    I could probably compile a highlight of pictures from the De La Hoya-Pacquiao fight where De la Hoya lands in order to make a case that the stoppage was premature.

    Stills do not make a fight.

    No you haven't. A statement like "Froch hit air all night" is never meant literally, it means that the connect percentage of a fighter was incredibly low and he looked like a fool trying to land punches most of the time. You can make a picture serious like that with Arreola's 10 - 20 power shots he landed on Vitali and try to make the point that he was winning the fight and it would be as credible as your "point" you are trying to make.

    Fatc is, Dirrell landed more and cleaner. That should be the most important factor in scoring a fight. Manly behaviour isn't part of the boxing scoring system, lack thereof isn't a disadvantage according to boxing rules, as long as a "running" fighter lands punches.

    Great idea! Find all the pictures you have of Froch landing on Dirrell, because that means he landed all his punches thrown right? Or even better you can also search for all the pictures showing Dirrell missing Froch, so we can prove Froch impenetrable defense and evasive moves.

    Question: Which has more chance of hitting its target? A Carl Froch punch or a North Korean missile? Vote and discuss.

    To my UK friends: which figure is higher? The average number of punches Froch lands on his opponent per fight or Monty Panesar's batting average? Vote and discuss.

    I couldn't resist:yep
