What has Dirrell done to deserve a rematch. Froch won the first fight and Dirrell is an ugly spoiler. Just nasty to watch. Eww.

Not interested in Dirrel, would rather see a Pascal rematch.
Kessler rematch would be awesome, easy to make to. Froch wins in the UK.
I believe Froch did not look himself against Ward, a combination of Ward being very good and Froch having an off night, he says he had problems but also admits the better man on the night won. Not saying Froch would win this time but I think he could make it closer.
The guy is class and the sport will be worse off when he retires.
A Pascal rematch... Now that is a GREAT shout. I wonder if Pascal would be interested?
Ward is in a league of his own imo. I think Froch will beat Kessler ina rematch and the probably rematch Ward and lose again.
If only Ward was smaller (or Floyd was bigger) that would be a fight I would love to see. The 2 best P4P IMO (in terms of talent) and would be a great chess match.

Is Dirrell even fighting anymore? If I were Froch, I wouldn't even bother with that whiny chump Dirrell, high risk, low reward. Carl should go for a rematch, first with Kessler and then with that holy sack of shit "SOG" Ward, both in Nottingham or Manchester.
As for Bute not being legit, that's just fucking nonsense, give Froch the credit he deserves.
The majority knew bute would win, maybe by ko...
Now some of the same are saying Bute was no good. If you picked bute to win then either give froch his dues for destroying someone you held at a higher calibre than him... Or turn 180 and say bute was actually way over rated, you held him in too high esteem and admit that you don't know shit about boxing or rating fighters.
Agreed for the most part, but Ward isn't quite cut from the same cloth as Floyd is imo. He sort of fights the way Mayweather might if he wasn't quite as fast and accurate, at least to me. No doubt Ward is a very smart fighter though, he has the same kind of boxing brain and they are both completely cerebral(sp) in the ring. I think Ward and Hopkins of years back would've been a more even fight, although of course their being the same size makes it easier to say
I agree with this post. Froch should rematch Dirrell. I personally don't think Froch beat Dirrell. Hometown decision on that one.
Nobody actually thinks Froch beat Dirrell, but it was a piss poor fight and Froch has done so much more since they met. At this stage a rematch does nothing for Carl, and Direll doesn't deserve it having been so inactive.
He is strangely inactive. Is he injured. The last thing I remember seeing of him was him sparring with Groves before the Degale fight. Has he had any fights since he retired from the super six.
I still think the guy is one of the best up there with Froch and Kessler. Not counting ward as hes better than the lot. And those three could fight for the right for another chance at ward. I think Dirrells style would prepare Kessler or Froch best for another chance at Ward. But they would have to beat him first.
I think Dirrell did some things as well as anyone I've ever seen, he is undoubtedly a great talent but frustrating as hell. I believe he fought recently, but that was his first fight since the Abraham DQ and I didn't see it, don't think I'd heard of his opponent either. There was a lot made of whether he legitimately had any lasting damage from that cheap shot Abraham landed on him, but in either event it probably really hurt his standing with most fans and possibly promoters or the networks etc. If it was an acting job then it was pitiful and there was no excuse for taking such a layoff, and if it truly was a brain injury type deal then that doesn't bode well for him at all in the future. It was a blatant cheap shot but nothing that you'd expect to cause serious lasting damage unless there was already a screw loose or something, at least imo.
Yes bute was over hyped but lets be honest froch didn't even turn up to the fight did he?
Classic "Loser of the Fight was Overhyped and Untested" thread.
Just goes to show some things here never change.
who is dirrell going to fight next?
