    And I'm sure this isn't the first time he's been wrong.

      That would make me smile.
      Why would you ever commend a robbery in this sport?

        **** the super six anyways, Whoever comes out winning still isn't the best until they face off against Bute.

            I can't believe people still think Froch won that fight. Clearly don't know what they are talking about.

            I do not like Direll or his style at all and I could find no conceivable way to give that fight to Froch. It wasn't even close.

            That said, I hope AA knocks Direll out.

                Hope they get that sorted out, it's really unfair to have 3 officials all from Michigan to judge this fight.

                  But dirrell was robbed, clearly. People saying he didn't do enough to win is comical. He made froch look like a bum.

                    Not so.

                    According to BILD Andre Direll's promotor Gary Shaw has, like his US compatriot Joe Goosen, made arrangements so that both the referee and one of the judges is from Direll's homestate of Michigan. One of the other judges is the mexican who had Direll as winner in his close encounter with Carl Froch in Nottingham.

                    The final judge is Gino Cavalleri. Both sides agree on him.


                    The rules in the super six are as follows:
