    Hmm. :think

    He did not make "easy work" of him - the fight itself was close.

    I am able to believe that Dirrell's shots didn't hurt him, though.

    Froch is a bloody warrior but he mouths off like a damn jackass sometimes. That fight was very close and even the Brit broadcast I was watching scored it for Dirrell.

    Definitely not an easy night at all.

    Dirrells biggest flaws are in the strength compartment - he seems to have weak punching power and kind of small heart for a warrior.

    Close fight, terrible fight. Not to mention, Dirrell buzzed Froch in the 10th round? I'm thinking 10....it was round 9, 10, 11...one of those rounds, but anyway, if he means easy work as in he didn't get hit much, then yes, very easy work, but it was a close fight. Could have gone either way.

    I actually thought Dirrell edged it the first time i saw it. And i also remember Froch doing the stanky leg as well.

    I thought Froch beat Dirrell pretty clearly.

    Sorry flopping on the floor everytime your opponent gets close, sticking your tongue out and running around the ring doesnt win fights.

    It was an ugly fight and a points fight IMO. Froch was touching him all night, was ALWAYS the aggressor and Dirrell lost a point for holding. That highlight shows none of that.

    Thanks for posting that.
    That's how I saw it.

    Froch dirty and should have had pts deducted or even DQed if held somwhere else. (Rabbitt punches can be lethal, as Benn nearly proved.)

    And Froch hardly landing a clean shot, but Dirrell sure did.
    AD won by several rds.

    And boxrec also showed how corrupt they are for their stats on punches landed--unless their stat man for Froch had Tourretts.

    Froch is still hurt he got schooled by a prospect and he knows he was lucky to get a gift.



    Dirrell visibly wobbled him in the 10th.

    Froch is right. Dirrell has no heart. That's why he dropped out of the Super 6.

    he received the decision because what you don't see in that 3 minute highlight is Dirrell running, and getting hit. Watch the fight he did get hit........

    Now he(as in Dirrell) landed the cleaner more effective punches, and more than likely out landed Froch, nevertheless Brits do enjoy a good toe to toe, which froch made an honest effort in giving, and Andre did not.

    I really like Dirrell he is great fun to watch, but you can't ****ing dance for 9 or 10 rounds in the other mans home and expect a win.
