    Why can't he be gracious in defeat? Why does Dirrell have to be such a sore loser?

    Andre lost the Froch fight because he fought an amateur fight inside of a professional ring! This is a guy who has come up with every excuse in the book!

    Froch to Jim Grey after fight: "I deserved a unanimous decision, but of course there was a Mexican judge"

    don't even mention sportsmanship here, because Froch is the worst in the business in that department. Dirrell won the fight, and he deserves to have his issues with the way it was scored........and yeah welcome to 2010 t/s

    andre was robbed in that fight, who the hell would be gracious in that type of fight.froch was aloud to hold and hit, hit behind the head and every other dirty tactic in that fight.he after the bell and everything.

    that was a dirty ass fight with home town **** at its highest level.both the andre's,berto,bradley i know each other from the am days.all those guys will be champs soon or later.

    direll won that fight, in the states froch would have got dq before the 10th.

    I scored it 116-112 for Dirrell, he landed the cleaner, harder shots in that fight. Hurt Froch in rounds 10 and 11, won the Championship round. Froch was made to look slow by Dirrell's brilliant defence and ability to avoid punches. They took a point from him for holding (he did a bit) but Froch slammed him down and rabbit punched and didn't get warned. Then Froch complained in the post-fight interview that Dirrell "didn't want to have a fight and leaned right back". Does Froch think Sugar Ray Robinson let people just hit him in the face?

    Christ... If it wasn't for the UK NATIONALISTS the entire boxing world would cease to remember Andre Dirrell or Andre Ward during their stretches of innactivity. WHAT IS WITH THE OBSESSION?.. FFS...

    Nobody was robbed. It was a close fight. The only reaason why people think it was a robbery because Dirrell started coming on at the end and he stunned Froch a couple of times, but If you look back at the first 6 rounds are very close. Rounds 7 and 8 I think were pretty clear Froch rounds, and rounds 9,10,11,12 Dirrell won at least haff of these. It was a close fight, I scored it for Dirrell, but it was close.

    It was a close fight and Dirrell did not do enough to win.

    i think direll won the 1st 6 easily until froch ruff him up late, then it was close.and not even close he was just making the fight fight dirty.no way should direll be ashamed and no way froch should be proud i think.

    Biased comment at best. I could name 5 fights from 2009 that were way worse then this.
    So you condone Direll bending to Froch's waist hence the rabbit punching, clinching and grabbing when he did not have too, turning his head every opportunity and falling to his knees every time Froch wanted to engage? GTFOH man, that was probably the worst Championship fight I have EVER witnessed and Froch did not do much better, I am not saying he did, but to even think Direll was the cleaner, or the more tactical is absurd at the least.
    I scored the fight 114-113 Froch, but had it a draw the 2nd time.
    In my opinion Direll did not win that fight. It WAS as close a fight as can be.

    You don't have to worry about king arthur getting a BS decision because
    he's going to knock dirrell out.
