid punishment,it's dangerous and(imo)cheating..I feel bad that a super talent like Dirrell had this happen to him ya know..You don't wish this on anybody..
I hope other young fighters see this and understand that it's not a smart move to throw ya self on the canvas,your really vulnerable..It's very hard to defend your self from that position(and you must protect ya self at all times in the ring)..Makes me think back to a few weeks back when B-Hop slip on the floor and Murat,he covered up super quick..Murat threw punches as well..That is a very dangerous position..
This was a crazy fight,great one to re-watch..I hope Dirrell can come back or do something lucrative to provide for his family..

shame...this fight more or less signaled the end of Dirrell's career as well as the end of Abraham's good fortune in the boxing ring. Dirrell was winning comfortably, but I hated his style...still you don't want to see what happened to him happen to any fighter. And I believe if Abraham would have accepted accountability for that punch then and there in the post-fight interview he wouldn't have lost so much respect.

Why does Dirrell's name get thrown around this board so much as of late? He got a lot of mileage out of that cheapshot, ironically it's also the nail in the coffin of his career.
