Who won? Froch? Or Dirrell?

[Violent Demise]

The only people that are gonna pick Froch are only picking him because Dirrell doesn't have a style they like.

But whether you like Dirrells style or think it's boring or whatever you want to believe, it doesn't take away that he won the fight whether you like it or not.

And also after he got that point taken away HE was the one backing up Froch, he was the one making the fight, he was the one going all out while Froch looked confused especially after Dirrell hurt him, and continued to hurt him.

It's funny how no one mentions that. They mention Dirrells holding but don't mention Froch's holding, and rough housing and rabbit punches, and there were times it looked like he was winding up those rabbit punches and lets not forget the hitting on the break and the ref did nothing. He warned Froch a bunch of times but then took a point from Dirrell without any warning whatsoever.

You are only picking Froch because you don't like Dirrells style. But boxing ain't about what style you like when it comes to a decision. Dirrell won the fight and he won it pretty one sidedly. Whether you like the way he did it or not doesn't mean Froch won. Because if you are complaining on somethin Dirrell did then how can you give Froch credit for not being able to do shit about it?

Dirrell won. Simple as that. And I'll pick Dirrell in any of the other fights before I pick Froch.

I seen some of these posters previous posts before. There only picking Fraud cuz Dirrell is black. It's pretty obvious. I would hate to think there really that stupid that they can't score a fight that was pretty much easy to score

Your right in everything you say. But Dirrell is not from the UK. So therefor he can not win. The fix was in from the beginning. It's how they roll in the UK and Europe. The home fighter wins no matter what.

Maybe Dirrell should have knocked out Froch as he was so much better.

Funny thread that's for sure.

Like that would of mattered. Soon as Fraud would of hit the canvas the bell would of rang early and Fraud's corner would of rushed in to help him. Some how it would of been ruled a slip. I seen this shiit happen in Europe before. Don't make a fool of yourself by denying it hasn't. It's the most corrupt continent in the whole fukkin world.

What are the worst decisions you know of to come out of the the UK of late? (Not Europe like you say)

You are ridiculous. That just doesn't happen. Sure some european countries are quite bad (Germany, Italy for instance, Italy being the worst IMO) but i honestly don't feel the UK is any worse than anywhere else, and certainly not worse than good ol' YooS.A. You also make a fool of yourself by wrongly viewing Europe as a single entity. Its a diverse continent containing wildly different cultures, customs and ethics. The UK does not exactly have a history of 'corrupt' decisions, and in fact i challenge you to a name and shame. You name an incident of corrupt scoring in the UK and i will reply with an example from the US.

Oh and just to clarify, i had Dirrell winning by two. But I have no real problem with the decision as he was supposed to be taking part in a boxing match, not strictly come dancing. Either way i think its creative to call the outcome corrupt.

Because it has nothing to do with the thread & it's not hard to see what you're insinuating.

The difference between the Hopkins - Calzaghe fight and the Froch - Dirrell fight is Calzaghe's aggression was actually effective as he threw more than Hopkins and was able to land some shots especially as the fight went on.

Froch on the other hand came forward but threw less than Dirrell the whole fight and landed literally nothing.

Exactly, I thought Hopkins just edged Calzaghe, but supporting Joe, I had no real problem it going the other way. However, that was a fight with a lot of close rounds where it came down to activity or cleaner effective punching. The difference was both were landing.

I'm pretty sure Froch threw less & definitely landed less. This fight should be compared to fights like Berto-Urango & Khan-Kotelnik. It was in no way comparable to JMM-Pac II or B-Hop-Joe

Kel was giving an example of another fight in which one fighter playacted in order to gain an advantage. Thats all. He wasn't comparing the validity of the scoring in any way.

Yes the UK is in Europe but you know damn well that you are trying to to say we are like Germany etc.. in terms of bullshit results. Not the case at all.

It's obvious your Boxing knowledge is very limited if you actually believe that. Go watch more Boxing and gain more knowledge. Maybe than you'll be worth debating with.

1) I don't mean to be difficult but thought i should point out that Froch won.....whether you like it or not.

2) i think its well known that judges preferences are important in the scoring of a fight. Im sure Dirrell knew that too.

3) Did he?

[Spicoli]

Unfortunatly I had Dirrell winning.Froch reacted to him for the better part of the night and I think Dirrell was there to be walked down and hurt late but had banked enough rounds early.
