    Postfight after his SD win, Froch complained that Dirrell took a knee whenever things got rough. After watching the Abraham-Dirrell fight, and also the Dirrell-Hanshaw fight, I realised that Dirrell takes a knee every time he's about to get hit flush with a power shot. Why on earth is Dirrell allowed to take a knee every five minutes in every damn fight he is in?

    That may very well be true, but he clearly slipped against Abraham, and that wasn't the first time he slipped in that corner.

    Why the **** did Froch get that bull**** decision over Dirrell?! That's what I'd like to know.

    Well, your allowed to take a knee whenever you want, its not against the rules....

    However, you cant hit a man when hes on a knee, and going on a knee should be counted as a knock down....

    These days, rules dont mean anything... And its disgusting to be honest :patsch

    You can take a knee whenever you want? Fair enough, if you're happy to take a point deduction for it.

    He beat him. Dirrell was a awful in the Froch fight - did Froch make him look awful or was it nerves?

    But no way Dirrell was winning the title that night - he seemed scared of Froch but he did not fear AA.

    I think he does "slip" under pressure.

    :lol::lol: Post your ****ing scorecard then. Dirrell was scared of Froch? Is that why he had him hurt and backing away like a he'd just been shot in the 10th?

    Dirrell took a knee because Froch pulled him down with the back of his glove 3 times idiot.

    Froch at one point in the fight tried to put hm in a rear naked choke. :lol:

    dirrel does go down on his knees when things get tough but abraham loaded up on a shot while dirrell was there, he should have complained to the ref or something.

    Your the one who said froch dosent have "real power"

    Now there is a thread saying that somone from Dirrells camp said froch punches harder than abraham....... If thats true, you are a joker :lol:

    You are a froch hater, and a dirrell dickrider.....

    Id like to talk real boxing with you, but you are extremly biased :-(

    He wasn't as bad in the Abraham fight with all of his dirty tactics. Surely to **** though everyone who watched the Froch fight noticed he was turning his back, ducking below the waist and falling over when he was engaged to a ridiculous extent? It's funny to hear people complain about Froch's rabbit punching, what the **** else was he supposed to hit? The only part of his body that Dirrell presented was his back and the back of his head.

    Im a joker. The guy that tried to explain to your dumb ***** ass that Dirrell was going to school this joke, and im the joker. :lol:

    Either Abrahams power is overrated, or Dirrells talking ****. Froch aint got **** for power and is a brutal KO waiting to happen.

    Given that im almost always right on this forum, call me a liar.
    You could never talk boxing with me son, you'd have to be on my level first *****
