    I picked Foch to KO Dirrell in that fight and cheered for him but I hate to admit Dirrell pulled it out.

    Great analysis - My feeling has always been that the judges handed the close rounds to Froch as a result of Dirrell's desire to throw himself on the canvas, hug and cry at every opportunity. In a close round, that sort of thing is ALWAYS going to have an impact.

    If Dirrell fought properly, he'd have won that fight. As it is, he tossed away pretty much every tight stanza with his preposterous antics. He had the talent, yet nothing else was remotely good about him that night.
