Comments Thread For: Dirrell Drops King Arthur To Win, Suffers Brutal Knockout

[Rome-By-Ko]

Gary Shaw has said that he'll never promote a fight in Michigan ever again because of the fact that they didn't take him out on a stretcher. He would have been taken out on a stretcher in any other state. He says it was because Michigan is inexperienced and unprofessional when it comes to holding big fights.

Damn That was very unprofessional.I felt like he should have not been moved until the EMT'S got there.

You really think it's legitimate to hit someone on the chin when they're on the ground? Get out of this forum if so, this is a boxing forum, for people who know something about the sport.

Abraham got what he diserved...

As long as it lasted it was a good fight..Dirrell fought very good & was clearly winning..Even thou the ref robbed Abraham of a knockdown(which was counted as a slip) at the end Abraham still needed a KO to win..I don't know why Abraham & his team are complaining, when it was extremely clear that he hit Dirrell with a very hard upper right on the jaw when Dirrell was down...The ref did the right thing...Now the Super Six Tournament got even more interesting!

What does Alex have to do with anything. I know them both personally, I would expect something like this from Alex because he is one of the most immature people I know, but Arthur is a class act. I like many others in this forum have been in the ring. It is hard to control yourself especially when you know you are in a whole. I talked to Arthur a few hours after the fight, he said he was caught up and he didnt hear the ref say anything. He was already swinging but didnt want to hit him hard while he was on a knee. But you cant compare this incident to Rjj's. Lol, the guy hit him 3 times while he was down

either you're lying or he's lying. in either case, stop it

Arthur clearly hit him while he was down. Saying he wasn't down is like saying Dirrell was not hurt. I was scared for Dirrell when he was babbling in the ring immediately after the fight. When something this blatant happens, there should be a stiff penalty or fine. Dirrell's career could have been ended by that one shot. Everyone (including Dirrell) is lucky there was no permanent damage....

That is the biggest bull**** I have ever heard. Shaw shouldn't have said that

We got a wise guy on our hands.

My first thought was Roy Jones, Jr. - Montell Griffin, you just don't DO THAT!
I was kinda shocked about the remarks from AA about the acting but it was a delayed reaction. I didn't think he was hurt until he fell over. And where the hell was that referee? He made some serious mistakes in that fight.

You cant compare it to Roy Jones Jr. or Lennox Lewis (Who didnt get DQ'd) because they both threw multiple punches. Arthur just threw one, realized what happened and stopped.
