What's the odds of europe winning every match vs USA?

I'd say slim to none. Dirrell boxed Frochs ears off and was robbed. Taylor ate Froch up earlier this year and would of won if it wasn't for the KO in the final seconds. If anything you have to say the Europeans were less than spectacular tonight. -

Abraham and/or Kessler will hand Froch his loss.Dirrell boxed his ears off,hurt him and still got robbed from a hometown decision. I cannot wait to see the compubox stats.
I believe when you go to fight for a belt,the challenger has to outclass the champion,and I believe Dirrell did enough.He hit him at will,put Carl out of his game in his own backyard,and hurt him on a few occasions.
As the belt holder,I believe Froch should have made it convincing why he is a champion-including defeating all set styles facing him.He failed to do this and got outpunched, threw air punches and looked like a one dimensional pub brawler-not a boxer.
Im not saying the fight wasn't as Carl said "negative",(both were employing poor choices-Dirrell holding-Froch punching behind the head,throwing Dirrell)but it looked like Dirrell had Carl figured out more than vice-versa.
On a side note-I hope Taylor does not fight again.Full 100% credit to Abraham for beating Jermain,but its clear there is something seriously wrong with Taylor - 3 of his last 5 fights coming by devestating knockouts.He hasn't been the same since Kelly Pavlik ko'd him (in round 7 of their first fight) and every fight after that besides Jeff Lacy,he has lost in a dramatic way-within 20 seconds of the final bell.For his own safety,I believe he needs to retire.Comment
