Carl Froch was right about Dirrell...

Froch does appear to be a tough customer who will fight like a warrior.

However he is nowhere near world class and his arrogance is beyond shocking.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl yeah it was only about the last 30 seconds - I mean who saw it coming? Taylor must be one unlucky fighter.

 

Bending below the waist line is illegal in boxing

 

Hatton did that because be was fed up of Tszyu doing it. Simple as. Blinkers off please

 

Once again. Ducking below the waist is illegal. Both fighters were fouling. I can admit that Froch was fouling. Can you take your head out of Dirrells arse for long enough to admit that he doesn't always fight a squeaky clean bout?

 

The sad thing is when Froch is exposed for the piece of **** boxer that he is all you Froch dick-riderz are gonna have jump to the next euro-hype!!

Froch did not deserve the win versus Dirrell and when asked not 1 Froch supporter can say why Froch deserved to win!!!

Dirrell Hurt Froch
Dirrell made Froch miss all night
Dirrell was never hurt by Froch
Dirrell hit Froch more than Froch hit him
Dirrell never resorted to dirty tatics(rabbit punching)
Dirrell brought the fight to Froch in the later rounds!

You Froch supporters should come up with a list to prove why Froch deserved the win or STFU!!!!

 

And yet Lawrence 'Corruption' Cole said nothing.

 

Bottom line Dirrell lost rounds because he did not engage - if you do not fight, you just run, clinch and duck below the waist then you are not winning rounds.

It is not enough to spoil the fight and then try to steal rounds by potshotting if you back it up with zero agression and forward movement.

Sorry you can't see that. It wasn't the Olympics and I think even Dirrell knew he got it wrong which is why he performed so much better against AA.

 

Big left can you please explain why Carl Froch deserved the win!

Because if you are talking about Froch being the aggressor then you have to understand the meaning of ineffective aggresion!

Froch came forward to no success! What's the point of coming forward when you are not connecting clean punches and your opponent is connecting punches on you?!?!

 

Ricky Hatton was the aggressor vs Mayweather but still was outboxed and Hurt during the fight!

This is the same thing that happend to Froch!

Not sure how you can logically excuse Dirrell's tactics with 'it's up to the referee to determine that' when you are mainly claiming about things that the referee mainly didn't determine to be illegal.

Can't have it both ways?

 

Because in a lot of rounds, Froch's ineffective aggression was apparantly deemed by the judges to be slightly preferable to Dirrell's ineffective non-aggression. And under the current judging guidelines, where judges are directed to find a winner in a round even if both fighters have not done anything of much worth, that was enough to win this fight.

A lot of people, judging by their comments, apparantly don't score fights by the round, and don't score body shots or work in the clinches at all. Anyone who does will appreciate that this was a fight that could legitimately be scored over quite a wide range (anything from 7-5 Froch to 8-4 Dirrell is prefectly justifiable in my opinion).

 

Says who? You will not find that rule anywhere on, say, the NSAC or CSAC lists of fouls. Regardless of what boxrec or wikipedia says, the actual commissions make the rules, and that rule is by no means universal. In fact, the best I've ever found is a rule making CROUCHING below the waist illegal. Which is a different thing altogether.

 

Here's a list of fouls from the Michigan Unarmed Combat Commission. Show me the one you are referencing please.
