    Indeed. The praise that Dirrell gets for setting the blueprint is completely undeserved. Anyone who has watched his fights and couldn't figure it out, is an idiot. Even his own fans knew how easy it would be to beat their man.

    Stick a jab in his face, tie him up, give him movement and push him back. Done.

    Realizm you should log off unless you change your attitude. Stop trolling, stop nuthugging, and stop ruining the forum. Nobody wants to see posts like yours.

    This shouldn't even be a question. Froch shut him out and that's that. Abraham won at least a couple of rounds against Dirrell and Dirrell looked like he was in danger not too long before the DQ. Froch didn't even look like he was in much harm throughout the whole fight with AA. AA tried to come on a few times but Froch didn't wilt like Dirrell did.

    Froch and Abraham could have fought 50 rounds and Froch wouldn't lose a round or get hurt. It's not certain whether Dirrell would have survived 12 rounds and a clear knockout loss was a distinct possibility. By that time, Dirrell was tired, hurt and getting hit.

    Is this a serious question?

    Froch, easily. He won almost every second of every round. He barely got hit, never went down, never got tired, never ran.

    Froch won every round. Why ask such a wankerish question?

    These threads provide good service on ESB. You can look at these threads and anyone who says, in this case, Dirrell won easier, is automatically an idiot. They're pretty much an idiot-filter. Realizm, Bald Head Slick and more, can be listed as idiots and you know not to bother with them.

    Both did a good job but Froch did better.

    I didn't see your previous post until after I made mine, but you're right. I have said for years that AA could be outboxed rather easily, and a good pressure fighter with some height and reach could work behind a stiff jab, drive AA into a corner, and leave him slumped there.

    Most of Abraham's hype came from beating Miranda. To date those are his best wins. I never got the hype.

    Froch built on what Dirrell did prior to the slip.

    So I'll go Dirrell, but only because he didn't need to employ a death harpie to kill his opponents will.

    Who beat AA more convincingly?

    How can the answer not be Froch? Come on man.

    Froch's win was more definative but you can attribute some of that to dirrell mentally ****ing AA that night. Had AA up in Aerobics class working on his feet no knowing what to fix. AA had nothing for a strategy against froch and just came in with some of the most disgraceful, bummish, pre-amatuer, ungrouned, poor excuses for flurries I've ever seen. He looked like the embarrassed, dumbfounded guy he was in the Dirrell fight. AA's team or poor strategist and AA is weak in the belly, has poor stanima and has fell too far away from boxing fundementals such as head movement.

    He should go watch some old Tyson or better yet, Nigel Benn Footage and see what headmovement can do for him if he has the heart to employ a more effective strategy that suits his attributes. He definately should get that stomach and stanima right from now on. I think his supposed patience is really him hiding his stanima deficiencies.

    Same way that a race car driver isn't the same after hitting the wall. Froch clearly had a more dominant performance, but AA wasn't the same guy. I take nothing away from Froch. I am a Froch fan. I just feel the first win is weighted heavier.

    Hell I don't think Froch is the same guy since the fight with Dirrell. He seems to be quite a bit more patient in there. He has always had the ability to box well. For some reason he seemed a bit zealous at the beginning of the tournament.

    Dirrell is a supreme physical talent, but needs some mental build up to be a proper "fighter". He was in a bit too deep in this tournament. He is elevating everyone's game. Possibly at the expense of his own.

    If it was so easy why did it take so many fights for someone to actually do it? Or are you saying his competition was nothing? Or are you saying Dirrell is nothing even though Dirrell gave Froch a tough time? What are you saying?

    Dude you are seriously anti-Pure Boxer. Even more so if they happen to be Americans. That is cool, but your posts are extremely predictable. I respect the Punchers game in boxing, but you are seriously transparent.
