By supporting a robbery like bitches.
As an outsider who takes no sides... what I saw was Dirrell boxing like a boxer the first 10 rounds and actually landing punches.
In the UK you can't win championships by decision cause you'll get robbed.
The Brits need to understand that they need to actually land punches in order to win. Don't expect a victory if all u can show is flailing at air which will put calz to shame.
This is boxing, landing punches wins you championships.
flailing at the air.... go to the UK.
And take the robbery like a man dudes. He(froch) didn't barely land anything the whole fight and deserved a loss.
TO BE A CHAMP YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY LAND PUNCHES.
At least AA tried to win clean and avoided fighting like an mma fighter.
If he wants to run, he should join Tyson Gay. If he wants to run and call it fighting then he should be made to fight in a smaller ring, it's bad for the sport.
I agree in part. His leaning did get annoying and it's not attractive to watch.
But he was fighting a guy that could have knocked him out with one clean punch.
And not everything he did was bad for the sport. In fact a lot of things were good. When I watch boxing, I don't just look at the fists. The way he slipped and rolled was impressive, his countering too. And his footwork is very sharp.
Froch didn't give us any of those things, which a boxing fan would inevitably admire. Is Froch, therefore, bad for the sport?
As fans we need to think of the sport, we can't reward running. It's not Spanish bullfighting, people don't want to watch that crap. They want to see a fight and only the champion wanted to fight, he deserved to keep his belt.
wrong.... we need to keep the integrity of the sport together... that means no robberies.

what's bad for the sport is getting robbed in Rottingham...

The irony of a Hatton fan telling us about the ethics of the game, Hatton is a WWE wrestler in there:haha:
Im a Brit and i say Dirrell clearly won the fight, its a shame majority of British fans are like Infern0 (biased) rather than objectional.
Im british and i thought the decision was a ****in joke, Froch was punching air all night!! lol Dirrel put on a boxing masterpiece i thought in boxing the moto was to hit and not get hit and thats exactly wat Dirrel done
A Brit here, and yes, Dirrell was robbed.
He did run, but what did you want him to do? Exchange and get knocked out?
He was still landing, and I thought his countering was pretty impressive.
I realise people get robbed in every country, but that doesn't mean you excuse it when it happens in your own. Dirrell deserved to win and I'm disappointed about the decision.
true blue boxing fans here... green k for y'all

what so the panamanian ref and the judges from around the world have it in for direll. Its dirells fault he gave the judges the opportunity to score the fight against him by fighting like a girls blouse.
how is it dirrell's fault for landing more punches and not getting the victory?
that's a robbery!
Dirrell can have a rematch after the super 6 is finished if he wants.
wont happen though because Abrahams going to turn him into a vegetable
froch isn't that good... he got schooled by a green prospect.
Dirrell is a coward and a piece of trash, all his talk about how he was going to school froch!
he gave carl a lesson in how to run away like a scared bitch.
**** andre dirrell
dirrell did school crotch... and dirrel is still a green prospect!
Dirrell was lucky to get a split decision.
Damn yanks...
dirrell is lucky the ref didn't start throwing punches at him to help crotch win the fight
Dirrell deserved to lose for refusing to engage for over 60% of the fight. If that means he was robbed, then fcuk it, I support the decision and hope that judges everywhere take this attitude to fighters who don't actually want to fight.
lolz... so proud of a robbery!!!! that's a UK fan for you.
The best part about it all is their bullshit excuse. they don't dispute the fact that Dirrell outlanded and outpunched Froch. They say he ran too much.
****ing idiots. Not just Brits. Anybody defending a Froch victory. The point deduction was also retarded because Froch was rough housing without warning. Call the fight fair if both guys are breaking rules.
I never get mad at close decisions either, but this is an exception.
