    I also think that Abraham should be able to catch him later in the fight.

    However, if Dirrell has the stamina, I can certainly see him boxing AA for 12 boring rounds to a decision.

    I really think AA should be able to break him down though.

    AA tko 10

    I don't think he's got the stamina. he'll expend so much early, he'll run out of gas and won't be able to get out of the way as teh fight goes on...kinda like Corrales vs Freitas.

    Abraham has quite long arms, respective to his trunk.

    His arms are so long in fact that opponents are suckered into giving away low blows all the time, as they try to loop under his elbows.

    It's not like he is the 2nd coming of YB Campas, who made most thalidomides look rangy.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    Bitchin' and boxin' .. dont mix,.. I encourage all judges to dock illegal tactics,.. refusal to engage can, and should end you up disqualified, atleast you've never bitched out before,.. most old boxingtimer's are of the opinion you straight up quit against Saad in the James Toney dvd auction,.. but I reckon you gave it your all,.. and that's what you should expect from fighters, win or lose.

    How ironic. Remember when Fatty Shaw said they were going to pull the plug because Joe Cal was injured?

    Fucking dickhead.

    And now Dithering Dirrell is hurt. Aw Shucks.:flip::flip:

    If Dirrell stays in the outside and watch for the elbow inside. He should do good. He needs to be active to keep Abraham in that diffensive mode. I can see Dirrell win a UD.

    That's my prediction too.

    I see you're going to be fighting Byron Mitchell, good luck brotha. Whoop his ass Otis!

    I guess you prefer the boxers that block punches with their faces :warning:

    Dirrell will outbox Abraham all night. I give Abraham a puncher's chance and that's all.
