    I hope he's interested enough and has the time to see the whole fight again.

    It was cringeworthy.

    What on earth were the judges watching?

    You'd got Carl's wife shouting "he's fighting like a fa*got!"

    Ha!

    Then his brother saying "he always fights like that"

    I f*cking hate casual know nothing's.

    They make me sick.

    It's not about two guys stood on the spot, whacking the sh*t out of each other.

    It's a game of chess.

    Balance, timing, feinting, setting traps, hitting and not getting hit back.

    It's an art and a science, the sweet science.

    These clowns shouldn't be allowed within ten miles of the arena.

    It literally wasn't even close.

    If you scored it 9-3, you'd be being generous to Carl.

    Absolutely, let these philistine casuals be consigned to watching Omar Figueroa reruns for eternity in hell.

    I've already watched it twice and scored it for Froch both times. And thanks to Dirrell holding onto Froch like a treasure chest in a hurricane and running, nay, sprinting, away from Froch it would be 45 mins of my life I'd never get back- that to me, is not classed as effective ring generalship.

    And no, not from the Nottingham times because one was a Yank :hi:

    You on the other hand only see it as a robbery because you don't like Froch.

    Put your bias aside and you will see no robbery either.

    While I'll put mine aside and say it could be scored for Dirrell, if you like stinking the joint out and trying to pinch every round, I did see it for Froch.

    Definition of a close fight that could go either way.

    Would you also say the Lara- Canelo fight last year was a robbery because that was very similar and I also scored that for Canelo.

    What a joke.

    Get yourself to the opticians ASAP.

    Froch landed about 8-9 clean shots the whole fight.

    He literally didn't win any of the first 7 rounds. He was missing wildly and getting countered.

    Seriously, it was embarrassing.

    Was he sprinting away in 2:30, here. Have the courage to watch it, "Super Hans". Be brave. Steel yourself. Get up the nerve to watch Froch get all wobbly and disoriented as Dirrell pounds away at him.

    I watched that fight prob a little biased in Carls favour, i was prob listening along with the biased british commentators and i still scored the fight in Dirrells favour.

    He didnt do himself any favours in the later rounds at all considering he was fighting in another mans home town but unless Froch could knock him down a couple of times Dirrell had already got plenty of rounds in the bag to win it.

    I think i had it 7 rounds to 5 in Dirrells favour and felt i was very generous with 1 of Froch,s rounds. Could of been 8 rounds to 4.

    There is no bias.

    We must have watched different fights.

    It's easy to say you don't want to watch it again. But it was a long time ago, and you may have remembered it differently.

    Carl went foward and got countered.

    He landed hardly ANYTHING.

    Andre's reflexes embarrassed him many times.

    Seriously, go and watch it.

    It's only 36 mins of your life.

    There's no point in taking this any further until you do.

    OH MY GOD! A 3 minute video that is clearly bias as hell put together by Andre Direll's inbred sister has change my mind. What was I thinking scoring it for Froch when I watched the fight in full twice :patsch

    I felt similar to yourself, until I watched it again an hour ago.

    Check it out if you have the time.
