    It was cool at the time :conf

    When Ike puts on panties & fishnets to pose for photos with a hooker we can have a conversation about embarassment

    You think the fanfare swayed your judgement watching it live? I scored the fight a draw. Neither man really found a grain in edge, maybe Dirrell has the better argument, though.

    I'm gonna say this despite my previous protests, and know its a quote: Judges HATE bitches.

    It makes the job agonizing when a dude shows up to run and spoil.

    Dirrell probably did beat Froch, but he fought like the proverbial *****. Very rarely is that rewarded.

    Hopkins-Calzaghe is another example. Close fight(I had Calzaghe), but after Hopkins started pulling his late round theatrics, I knew the judges would have Joe sweeping the late rounds, which would likely do the trick.

    Dirrell/Hopkins outboxed their man both edged it, but yes they ran and spoiled, morally they lost their man cards

    Think Dirrell has a better argument than Hopkins.

    BHop dogged it late. Wheels completely came off the wagon. Had JC winning the last 5 rounds in a row to a W.
