    Is this something you froch fans come up with to justify the decision ? Negative tactics ??He won the dam fight he put leather all over Carlls face there was no way Froch should have got that nod !!And I don't know what you saw but all I saw was Dirrell's speed surviving my ass !! The only saving in this fight ws Carl's record !
     
  2. "And they wonder why I'm fighting at home!!" ...reads as... I want a gift decision, and seeing as we give gift decisions in the US too, I want to be on the receiving end should it go the distance.

    To answery our first point, Im not a froch fan!

    Dirrell hardly threw any punches other than jabs and the odd flurry..other than that he ran whenever he could or clinched when froch threw a punch.

    Froch was **** but dirrell did not do enough, hence his grandfather telling him that in the 12th.

    So you must of missed the right hands he caught Froch with huh ??His father was telling him to go for the KO because he knew and its even on tape that he would not get the decision there ..Make sure your not seletcive with your facts ..

    Thats a terrible argument.

    Is boxing merely an excitement contest now?

    Dirrell schooled Froch. Yes it was negative, so what. He did not get what he deserved at all. He actually landed punches on Froch, who was unable to do anything against him. Froch was outboxed. End of story.

    What's shocking is how some people don't even consider that to be a robbery.

    Ward would stand a good chance of being robbed if the fight was anyway close at all. Fortunately for him, it won't be. Another one sided domination to leave no doubt.

    What's worse is that you called Froch a bum and people are now jumping back in time to Dirrell to have a pop at Carl and defend Ward not travelling.
    Getting pretty pathetic.
    Must be annoying being the best but still not being at the party that really matters.
    Again,where was the judge who scored 118-110 for Froch the other night from?

    In what sense?
    I don't remember any *******s admitting that their main rival is a far better fighter and probably wins a rematch.
    As I seem to have to keep repeating, within less than 5 mins of the scorecards being read, there were race baiting threads about how **** Froch was.
    I became a big fan of Ward BECAUSE of the way he comprehensively beat Froch.
    Do you see many *******s sticking up for JMM the way I do for Ward when he's accused of ducking Bute?
    Funny how just before the weekend,I was the only one defending Ward on a busy thread on the aforementioned subject,yet a Froch win brings out all these cry babies talking about Dirrell and how Ward shouldn't give Froch a rematch.
    Maybe he shouldn't,but he gave an interview to Europe's #1 boxing publication the other week about how he wants to be a PPV star and is a bit resentful that he isn't.
    Is it such a horrible idea for him to come and get a PPV fight against the only other guy in the division that matters and who he has already beat handily?

    The first one was one-sided, and that was still somehow scored close. You really can't be sure on these kind of things. Especially when you look at the scorecards this past weekend.
