    Froch made Mayorga look like Hopkins tonight .Any blind could have saw who won that fight .Really what did Froch do to even look like a winner ..His foot work was busch league ! He was getting tagged at will by Dirrell with streight punches ..Sad man to start off rd 1 with a horrible decision like this ..

    I guess I should never watch boxing again. To me, Froch won. He made Dirrell run away from him for the majority of the bout. He made Dirrell clinch whenever he got close. Dirrell also fell over a few times with very little provocation, and they weren't all slips or pushes. If you go to ground to avoid further punishment, should the referee not give you a count?

    Usually agree with you fellow sur cali but Dirrell hurt him twice and he got robbed big time,and i usually like the guys who force the fight but Froch was uneffective and was only hitting air. Horrible Decision!!

    Froch, courtesy of a dubious points deduction.​

    You guys that are saying that Froch won, barring the trolls, are pointing at what Dirrell did or did not do but most of you are not saying what Froch did to win the fight.

    I thought that Dirrell won the fight, it wasnt a robbery level dec but Dirrell clearly won the fight.

    The reason that I think it wasnt a robbery was there were a couple of rounds in which nothing happened that could have gone either way.

    A couple of more fights like that and nothing will be solved by this thing.
