    That Dirrell was jobbed in this fight.

    Landed the cleaner punches, made Froch miss the majority of his, had Froch hurt. I honestly found it hard to give Froch 4 rounds. I like to see what rounds people actually gave Slowbra

    Jumping to the floor on his knees and constant whining to the ref played it's part. Think you meant 'robbed' also

    Based on few highlights? Please. I already told you that Direll landed more punches because he had some good rounds where he dominated and even hurt Froch but because we score the fights on round by round basis then we have to score each round seperately. Post the whole fight.

    Notice how the commentator says during the 4th round "Oh Direll nice punch, he finally started going after Froch a little bit" Finally because he wasnt doing **** obviously prior to that.

    Why do you think your opinion is consensus?

    It was close, I had it for Dirrell as well, but robbery? No freaking way, close fight, and the only one Dirrell can blame is himself. Do you seriously think he thought he's ahead with that passive ****, in Froch's hometown?

    Watch Martinez vs. Cintron for consensus robbery.

    They said that because they knew Dirrell was the better fighter in there and was probably wondering why he doesn't take Croch's head off!!!!

    Jobbed is the correct expression.

    As for jumping to the floor, only once did he lose his balance and fall, the other 2 times Froch pulled him down or body slammed him.

    Considering thats illegal in boxing, I'd have complained too.

    And as I asked you, what rounds did Froch outland Dirrell?

    Again post a scorecard on rounds you think Froch won.

    He was outlanding Froch with jabs and controlling distance. In round 4 and 5 he started to pour it on a bit, and thats when Froch panicked and got dirty.

    Name me 5 rounds that you believe could have went to Froch.

    if you know how to score a fight its a clear Dirrell win. 8-4 is pretty much the closest you can have it if you know how to scoe boxing.

    Boxing is boxing. Rules arent supposed to change because you go to someone elses pad.

    Clean punching
    Effective aggression
    Defense
    Ring generalship


    Froch won none of these. Dirrell dominated atleast 2.

    I watched that fight many times and was debating in meaningful discussions on this subject. I am not goign to rewatch it now because I dont feel the need to. I had it 6-6 in rounds but soe of these rounds were so close I accept narrow victory for either man. You are the only one who comes up with this consensus bull****.

    He fell to the floor off his own accord once. The other 2 times he was pulled down by a Froch back hand, and body slamed.

    It wasn't a robbery, it was a close fight with very little action due to Dirrell being stupidly negative for 10 of the 12 rounds and Froch being totally clueless. I had Dirrell winning by a couple of points, but it was hardly a Funeka-Guzman type decision like you get in the US.

    There is no way you could give Froch 6 rounds. In a fight where he virtually landed 5 power punches, how do you think he deserved 6 rounds?
