carl froch has you all seething with envy

[slimshandy69]

The fans are the real judges, go on message boards and the overwhelming opinion is that Froch lost.

Why cant Froch fans understand, he got outworked, outlanded, hit with the cleaner shots throughout. This is Boxing yes? the object of the game is to hit the opponent more than he hits you or score a knockout yes ? who got hit more? Froch, was there a knockout? No! so who won? Dirrell obviously.

Now

lmao get a girlfriend mate...get a life..all the top boxing pundits who know more about boxing than you had froch winning...all the british fans had froch winning, everyone at ringside incouding me had froch winning..

The British commentators had Froch losing!! you tool. The fact that you used Steve Bunce and said he thought Froch won was just a moment, he is more biased than you. Fans are the judges, everyone knows that.

You can say what you like but one thing you cannot!!!! dispute is that Boxing is game that based on hitting the opponent more times than he hits you or knocking the opponent out, Froch got outlanded, outscored, hit with the cleaner punches and so he clearly lost. You have no argument.

[DrewWoodside]

hes a better boxer than you, hes better looking than you and hes has a fiotter girl than you...

He beat dirrell fairly and squarely..august the respected forum poster even changed his mind and accepted froch won by 3 rounds...in a scrappy fight..

26 and 0, beaten robin reid, pascal, taylor and dirrell, the list continues...

Its a worry when not one media outlet thought dirrell won even ea5t5ide boxing said froch won...

I think you lot need to stop falling for froch clever wind ups and start respecting someone whos going to be a hall of famer...

You're not banned yet? I thought you made a good case for it yesterday.

People call it a controversial decision, but I completely disagree. I thought it was a fair decision. This is a boxing match, a sport where two fighters fight. It is not a game where one guy runs and the other has to catch him.

First of all, Dirrell isn’t a bad fighter when he fights, key word being ‘when’. Froch cornered him so many times and Dirrell, rather than fight his way out, slid out of the way against the ropes and ran. Now, some say he used his speed and footwork, but this is boxing. You use your feet to help generate more power in punching and evade punches, not by running half away around the ring out the way. The speed should be how fast you are as a whole, not just focusing on the feet as Dirrell proved. I’ll even say this, Had Dirrell have counter punched Froch as he came in, whilst sliding off the ropes to evade, he’d have probably won a landslide on the cards. To give an example of what I mean, think Mayweather knocking Hatton down the first time in their fight. As Hatton moved in, Mayweather moved and punched. Still, if he don’t learn this, there’s always a spot next to Tyson Gay on the 100 metres track.

Second reason as to why Froch won was he was the aggressor. He was the one who wanted to fight, always looking to fight with Dirrell, chasing him down. He forced the fight to Dirrell for the full 12 rounds. Had he not done this, you’d have had Froch standing in the centre of the ring, with Dirrell doing laps around him. When they clinched, Froch would try and work on the inside with shots to the head rather than having a cuddle like Dirrell wanted. Perhaps Dirrell was whispering sweet nothings into his ear after all the insults he said in the build up. When Froch did land, it hurt Dirrell, and Dirrell looked to spoil. It made Dirrell look like he had the speed of Jones, but the spoiling tactics of Hopkins. It looked like Dirrell had no confidence in his own chin after being knocked down by Hanshaw. No matter how many times I see that ‘slip’ as it was ruled, it was definitely a knockdown.

Third reason was Dirrell was his constant negativity. He held Froch so many times and pushed him onto the ropes. This was clear as Froch often had his hands by his side if he wasn’t trying to punch Dirrell, which is the name of the game, and let Dirrell push him against the ropes just to prove it was all one way clinching. Whenever Froch got in close, this was Dirrell’s tactic and he rightly got a point deducted. Also, he was on the canvas four times moaning about one thing or another, albeit Froch threw him to the floor the once. Obviously, we can include running than fighting to be his main flaw in his negativity.

You look at this fight being a stinker and you look at why it was, and all fingers point to Dirrell. One guy wanted a fight, the other guy wanted to run, so in a fight, who should the decision go to? Froch came to fight, when he landed he hurt, was happy to mix it in rare cases where Dirrell threw meaningful punches and he stalked Dirrell down.

As Froch said, you should earn the title, not come to steal it. Did Dirrell do enough to win? I don’t think he did. You earn the title by boxing and throwning punches, not running away from them. It wasn’t Froch’s greatest performance due to Dirrell’s awkwardness and unwillingness to fight, but he didn’t deserve to lose his title in a fight like that and rightfully didn’t.

I’m not fully slating Dirrell, he has potential to be good, even a world champion, but his tactics for the fight were all wrong. With that said, for his flashy punches, I don’t think he’d have the chin to stand in front of a guy like Froch. What he does have is hand speed in abundance and needs to use this skill a hell of a lot more.

With that said, I can’t wait for his fight with Arthur Abraham, a powerful guy with more handspeed. It’ll be interesting to see if Dirrell has really learnt his lesson. I predict a AA stoppage. Froch fight Kessler, which I hope will be a slugfest. I think Kessler’s chin is largely untested so I’m intrigued as to who wins this one. I see a stoppage either way.

**** me you're like Horus or DLT. You generally only talk and defend or attack anything to do with Froch. The thing is, Floyd atleast is a great fighter.

[FreshOutOfHell]

If you think Froch is a future HOF, isn't it a bit concerning he came this close to loosing, against the lowest rated fighter of the tourney?

Slim - you never answer my questions

better looking?

the list isn't impressive much and he is going to lose his next two maybe by ko.

[Phirsole]

Froch likes to brawl, and both Kessler and AA will be more than willing to comply. Froch will lose to both, probably by (T)KO - his defense is too shabby.
