    Mayweather runs and dances around as much if not more than Dirrell yet he seems to get away with it. I don't think Direll is chinny at all to be fair, his style is hit and move, just like Mayweather. Froch will be easy pickings for Kessler, I wouldn't bet on Froch again if I were you.:D

    He's nothing like Mayweather. Mayweather uses movement but he can fight inside, infact he's masterful there. He ain't doing any of that clinching every time bull****.

    Kessler will destroy him, I mean its pretty clear (although it was before tonights fight really).

    I hope people still don't think Froch would have had a chance against Calzaghe....

    It was only fools/cheerleaders like cityofgod that know jack about boxing that ever thought Froch had even a slither of a chance to beat Calzaghe.

    i had it 6-6 with the point off for dirrell giving froch the win.

    Froch was ****...but dirrell missed his chance!!

    If he had thrown combinations and moved raher than dancing about all night then he would have easily won that. However he just ran and clinched whenever he felt danger.
    Mayweather may be defensive but he uses movement and can thrown combinations..dirrell cant!

    In the general its turned into a daylight robbery!

    Froch beat Dirrel. It was Dirrel who was bleeding from the mouth and nose. Dirrel was running, holding, complaining, not fighting. Froch landed more punches.

    i think showtime only had dirrell winning by a couple, and in their own words with a lot of those close rounds

    the wide scoreline for froch was stupid, but the other two were reasonable imo

    Showtime agreed that Froch won by 2 points instead of 3. Froch won.

    Both fighters are incredibly dire, it is irrelevant.

    Ward was the only hope America had, but he's straight in against Kessler.

    Froch - Abraham would be hilarious.

    Froch, at times, looked totally out of his depth, against a guy who everyone says is "out of his depth". That puts Carl's performance in context, IMO.

    But THE most annoying thing is Froch moaning about Dirrell not standing and fighting. FFS, thats boxing, fighters have different styles and tactics, why ***** and moan about it, just because you got made to look like a jumped up domestic fighter. :roll:

    I think Dirrell won the fight but let's face it mate, you were 100% against Froch before the fight, so lets not make out that this fight turned you against him.
