    It was a terrible fight and neither deserved it, but why become a fighter if you dont want to fight. It would be bad for boxing if you win titles by running away and diving on the floor when someone tries to hit you.

    Does Dirrell have talent? yes, maybe he should have used it more and he probably would have won the fight outright and no one could dispute it.

    I wouldn't say that. I check the english lounge yesterday and majority of the brits thought Dirrell got robbed. I think is just Froch supports that refuse to admit that he got a gift.

    He's worse than Junior Witter and John Ruiz combined.

    The irony is that he has the skills to be a brilliant fighter but lacks the heart.

    He lost the fight by running. And I mean literally RUNNING.

    INCORRECT. There was a majority who thought Dirrell won. That's not the same as most thinking it was a robbery. Big difference

    Dirrell did everything right as i explained from my opening post. Dirrell was going for the knock out. A ko was the only way he could have won last night. 115-112 by two judges.. r they kidding? Froch did nothing but getting tag. Dirrell could knock Froch down and still lost.

    I defenetly thought dirrell won the fight,

    but the solid evidence of that he won the fight is the Sky Bet, Bet365 and most of bookies who have they own experts, on Live betting going in to round 12 Froch was 10/2 to win the fight while Dirrell was 1/5 to win it.

    So i would defenetly say Dirrell won the fight

    What we're you watching Dirrell going for the knock out are you serious. I had Dirrell winning 114-113 but can understand why he didn't get the decision, his negativety lost him that fight all he had to was be a tiny bit more positive in his approach and he would have won as clearly as you seem to think he did but the reality is he didn't and due to that this fight had a disputed decision at the end.

    Froch was reduced to fight dirty just to keep himself in the fight, the young prospect beat him.
