iamasadlittleboy Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Dustin Dirks v Sandro Siproshvili Dirks cruised the first 4 rounds but in round 5 Siproshvili let loose and appeared to hurt Dirks...though may well have punched himself out.

WelshDevilRob Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Nice one, Scott. Finally my August £10 to Boxnation means something. Though as Paul Daniels used to say "Not alot". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamasadlittleboy Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Another major cut helps to end a bout. What are they feeding these young Germans to see them opening guys up like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the sort of thing they should have on on a regular basis to help fill up the schedule when they have nothing live to show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WelshDevilRob Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Round 9 to Stieglitz. Will Abraham come on strong now like in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamasadlittleboy Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Didn't like the scoring and certainly didn't like way Abraham fought round 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skav Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Hated the commentary, it was too one sided for Abraham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meathead Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 For me this backs up my thoughts on both. Abraham isn't good enough at this weight and Stieglitz was nothing more than a paper champion. Abraham was a beast at 160lbs. Why he continues with this 168lbs rubbish beyond me. He would be competitive AND still have big money fights at 160.

brooklynbrawler Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Aye he was trying to move back down, but saw what he thought was an easy opportunity to become a two-weight champion against Stieglitz. It was anything but though, I thought there was maybe a round or two max in it either way (didn't bother scoring it, but it was close for most of the fight), so the scorecards flattered him. He's far too easy to hit and he simply doesn't have the power at 168 lbs (or it may simply be that he doesn't have the power against decent opposition). Abraham's reign at 168lbs will be brief if he opts to face anyone half decent. If I was George Groves, I would take that fight in a heartbeat, though at this stage, I wouldn't say with any degree of certainty that he would win it, after a couple of recent struggles. Groves could certainly outbox him though, and imo, far more easily than he would have Stieglitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
