I don’t mind Carl Froch getting the decision over Andre Dirrell two Saturdays ago; I had it 114-113 for Dirrell and certainly a close decision either way shouldn’t have upset anybody. But I was flabbergasted to see the official scorecards a few days ago and learn that judge Massimo Barrovecchio of Italy gave rounds 11 and 12 to Froch, which is about as justifiable as having Larry David ahead of Rosie O’Donnell at the time of the stoppage. Because his final score was reasonable, Barrovecchio might escape scrutiny, and that would be a shame. Dubiously scored rounds should be reviewed by commissioners just as carefully as dubiously scored fights.- Eric Raskin

I've been saying from the beginning that this fight didn't really deserve a winner.
I bet on Dirrell and he showed heart at the end, but by then I was rooting for Froch because of all that bull**** holding and complaining.Comment

I scored the 12th for Froch but i thought the 11th was one of Dirrell's best rounds. Although the Showtime commentator was wanking over Dirrell in that round when he was hitting Froch's gloves.....he wasnt "hurt"Comment
