Poll: Who Won The Fight Dirrell Or Froch?

[Walterson]

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

totally right wizard king.

i thought those days were over.

i thought the super middle weight tourney was gonna put boxing back on the map.

it's only just shown how corrupt it is.

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

Sorry, but I am not an expert like you, so it was hard for me to score.

What is important I thought is that Dirrell won the champtionship rounds and took a battle to Froch and won it.

draw, neither did anything significant and dirrell held and ran like a B****, I might give it to dirrell becuz he won the last few rounds, but if he wants to win he needs to stop running....

[K-Nan]

The poll says it all.

Anybody who speaks otherwise is a romantic. The kind of fan who falls for the "blood and guts" fighter without looking at who actually is winning.

Or they're just a Brit.

Watch the fight again, every time Dirrell does a quick little baby step and flinches his shoulder, he is controling Froch without punching by making Froch think he is going to throw a punch. It has all the same effects as a punch without wasting energy on your part.

That's interesting. I did not know that flinching is the same as punching.

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

what are you talkin about? the first 4 rounds both froch and dirrell did nothin but throw a couple jabs to the body and head and both landed about the same ammount, you are makin it seem like dirrell was landing a bunch of punches in each round i think he only would land about 6 punches per round and froch was landin some jabs and some body shots when dirrell would have his back against the rope so most rounds were even bein that both fighters landed only about 4-6 punches per round

I'll be damned if Andre didn't try to knock Froch out anyways, though. Just goes to show that people who call him a "punk *****" are out of their mind. Why should he go on the line like that when he could have kept winning the fight in the same manner as earlier?

Its not about punches landed, its about who is controling the pace. Now please tell me, why on earth would Carl Froch fight a round where he throws 10 punches if he is doing what he wants?

Answer: He wouldn't, but he had to because Andre Dirrell was in 110% control.

I feel bad for Dirrell. HE should have won.
