at the risk of sounding boring this is why i think dirrell lost
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
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.![]()
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.
Well, I do hope both Froch and Dirrell get a victory in their next fight. I'm a fan of both fighters, so I would certainly watch if they did indeed have a rematch.

as boxing fans i cannot believe you would actually be happy and support a dirrell victory in that fight, you must of been watching a different fight than me
just a point on the entertainment thing, judges dont score rounds on entertainment, but boxing is the entertainment business and they do on fighting and engaging in a fight and willingness to fight for the sake of the business, dirrell did none of that and every time there was any fight in the fight he clinched and complained
the right man won, although if i was the ref it wouldnt have gone past 6 rounds
