    Name what 5 rounds you gave Froch. I just dont think alot of people who scored it for Froch know how to judge a fight.

    Watch the video. Thats the fight right there. Or can you name what punches you saw Froch landing?

    There are no high lights for Froch in the fight and if they were then the video would last about 17 seconds!!!!!!!!!

    It was controversy. I think Froch won the fight by a round or it could had gone either way but it wasnt a robbery. When you want the title you have to go and get it from the champ and Dirrell was running around so scared and he showed no experience, he won some rounds but like I said, this was no robbery

    Martinez-Cintron and Funeka-Guzman were far worse.


    Martinez-PW was also a worse one than Froch-Dirrell.

    Not robbery of the year that is Martinez-Cintron. Dirrell had it to win and as soon as he had Froch hurt he should've jumped on him and maybe he would've stopped him. It was his fault for going to the judges especially in Froch's own hometown. The only judges Dirrell needed were "K" and "O".

    It was an ugly fight. Lot of holding, grabbing, clinching. Not to mention Dirrell was running the whole fight. Fights like this are hard to score. Either way I think AA KO's Dirrell.

    Dirrell had him hurt at the end of the 10th, no room to really press. And when he hurt Froch Froch immediately grabbed his head and started rabbit punching. :rofl


    But agreed, Dirrell showed that he was the better man even when they traded, he should have opened up earlier. But he fought the perfect fight in a boxer sense for most of the fight and would have gotten the decision anywhere else/

    Dirrell was fighting off of the back foot and slipping punches from an ineffective aggressive caveman!!! Cut it out!!

    So was Vitali Klitchko running from Chris Arreolla?

    I can't remember, it's not a fight i'd like to ever watch again. Bottom line is that Dirrell had the talent to win that fight easily, and did win a few rounds big when he opened up. However, he spent too many rounds running away and acting like a *****, and that isn't going to endear yourself to the judges. I felt Dirrell edged it by a point or two, but it was nowhere close to a robbery given the lack of punches from Dirrell in a large number of the rounds.

    Again, name what 5 rounds you gave Froch. I'll even post videos if you need to rewatch them.


    Sounds like alot of people gave the fight to Froch based on what Dirrell didnt do, rather then what Froch did. Which was nothing as the HL shows.

    Disagree, the Vegas judges would have hated the way he fought. Winning a few rounds big does not mean you win the fight big. He was too negative for too much of the fight for anyone to say he won it clearly and was robbed.
