Poll: Who Won The Fight Dirrell Or Froch?

I think Dirrell won it.

Initial rounds were hard to score, with a lot of running and little punching.

Later rounds were easy to score, and I think Dirrell won several more of them.

I'm British and Dirrell blatantly won that fight.

It was disgraceful.

How can people say Froch won, it was just like Khan vs that Koltenik guy but better!

If you're going to win for not hitting than that's a robbery.

Bloody disgrace and the commentary was disgusting. It was only after round 5 that the commentators realised that Dirrell was schooling Froch.

Lost respect for Steve Bunce too.

And I'm hating this 'running' word. If you know you have a 'suspect' chin, why trade? Dirrell did what he had to do against someone with power, if he didn't he would have ended up like Taylor.

Really pissed off!

I hate when people say oh this guy only won because the other guy stopped doing whatever or the other guy just didn't do anything... The reason why he didn't do anything was because his best attributes were neutralized by the actions of the other fighter. I still have to watch the fight but from the comments I gather that dirrel used his foot speed and hand speed by continuously moving so froch couldn't sit on his punches and throw quality punches and countering him when he tried to rush in for a punch. Am I close?

Yes, Dirrell used classic amateur style lateral movement to prevent Froch from setting his feet the whole fight. First half of the fight he was throwing straight left hands to the body, while peppering Froch with the jab, and keeping Froch in check with gorgeous feints.

Middle part of the fight Froch started fouling like it was his job, was getting to Dirrells head a bit, but as soon as the took a point from Dirrell, he snapped back to reality and started to put a real beatdown on Froch. He had Froch hurt atleast twice, and buzzed a 3rd time in the last half of the fight, all while not getting hit at all.

Id honestly be surprised if Froch landed 12% of his punches tonight.

Early rounds were the easiest to score, Dirrell absolutely mind ****ed Froch with feints, made Froch scared to throw a punch.

what is really sad about this whole fight is when you got dirrell coner telling him you got to knock him out cause you aint getting a decision here. even knowing that they won the fight they knew they were going to lose, that **** aint right

Unbias doesn't mean give the other fighter credit for **** he didn't do.

I knew he wasn't getting the decision too. After the display of reffing, it really reflects on the process they use to pick officials. So if the ref was in the tank, its only fair to assume the judges were too.
