How Many Of You Will Go On To Watch The "Super 6"?

Put me down, W.

 

Only if Paul Williams jumped in as the replacement for JT

 

I feel what you're saying, but I'm a junkie so I'll probably watch it.

 

I always say ill stop and never do ill watch but im not going into any off these fights where someone has to go to another country with an open mind agian. To me its already be tarnished with this robbery and if Taylor fights on well I cant watch death knowing its going to happen.

 

Ill watch it but if another ****in fight like that 1 tonight happens than **** that....that **** was stupid ridiculous...carl easily lost that fight and the only 1s had him winning were the 2 stuid judges and his fans (even some of his fans on esb are admitting it was a robbery so that shows u right there that the wrong guy won!)

 

Of course ill watch im a real boxing fan. The croch/dirrell fight was a horrible decision,but i will enjoy watching the no talented englishman getting his ass kicked by everyone else in this tournament.

 

This tourney suffered a sever credibility hit tonight, in both fights. Luckily in the first fight Abraham took over in the second half of the fight so a shot to the belt line that cost Taylor a point had no effect whether it went the distance or not. The referee was horrible in that fight too.

But the Froch Dirrell fight was disgusting. I agree that a point should have been taken from Dirrell for holding. I also think I point should have been taken away from Froch for his SECOND blatant hit after the bell, his holding and hitting, and rabbitt punches. But alas, he received nary a stern warning much less a point deduction.

And the scoring was ****ing atrocious. Almost as atrocious as the two fighters skill level in the fight. I had Dirrell winning 116-112, with the first round even. There were at least five rounds he didn't even land ONE single clean blow, much less several that would necessitate winning the round, yet to to judges, I guess those were the only rounds he lost.

Bad day for boxing, bad day for Showtime, and a deathblow to the credibilty of the Super 6 (why not 8) tournament.

OUCH.

Why would I pass up Kessler owning the tournament? Besides this is the best initiative in boxing - ever.

 

Of course.

It isn't the first robbery in boxing and it certainly isn't the last. You would be a bit of a clown to boycott the tournament because of one shitty decision, thats pretty childish and narrow minded. If anything the tourny is far more interesting after the first two fights because AA looks like he could just about decapitate anyone in the tournament and Dirrell looks like he will be a big handful for anyone.

 

I'll still watch it but I think tonight exposed a lot of the problems with such and akwardly orchestrated tournament.

For one we all got a hint tonight of what happens when you take a fight into another fighter's home country and let bad judges do the scoring. You get unfair and biased scorecards.

Plus, since the tournament is fashioned in such an odd way all these men have to fight multiple fights no matter how much of a beating they take along the way which is not a good sign for Taylor and anyone else who looks as shop worn and gets beaten up and KOed as badly as he did tonight.

 

:huh
Hell yea I'm going to keep watching. This tournament is the best thing to happen to boxing in a long time.

The judges got swayed by a completely biased crowd. It's not the first time it happens and it definitely won't be the last.

Froch won by robbery and is more than likely going to lose his next fight. Dirrell, the victim of the decision, still has a great chance in this tournament - especially because he's fighting the guy in first place in his next fight.:deal

 

Someone forgot to tell Dirrel to fight. This was not track & field event. Holding, running, falling down on canvas, complaining to referee, very sad.
