And he exposed himself badly. Before he fought Dirrell, he said he wants to fight Abraham to be in his backyard instead in germany. Now after the Dirrell fight, Froch promoter says he wants Froch vs Kessler stage 2 to be in britian. I bet ya Froch told his promoter to try and make that happen. Is just shows that Froch wants to fight the rest of the way in this tournament in his backyard. He knows that if he stays on his feet he'll get a decision no matter if he clearly lost.
You are denying it . . .and yet the other fighters you are mentioning are Americans. Hagler? Floyd? What's that got to do with Froch being antagonised against Dirrel? Froch's ability sucks balls . . . maybe? But wait till he loses then you can rejoice . . . meanwhile accept the fact that he just beat Dirrel. :deal
Actually...Pascal is not that good of a fighter...OVERRATED!!! Got Outboxed buy an Englishman...When was the last time anyone said that!!! Froch's win over Taylor was Legitimate. A Great fight with a great ending. But Dirrell won that fight...POINT BLANK!!! And for the Record...No-one Hates (Nor Hating) Froch. A large amount of fans, Posters...etc Simply thought the scoring was "BOGUS!!!"
Longing to test himself against the very best in what many consider to have been the halcyon era for his weight class? Makes my blood boil, so it does. I prefer my boxers to hide behind their title, fighting bums and cans.
yep, sure........... I would bet anything if Abraham didn't KO Taylor u wouldn't be saying that.... this forum would be fuller with hate threads towards Abraham, the same way as with Froch, I have no doubt about it!
Froch does 'bring it' to the ring, he is not the most skilled fighter but is very hard. Another point tho, looking at that fight , I would say Calzaghe would beat both Froch and Dirrell (fast but the way he goes to the ropes would be heaven for Calzaghe) with ease.
After 28 fights Frochs record will have Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Kessler, Abraham on it with there being a very strong possibility both the MK and AA fight both being in there backyards. Theres also a strong possibility Froch will be involved in 2 more FOTY candidates next year because he loves to stand there and trade. Bottom line is if there were more fighters with nuts the size of Frochs willing to fight the best at the drop of a hat everyone would be happier and the sport would be in a better place right now. As for people calling the result on saturday a robbery!!! Lewis vs Holyfield 1 was a robbery, Sven Ottke vs Robin Reid was a robbery, Froch vs Dirrell certainly wasnt it was very very close much like Hatton vs Collazo or Calzaghe vs Hopkins two fights which easily could of gone either way or even been scored level but in no way robberies.
As much as I can't stand Froch...At this point now.... I am willing to except the fact that the judges say Froch "beat" Dirrell. I dont agree with it...but there is nothing that can be done and bitching about it over and over will only make it worse.....I am just going to let it go and move on. ''I''ll smash him to smitherens.I''ll render him unconcious''. Trash talk like this I believe adds to the hate for Froch. Whats funny is Arthur Abraham actually did this in his fight with Taylor, where as Froch got outboxed. Props to Arthur, im really starting to like the guy.
Denying what :?:huh I mentioned Hagler cuz Froch said he would beat him:rofl I mentioned Floyd cuz someone brought up his arrogance and sh*t talking . What does Froch being antagonized by dirrell have anything to due with his lack of ability or the horrendous decision:huh He might have got the decision on the cards,but he loss this fight. I will rejoice when everyone else beats up Froch
I agree. Some Drama Queens are screaming robbery after a close fight. This is only ever possible because the loser happened to be American. If the American had won a close fight, then the american posters would just say "look, it was a close fight - could have gone either way, dry your eyes and grow up". Now, I would hope our American posters would stop the double standards and take a good long look at themselves.....
No i would still give abarham his props if the fight went the distance cuz I had him ahead 107-102 and the knockout was just the Icing to an impressive performance. I just dont think Froch is that good. Just Cuz i dont like a fighter doesnt mean i wont give a man his due. I never could stand Whittaker but i wont deny that hes one of the best fighters to ever lace up the gloves. Same with Floyd ive rooted against him in most of his fights but I recognize that hes a great fighter.
I disagree I think this was just as bad or worse than Lewis Holyfield I ihad that fight 117-111 Lewis I had this one 117-110 Dirrell.
:nono No not this american,when it comes to whats right I show no favorites or bias. If taylor would have gone the distance and somehow got the decision i would have Been posting on here about him getting a gift. In fact I think the commentators had that fight closer than it was
