dirrell v anyone will be hard on the eyes
Nearly as exciting as Haye v Harrison :rolleyes:
If Roch should rematch anybody it should be Kess (not likely now) or Pascal
Or klit v peterQuote:

What is it with people acting like Haye vs harrison is the first mismatch they've ever seen in the history of the sport.
so much for 'knowledgeable' posters.....

Hope this helps ;)
Thankfully it would never happen. Dirrell wouldn't go to England again to fight Froch. Froch wouldn't go to the US to fight Dirrell. Besides, Dirrell won't beat Ward, not unless he can pull off another top quality acting job.
add in Froch wouldn't dare to take the rematch in a fight that he was very lucky to get a hometown decision in ;)Quote:

Froch comes out with utter shite at times but he is the one fighter in the sport who would fight anyone and I have heard him say manytime's he wants to set the record straight with Dirrell asap.
Taylor was the bigger name, and he had no choice (and threatened to pull out of the fight) in the Kessler fight he was basically obligated to go fight Kessler in Denmark after he already had the luxury of fighting at home, and that's how it should be, Ward should of had the same thing done to himQuote:

Give your head a wobble. Jesus, your doubting a man with a resume like Frochs who travels to other fighters backyards?Quote:

Who threatened to pull out, go and read the fatcs and the ones you just made up in your head fella, Taylor had no intrest in the fight unless it was in the States so Froch took a major paycut to make the fight happen, but to be honest mate your the sort of guy whose attitude would change if it was the other way round If Taylor was the champ and he travelled to England and Froch was the big name you would be on here calling it a farce how the Champ has to travel but conveniently Froch should be the one to travel because he is not " the name ".
ummm Rocky Martinez just flew over to Scotland and lost his title, did i cry foul? no, why? cause there was 0 interest in the fight over here (although it turned out to be a great fight), Froch can barely land TV time in the UK (as said by plenty on this forum) and well when was the last time a Taylor fight hasn't been televised period?!?, he's not the first nor last guy with a title to have to fly out to another guys backyardQuote:

Froch may be a crude fighter in terms of technical ability, but 1 thing a lot of fans admire about the guy is that he's willing to fight any Tom, Dick, or Harry.Quote:

this thread is starting to sound like jealousy
wish froch was american do you?
he is cracking entertainment, if he was american he would be a massive star, its a pitty for him he is english coz he would be a lot better off financially
mind you if he was american he might actually think he lost the dirrell fight, but then again he would be american so there would be none of this dirrell won nonesense from americans
ummm who even brought up race here? long and behold we have the British version of milmascaras and Xaduboxer (and i'm Puerto Rican so i could care less if Froch is British or American) try to keep your narrow minded racist views to yourself bud, we already had to eliminate one thread cause it was full of stupid comments like yoursQuote:

noone in england cares what colour you are
we do have a laugh at americans quite often tho
i bet it must be shocking to someone who knows jack shit about BOXING when most people say that the guy who did most of the actual BOXING should have won the fight, it's beyond me how anyone could assume that Froch won that fight seeing how all he did was foul and get rockedQuote:

dirrell ran and he ran and he avoided the fight and he made the fight so boring it was tearful, i almost switched off a few times, he ruined the first night of the super 6, and his ridiculousness was comfirmed in round 2, does such a fool deserve to be world champ?
NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aa
His actions in that fight were pathetic in truth but personally I had Dirrell winning the fight clearly but that is my opinion.
agreed, it was a horrid fight, i had to force myself to see it the second time, but it was a CLEAR win for Dirrell, there is no way you could have Froch winning without being biasedQuote:

Needs to give his head a wobble imo.
i am not biast and i thought froch wonQuote:

you said it yourself the fight was so bad that you had to force yourself to watch it a second time, froch had never been in an even slightly bad fight before, can anyone win a fight with such anti-boxing? i dont think so
you don't win a fight by being the most entertaining fighter, if that was the case Pacquiao would be undefeated and Gatti would be considered the P4P greatest fighter everQuote:

the judges got it right, as they have in all of the other super six contests so far that have gone the distance

Boxing is the entertainment business, i watch it because it excites me like nothing else, dirrell made that fight what it was, such a big event for boxing, one of the worst fights i have seen, and froch did all the pushing
the clinching and the running lost dirrell the rounds significantly
Have you ever seen the criteria judges use for scoring a round? It is a professional sport with at least supposed rules and criteria for scoring and none of them have anything to do with being entertaining or exciting.Quote:

Rounds don't get scored for a fighter just because he plods forward landing very little. If Froch was in any way able to cut the ring off he probably would have been able to back Dirrell into a corner and land more, which in turn would have forced Dirrell to throw more. Personally I thought Dirrell took it by a a few rounds, but I haven't watched it since and don't plan to. I agree that the fight was horrible to watch and that was mainly down to Dirrell's gameplan, but it was up to Froch to try and counter that gameplan, which is something he didn't/couldn't do
Koppas v Eric has just been added to the undercard of me v Hornfinger. ;D
I just think its funny how just 2 years ago we were saying froch is not fighting anyone of worth and needs to step up and is avoiding big challenges, now we give him as an example of someone willing to fight anyone anywhere.
