    I agree.... cant focus on the fact that its a great tourny, AA scored a sizzling KO, we got some good matchups, ect, ect....

    Now its 'its TAINTED' because they think dirrell got robbed.

    Just re-watched the last 5 rounds of the fight and I had Dirrell winning 4 of them with the 10th round even do to the point deduction. I don't see how anyone can score rounds for Froch when he simply isn't landing. He may have been the aggressor but what good is when your opponent is constantly making you miss and your reduced to throwing pity-pat shots in the clinches; (many of which were rabbit punches).

    If hopkins would have hit Calzaghe half as much as Dirrell hit Froch then I would have gave Hopkins the decision but I didn't. Calzaghe and hopkins weren't landing very much so I gave it to calzaghe. Hopkins didn't hit him as much as Dirrell hit froch so stop with that BS arguement.

    That was his only hard punch of the fight and you call me delusional. Go watch the fight again and tell me another punch he landed. People are so stupid to throw one thing out and act like he was hitting him. That was his only good shot of the fight and THAT IS A FACT. Go watch it again and look for who's head is getting snapped back.

    Dirrell got 18 fights and practically unknown. Yup Dirrell have a lot of huggers alright. And the numerous polls have dirrell winning by 75 percent shows that there are more huggers for dirrell than froch huh.

    there is something called affective aggression, froch didn't display this. he was countered often. yes direll should of just kept his mouth shut and fought and neglected the rough house tactics but at the same time, froch landed nothing. he was made to look like a fool.

    It's as racist and classless as your assumption that the "Euro" judges scored it for Froch because England is part of Europe. He's assuming the Mexican judge would score it for the American fighter because they are from North America. You're both ignorant.

    Honesty is what i like,not"it was a massive robbery,or its "Sven Froch Otkke","Germany learnt bent boxing from Britain".Dirrell is suddenly getting massive hype for losing although perhaps he should of got the decision but who gives a **** anyway he`s still in the tournament.

    The beauty of the structure of this tournament is that it isn't single elimination and that the losers still have an opportunity to advance to the next round.

    I strongly disagree with Dirrell's decision defeat however the controversial verdict in no way translates to the entire tourney being tainted.

    The fact that Dirrell is given an immediate opportunity against AA is a testament to how untainted this round robin style tourney really is.

    Effective Aggression, Clean Punching, and Ring Generalship.
    Froch split the first 2 with Dirrel but dominated the third. Hence a SD.

    I had the final score of 113/111/
    I had no less than 7 rounds where Dirrel ran. The ONLY person to blame is Dirrel and his corner. He shouldn't have ran. He did ALLOT better when he wasn't. Hell I think he probably could have KO'd Froch if he hadn't. Of course less he ran out of gas.

    And as far as him fighting AA.
    Well AA doesn't chase. So Dirrel will have to change HIS style.
