Dirrell Vs Abraham

Arthur Abraham find himself in the desirable position of leading the set of super middleweights in the Super Six tournament by good quality of his 12th round knockout of Jermain Taylor. Abraham’s win has had the effect of turning him from the boxer who least was predict to succeed the Super Six competion one that is now being preferential by more than a few boxing fans who are seeing him with new eyes.

However, I detestation to be the one to rain on Abraham’s procession just at the moment of his splendor but his time in the sun is about to finish when he steps foot in the ring next to Andre Dirrell on January 23, 2010, in a clash that will take place at a still to be resolute location in the United States.

Dirrell lost his first clash of the Super Six competition by questionable situation in a clash next to World Boxing committee super middleweight champion Carl Froch on October 17th. Although Dirrell fight his heart out and appear to succeed the fight by a fairly persuasive decision.

I’m not going to strike this into the ground by rehash this tender loss for Dirrell, but unnecessary to say, Dirrell’s loss left a lot of question about that clash. Sorry to say, there’s no rematches in the Super Six competition, so this clash can’t be done over again unless by possibility Froch and Dirrell meet later on in the competition. Dirrell will be doing his piece in creation that happen by defeat Abraham next year in January.

Abraham is being agreed way too much recognition for his knockout succeed over Taylor. It’s a huge win, but come on let’s be truthful here, Taylor’s chin was almost certainly compromised well before the Super Six competition started and he may have been improved off not participate at all.

I can’t provide Abraham any praise for that win. If this was a knockout succeed over a celebrity like Andre Ward, Dirrell or Mikkel Kessler, then I’d be prepared to crown Abraham as the ruler of the Super Six, but that’s not what happen. What I saw was a sloppy boxer throw wild shots and not being very vigorous in his clash against Taylor.

When Abraham did ultimately hurt Taylor in the 9th, he tag him with a right elbow to the head. The referee, I believe, didn’t observe the elbow from Abraham and didn’t end the act to save Taylor from taking unnecessary blows to the head. Whether Abraham injure Taylor or not, his hand pace was as sluggish as molasses and his work rate was just as unfortunate it’s been in the precedent year.
