It's as if they cannot face the truth that the british fighter is losing, and rather than say it outloud to their fellow countrymen, they just act like it's still an even fight.
Funnily enough I was saying the exact same thing to someone just yesterday, Froch loves his 10-10 rounds.
However I don't think Boxnation are quite as guilty of it, I'm guessing that is because they know that they have a more hardcore type of boxing fan whilst Sky have more casual fans that tune in, I honestly think that Froch and Co are told to keep the scores ad close as possible to keep the casual fans interest (especially if the Brit is losing or struggling)
