    everyone should back off him at least hes taking the big fights against hard opposition something calzaghe never did at all apart from taking on kessler

    Entirely true. Agree with the judge's scores or not, it wasn't Froch who scored the bout. He tried hard and though he came up short, at least he had the balls to admit he was frustrated with his whole performance, not just Andre's technique.

    Rather that giving him a hard time, we should be getting behind him in his upcoming fights.

    Although I was very disappointed with Froch's performance, I shall reserve judgement until the Super Six tournament has finished. I'm now really looking forward to Froch v Kessler and Dirrell V Abraham.

    Credit from across the pond where they appreciate a fighter who puts it all on the line and shoots from the lip, which is why benn and hatton were big box office and froch and haye have started to turn their heads.
    All boxers on all levels are involved in the occasional close or disputed decision but on the whole they satisfy our needs as fight fans and their need for a result.
    Personally i enjoyed saturdays/sundays fight and i think its seperated the wheat from the chaff of boxing fans.

    Dirrell showed his class in the fight. He was certainly a few levels above Froch in terms of skills, talent and ability - so if Dirrell is overrated - what the hell is Froch?!

    Also, boxing is about hitting and not being hit. Dirrel has good footwork and moved well. To call that "running away" or whatever, shows a lack of understanding of the fundamentals of the sport.

    Personally, I thought Froch's performance was terrible. If he had come out in the post fight interview and said something like "yeah, I had an off night and it wasn't a good performance", then fine. But the guy comes out with a load of **** about Dirrell running, about winning every round blah blah blah.

    Froch's pool of talent is pretty shallow. Yet he seems to think he's the white Roy Jones. I admire his willingness to fight, but I'm sick of hearing the **** that comes out of his mouth.

    If Froch is blaming Dirrell for how the fight went, does that mean he wouldn't fight any differently in a rematch?

    Totally agree with this...

    Dirrell never stood in front of Froch and slugged it out and gets slated for it. He used his superior boxing skills to frustrate Froch and outclass him.

    The only reason I continue to voice my discontent at the decision is because people are now dismissing Dirrells work completely and continue to view the fight with complete bias.

    If Dirrell got the nod and Bunce never gave the fight to Froch,I wonder if Frochs fans would still be as quick to voice their 'wrong' opinions on the bout.

    Froch won the fight. He could have gone after Dirrell like a complete mad man and knocked him out. Dirrell did not fight, he ran, held, fell down on canvas, and complained. What if Froch had done that?

    Jordan, was it as much of a bad decision as the Calzaghe/Hopkins fight ? Both stinkers, both could have gone either way.
