    like i've said many times before, dirrell had the ability to beat froch, but he was too defensive minded and gave rounds away that he could of won just for that very reason against a home town fighter. i hope dirrell has learned his lesson.

    to be honest i've only watched the fight once, and that was live. i believe that you'll have to watch a fight 2-3 times atleast to really make a accurate scorecard in that person's view. at the time i watched it, i was quite annoyed with dirrell that he chose to box the way he did. i expected better from him. i actually expected dirrell to give froch a lot of problems, more than he actually did on the night. in a rematch i think dirrell would do better. the way i looked at it was he gave rounds away that he could of won.

    Trust, me I've seen the fight plenty.

    You'd have to really stretch your logic to give Froch 4 rounds. 5 rounds is absurd. There is no way Froch won that fight and only 1 poster out of all so far has been ever able to debate me on it.

    Was Dirrell negative? Yes. Did he hold a little to much? Yes? Did he still land more punches then Froch and make Froch miss the majority of his? Yes. And thats really all that counts.

    not only do you have to win the rounds, you have to win them clearly, and that's what i meant by throwing the rounds away. at the time i thought dirrell was winning rounds, and then he let froch in for the last minute or so in rounds, and i was thinking dirrell is not going to win rounds in another country like this. watch the fight and see how many rounds dirrell let froch in near the end of rounds. lack of experience me thinks. like i said, lesson learned .

    No point in scoring a fight if you ignore the first 2 minutes of a round is there?

    There were some rounds where Froch would get in a decent punch near the end of the round that Dirrell didnt do enough in, round 3 is a good example.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3-qEH90blc[/ame]

    I actually gave that round to Froch even though he basically landed 1 punch the entire round. Hey im trying to be fair.

    But nothing Froch did would make me forget that Dirrell landed 10 clean punches before Froch landed one. Just because that one punch came with 10 seconds to go in the round, and even though it barely landed it got the english crowd to scream. That would be poor judging.


    Tell me, what rhyme or reason would there be for the Italian judge to give Round 11 to Carl Froch?

    the way i personally scored it would of had dirrell as a winner, but me scoring the fight realistically as a judge, well then yes the last minute of every round is very important. it's been made clear that is the most important stage in a fight, why do you think fighters train to fight in burst in the last 30 seconds-1 minute? it's because of that very reason.

    Never heard that logic. I've heard of trying to steal rounds. But thats usually when a round is close and one fighter tries to win it on activity. Froch really wasnt active in this fight, he was generally as cautious as Dirrell was and even when he had Dirrell pinned up against the ropes he'd throw one shot at a time.

    Even if Froch did throw more in the last minute of most rounds, you still have to land punches.

    Btw, you didnt answer my question in reference to the 11th which the Italian judge gave to Froch, even though Dirrell outlanded and outworked Froch in the round clearly?

    you've actually proven my point by posting that clip. froch in the last 45 seconds was the busier fighter. that's what i mean by giving rounds away as that's the time fighters should step it up instead it was the time dirrell stood back and let froch come in. like i said, i hope it's a lesson learned.

    There is no irony. Irony would be that Dirrell actually lost the fight, that any Europeans could actually post a scorecard defending the judges decision. Given that fact its not really irony.

    Conversely I could prove to Joesaverage that Kessler and Ward were not even heading into the 10th. :rofl

    Uhh no. I posted that round as evidence of a round I gave to Carl Froch already. Not the fact that it was the norm throughout the fight, because it wasnt. That right Froch landed was one of 3-4 power punches Froch landed cleanly throughout the whole fight.

    Again, you wont answer my question, what reasoning would the Italian judge have to give Froch the 11th? Based on what?

    stealing rounds is normally by being the busier fighter near the end of the rounds, i thought everyone knew that. when you watch boxers train, don't you wonder why they have a little buzzing clock that reminds them to step it up in the last 30 seconds? don't you wonder why they do that? well now you know.


    i can't even remember the 11th, and if it's that clear, then i'll probably agree with you and say the judge was blind.
