    By this logic, Wlad should be DQed in every fight after round 2.

    Froch got away with body-slamming and hitting behind the head. It was lucky it was in the UK otherwise a sensible ref would've taken points from Froch or at least not taking points to just Dirrell he was less dirty of the two fighters.

    Ward got away with headbuts the whole night. It was lucky it was in the US otherwise a sensible ref would've taken points from Ward...

    Nothing more hilarious than a presumable Brit making a video about holding/wrestling considering your iconic Ricky the "hit, hold, and maul" Hatton. Dirrell held a bit too much in unneeded spots but it hardly puts a dent in the rule-breaking from Froch or Hatton in their fights. A little consistency.

    Ward put on a clinic. The headbutts were incidental, hitting behind the head is not. Learn the difference.

    I thought Dre won it. I gotta laugh at those laughable late punchstat numbers people bring up when it's convienient to thier argument.

    What really happened was alot of holding, moving and good relexes when cornered by dirrell with some clean shots in there.

    What really happened with froch is a bunch of airball flurries, and fustrated dirty tactics. The 30 or 40 shots behind the head warrented more of a DQ than anything dirrell did by a mile.

    What i saw without needing punchstats is they were equal with thier jabs. Froch landed maybe 6 clean power shots upstairs while dirrell landed 40+ blatant headsnapping power shots upstairs. Some guys just can't tell if a punch lands and that is the god honest truth.

    I also saw dirrell bring it to froch in the championship rounds and have a belgium judge give froch both the 11th and 12th for the win. The belgium judge just scores the 11th accurately to Dirrell (like everyone in the world knows he should have regardless of opinions) dirrell wins the split decision witht the 114-113 on that card. That belgium Judge was paid off or just doesn't need to be judging. Even the most avid froch siders know dirrell won the 11th.

    Incidental yes... over, and over, and over, and over... a lot of incidents if you ask me!!

    Taking nothing away from Ward's performance, but tsss claiming all those headbutts were incidents?? Charging head first over and over and over??

    Yeah Ward was purposefully ramming his head every chance he got at Kessler because it wasn't like he wasn't already schooling him. **** off you don't know what the hell you're talking about. I'm sure you think Holyfield beat Tyson because he was head-butting too? ****ing momo.

    Well nobody asked you- you came out of the woodworks with your comment as if it was as valid as a comparison to the Froch-Dirrell fight when it clearly isn't. Anyway, it's obviously partly a matchup thing. I didn't see Ward ramming his head into Green. Heads collide when one fighters comes in or both come in. It happens in boxing. There's nothing to say Ward was doing it intentionally. We can actually say that about Froch's hitting behind the head because it was obvious he did it repeatedly after being frustrated.

    Yeah, just like how people say Dirrell clearly faked the DQ against Abraham. The only thing clear is Froch's hitting behind the head repeatedly was far more blatant than Ward's "intentionally" head-butting only a ****ing ****** would argue otherwise. But you're arrogant enough to actually believe a subjective thing like your opinion is some fact. You don't know **** about fighting with cuts like that so stop trying to be some authority on the subject.

    The fight with Froch was close but only because it was one of those difficult to score fights. There was more holding than boxing, therefore making it hard to score, so for that reason alone Dirrell deserved to lose, never mind the fact that Froch was shading it.

    I'm a Wlad fan, but I think he needs to be told. If he was told several times and the referee took a point, I'd have no issue with that. If he carried on holding, he would simply deserve to be DQed.

    Body slamming? You say that like he was doing it ten times a round. It happens in boxing, when a fighter is trying to stop an opponent from holding. It's the same as the rabbit punches. Froch wasn't holding, he was trying to break the clinch to force the fight. If you're going to hold, rabbit punches and body slams are inevitable.
