    Ill admit he ran at times but however way you look at it he landed the cleaner punches at Hurt Froch at least once maybe twice. He easily won this fight and this is not only Robbery of the Year its Robbery of the DECADE!

    First off, what difference does it make how much money Hatton makes over Dirrell? You're not gonna see any of that cash so why is that an issue? Does he pay your bills? If so, I can understand.

    Secondly, how would you know that?

    Dirrell's got more talent in his sleep after a night of drinking than Hatton & Froch have in they're whole body.

    none of the judges at Froch V Dirrell were British though were they so its kind of a mute point.

    we'll see how much talent he has, he may grow some balls and go along way...but.....Audley Harrison has talent and 0 balls and look where that got him.

    Roy lost but you can never said he a little ***** who only takes fights he lost. He gain more respect from me for taking that fight which I new would be a hard fight.

    Dirrell is a runner but landed more flush shot and also hurt froch more having him daze in the later rounds. But if you score on volume and moving forward without landing then Froch is a clear winner in my view.

    What Hatton does and what Dirrell did is completely different.

    Hatton ties the arms up off the opponent and fights while clinching.

    Dirrell just lunged forward and wrapped both of his arms around the back of Froch...pushing him right back.

    Hattons tactics were dubious but not really illegal.....Nothing like Dirrells holding

    Oh and according to the knowledgable ESB folk....

    Collazo-Berto was a much bigger robbery than Froch-Dirrell

    Harrison was always garbage to me. You can't compare him to Dirrell. Dirrell stood his ground when he chose to. Boxing isn't about showing balls if you don't have to. Dirrell has can utilize the science of the game while Froch is just a one trick pony who's style might be catchy to some fans but to people that really know Boxing can obviously see he isn't that good.
