These white European fighters Froch, Abraham and Kessler have all been exposed and hey !! I don't even rate Dirrell that highly. They have all been WAY WAY over rated. Kessler, Froch and Abraham were the three leading favorites before the tournament started, I guess that's looking pretty silly now.
Froch aint lost yet
Your like Floyd Mayweather thinking that having an *O* on your record is the be all and end all. The truth is, not only could Froch have easily lost against Dirrell but he could have also lost against Taylor too and even his champship fight aganist Jean Pascal was close. I thought Dirrell beat Froch BUT I don't think it was an outragous decison to give the fight to Froch. People focus to much on the *O* you seen what happened with Kelly Pavlik, Ricky Hatton so an *O* don't mean much. It just sells the fights better. What does mean a lot is who you have fought and if you have fought good fighters how have you got on against those top fighters. The fact is Froch hasn't shown himself to be way superior to world class fighters. Your argument is the equvilent of a horse who wins by nose, or a basketball teams wins by a last second clutch shot and then claims that they are the greatest.
