As a Brit Froch fan I thought Dirrell fought an anti-boxing fight against Froch. He ran held and didn't win any 'man' points that night. I have to admit that I thought he had the better of the fight though and could have taken Froch's title the night, but I am a firm believer that you have to properly beat a champion to get their title and Dirrell did not do that. I will be very interested in his comeback because he has the skills to be the best around, just needs more heart.

David Haye was on his knees when monte barret (a heavyweight whom outweighed him by 35-40lb) hit him with all his force. haye didn't act like a ***** ass ***** and fake brain damage.
You're right, and that is really the finals fight I expected to see. I have him beating Ward. Glad to see him back and I can't wait to see how he does in his come back.:good
He is a talented fighter. That whole Shaw Hi ordeal is suspicious. But, I would like to see him back in the mix.
It would have been awesome to see Ward-Dirrell and Kessler-Abraham at some point in the tourney. Great matchups.
You know boxing of what?!? Exposed by Froch?!? Froch was very lucky the judges were on his side cause he knows he lost that fight. If I know one guy that have been exposed in the late rounds of this fight, it's Froch and it was against a greeny Dirrell. Sorry, but Dirrell is more than a good american SMW and a regional champ. He is world class material and will end up beeing a world champ sooner or later.
