I was rooting for Froch, so were my friends I watched it with.... I stated several times to them during that fight that I thought Dirrell fought like a ***** and that I want him to get KTFO.. BUT.... It doesn't matter, Dirrell fought the way he had to fight to WIN... which he did.. This is boxing and you need to land Punches , Froch Barely landed any flush punches at all... Dirrell moved around and had Froch off balance the entire fight,,, Dirrell countered Froch and kept him at bay with a good jab Dirrell even Hurt Froch bad and probably almost had him on the canvas. Dirrell won that fight, Period... So everyone who continues to argue for Froch are just losing credibility ,,, I wanted Froch to win but ****... come on , admit it already.
Agree, I thought Dirrell wouldn't be ready for the super six but he put on a great performance and landed some great punches. I hope to see him do well in the tournament and I hope Kessler punches Frochs head clean off.
Hi I agree that Dirrell won and thought, as in the Taylor fight, that Froch was exposed for being "one dimensional", slow and plodding. I thought Dirrell looked a class act and a class above Froch. However, I can see why the judges voted against him. He constantly whinged and fell to the floor in dramatic fashion. If he simply boxed without the drama, I'm sure the judges would have voted differently. Styles make fights and I'm sure Froch would perform much better against Abraham and possibly Kessler.Put him in against someone who's slick and fast, with good stamina and a good chin and he's destined to lose. Looking forward to Dirrell v Abraham !! :good
