Oh I know that. LArgely because Dirrell won the fight in most peoples eyes and nearly KO'd Froch. Just you Froch fans hold it for Froch as if he accomplished something and as if the reason why Dirrell lost was because he didnt fight hard enough when infact he didnt win because it was in Notthingham. Its insulting, but he's gonna get sparked out soon. :good
Nearly KO'd Froch? sorry I must have missed that bit. Dirrell lost the fight because he didn't let his hands go and allowed Froch to take him completely out of his rhythm.
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Phta5fkCDTw&feature=related[/ame] Wow im actually starting believe that the majority who say Froch won havent watched this fight. Btw, you dont win a fight by taking a fighter out of his rhthym. You win by landing punches. Which Froch didnt do. :good
2 things i would like to say: 1st: Dirrell whipped froch's ass easy. if it weren't for froch's title, i would've given him the win, but dirrell didn't deserve to be a champion for running from someone who he was winning every exchange against. 2nd: Michigan Warrior has earned my respect. he told plenty of ass whipes that Dirrell would school abraham and apparently none of them have the nuts to admit he was right and they were wrong. yet they call MichiganW a *****?
If Dirrell has the career Froch has had so far he can retire happy. He got a shot at a title (which he did not yet deserve) during the Super 6 and he embarassed himself. He just got his first big win and he is going to fight for another title and to be honest I dont give him more than a 50% chance of advancing. If he loses to Ward and Froch do you think Bute will fight him? It could be years before Dirrell challanges for a title again if he loses to Ward.
Oh for sure. I wouldnt doubt if he's ducked for the rest of his career. who wants to fight someone that athletic who isnt a draw? Although froch after he is KO'd twice might not have a choice but to rematch Dirrell, and Dirrell will finish his career, but by then Froch will be recognized as the bum he is.
i can't beleive these guys are bitching about someone ducking their opponent's punches. what's next. i actually respect froch for willing to fight anyone, but his nuthuggers are horibbly annoying.
If Froch ended his career now he'd been remembered as a guy who fought one good fight against Pascal and otherwise got lucky in barely beating a past it Jermain Taylor and winning a split decision he deserved to lose against a prospect who is nowhere near peaking. If Dirrell was happy with that career I'd be shocked and surprised, because it's likely to be forgotten in another few years.
If Froch gets KO'ed twice and goes out of the Super 6 I think a re-match would be Dirrell best option (if he goes out too). But it wont be a championship fight - it will be for the wooden spoon of the super 6. I would love a Froch Dirrell re-match but it needs to be in the semis or final of the super 6 for it to really mean something. Dirrell is a talent but his career seems in the balance - lose to ward and it could take years to recover. Froch has already had his moment in the spotlight and really it is not gonna get much better for him than the super 6.
sorry but that is total rubbish - how was froch lucky against taylor? and the fact that you think froch deserved to lose against dirrell doesn't make it so. lets see dirrell win a title - he seems to have the talent but his career is in danger of stalling if he loses to ward. super 6 give him a quick 2nd shot at a title but it may be a mixed bless for dirrell.
Because Taylor had dominated him for the first 8-9 rounds before he inevitably tired. What was so impressive about Froch beating up on a punching bag in the last few rounds? Taylor holds on for another 30 seconds and Froch is beaten.
This is true though you have to admire Frochs heart and tenancity and it was 13 seconds if i remember correctly
