Crotch's supposedly tough chin cracked a couple of times !!!!!! :yep:yep:yep Who'd knew: Dirrell put Crotch in to ***** street, then "lost" !!!!!!!! yikes:yikes And that would start the huge: "Boxing Fans" vs "Ballsucking Nuthuggers" bouts all over the net!!!!!!!!! :----( We live in some funky world :bush:bush:bush
Froch vs Driell was close enough. But here's the thing, neither guy is a top player in this tournament. Its either Abraham or Kessler. One close decision does not ruin the integrity of the tournament. Direll can get back in it by winning his next two fights.
I stopped scoring the match some where around round 6 when it was getting increasingly difficult to determine a clear winner of the round. Mostly because the fight was getting really messy (froch's roughhousing + Dirrell's constant holding). At the end of the match I felt Dirrell had done enough to win the fight however... ... the last rounds proved he should have pulled the trigger a bit earlier instead of playing the mouse in the ring. When you have that much handspeed you make them pay not run around the ring and hold. ... even the announcing team (showtime) was split on who they saw winning many rounds (it wasn't a highway robbery). ... in the first 10 rounds of the fight I don't think Froch was getting enough credit for landing when Dirrell also landed. Especially the announcing team was screaming when Dirrell landed something and only once I can remember did someone point out that Froch landed pretty well during that exchange. ... Dirrell is a live dog and has lots of potential in upcoming matchups as long as he gets in the right mindset and I hope this loss gets him focused to be more offensive because he has the skills to be. ... I'm hoping to see Froch move pretty far in the tournament (purely for entertainment value) but hope he doesn't win it. Looking forward to to see how well Dirrell and Froch both do against Abraham in rounds two and three respectively.
Dirrel won. And I think Dirrel can outbox AA and Froch will get KTFO by AA. Hope it will be rightfully so. But to put that the integrity of the Super 6 is no more there... Well if you say it out loud time and time again people might start to believe you but I do think not.
