Lmao, let me guess, you scored for coming forward and getting peppered in the face. Boxing is about punches it isn't a tough guy contest.

114 - 113 Froch. However a draw, or a one point win for Dirrell could be argued. I was in the arena with a good view last night, so I have experienced this fight from two perspectives.

One thing that was apparent straight away, was Showtimes biased commentary. Froch landed quite a lot of jabs and inside punches that were ignored and not commented on. On top of this when Dirrell landed they were making a big deal out of soft jabs that barely knocked Froch's head back. Also Froch landed quite a few counter shots in exchanges that went unnoticed, while Dirrells were exuberantly praised.

There were a lot of close and hard fought rounds in this fight, and a few could have gone either way, but I still don't think Dirrell warranted the decision. He spoiled all night because he didn't want to get caught up in the exchanges. Froch had Dirrell on the back foot for 10 out of 12 rounds, and landed enough of his own punches, and worked enough on the inside to win the fight. I don't see Froch's win as a controversial decision. Two of the judges score cards were definitely a little wide, but the correct fighter won.

You can't have a 9 - 9 round.

One fighter has to have a 10.

Froch won the fight, Dirrell did not fight the right game plan, he should of been more aggressive and lost the fight for himself with all the spoiling, complaining and running.

not if a point is taken away...... then, a even round would be 9-9, not 10-10

You can have a 9-9 round if the guy that won the round get a point taken away~.

So far 3 british people taking points away for movement. I am yet to hear someone say Froch landed more shots, the better shots, or even more than 2 shots. All I hear is he pressed the fight (albeit with his face). How come it was Froch who was the only one hurt in the fight?

Damn you Antonio Tarver!!!

If that's the case, I will have to give that round to Froch, because Dirrell had a point deducted.

Froch didn't win a round untill the 7th. He wen't on to win the 8th round, and from there on I felt sorry and may have given him some rounds. Won 3 rounds, may have given him a round I shouldn't have. Like I said, he won no more then 4 rounds and landed no more then 3-4 solid shots. You can't win a fight if you don't land.
