    I'm totally gonna bump this after the S6.

    Andrade had bute down on his ass for 30 seconds before the ref finally started counting, by the time the bell had gone bute had been down for almost a minute

    care to explain to me how that can compare in any manner to froch-dirrell??
    30 seconds? really? FAIL

    Dirrell beat Froch period. The whole justification for Froch winning was "he was coming forward" He wasn't landing shit, he wasn't throwing shit, he hadn't a clue of what to do. As long as he was walking forward though he grabs the cards. I think Fenster put it best when he stated that the judges say Dirrell falling all over the place and probably held it against him even though he was clearly winning the rounds.

    carl froch spent 36minutes walking towards andre dirrell with his fists ready to fly. Dirrell spent 36minutes doing a running/falling over double act. Froch is the champion, and its in his home country. How the hell do you expect to get a decision??

    Dirrell wanted no part of froch, the better fighter won

    Dirrell spent many rounds being the BOXER and peppered Froch, he even hurt Froch a few times. I'm pretty sure there is a good reason they didn't show the punch stats, cause Dirrell would have been light years ahead. Dirrell did act like a biatch in the second half of the fight I admit that, but he still should have won.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    When i first watched the fight through a showtime stream online (i know im a tight arse) i had froch maybe a round or so up. When i actually bothered to take out the patriotic commentating and watch it in realtime its clear for all to see that froch won that fight as easy as he won the pascal fight

    Yeah, because you're not one to let patriotism affect how you view the fight

    I suppose the Primetime commentary team including long-time Froch supporter John Rawling & Hennessy fighter Jon Thaxton were also clouded by pro-US feeling when they had Dirrell winning by a couple of rounds

    So what if Andre Dirrell didn't stand toe to toe ? boxing is about ring generalship, defense, clean/effective punching. Andre Dirrell landed the better punches, for the most part he controlled the fight, fighting when he wanted to and not allowing Carl Froch to get off.

    He had Carl Froch rocked twice, where as Andre Dirrell was never hurt. Yes i don't like Andre Dirrell style but your British bias is clouding your judgment. Getting ready to let your fists fly as you put it means what exactly ?

    The fact is he hardly landed anything, and his pressure was ineffective. Andre Dirrell won hands down and a majority of the boxing fans feel that way aswell.

    You seriously should get a job with showtime working on press row as you clearly have no idea how to score a contest and are easily swayed by others around you

    I don't think you have a clue what your talking about personally, and your just totally biased when it comes to British fighters.
