The 'Dirrell got robbed against Froch' myth

[Lead Cenobite]

Does this really need to be discussed anymore? The only one's who continue to drag this up are the insecure Carl froch fanboys who know that their hero lost decisively but refuse to accept it.



british boxing is a complete and utter joke and you can bet every single person who supports Carl froch is unemployed and living on a council estate.

Quoted for truth.

Dirrell was robbed. All these people score for negativity, and that's not how you score a fight.

In fact it proves that you are judging the fight with bias because "fighting negative" is not a basis for scoring a round.

Are you serious? These are professional judges you're talking to here. They have scored 100s of title fights, they know every criteria of scoring fights.




/Sarcasm.



Scoring on negativity, LOL. That's like a last resort type of thing, when the person you want to win, is losing on every realistic(not made up bull**** scoring) criteria to score a fight, you go to your last resort and make some **** up to make your guy look like he won in at least one category.


Lol he won because he "pressed the fight".

This is what makes my head hurt. Maybe it's cause these ******s are Calzaghe fans but ACTIVITY AND AGRESSION ARE NOT SCORING CRITERIA.

He showed the urgency and will to win in addition to landing more than ppl are trying to make it seem like he did.

Even if he wasn't landing at a very good rate it he was landing hard enough to actually do some damage because Dirrell did have his nose bloodied.

So yes out of the 2 men I would say Froch deserved to go home with his title, though it was a **** fight and I only had Froch up by 1 point.

fair enough, but not for me. froch only got the decision because it was in robin hood country. i dont know how people could score rounds for a fighter if he doesnt even land! and lets be honest, did froch even land 50 punches the whole fight?

[shade darkar]

People go on about how Froch hit air all night but im sorry Dirrel was not much better either.. he didn't land much, maybe a lil more but what with all the running/hugging and being in the mans backyard he was never winning like that. Americans are used to getting the home advantage but it's nice for a change when its the other way around.

complete and utter rubbish! have you seen the robbery of the year 2009 video? if not, have a look and you can see for yourself.

I think that Froch has a good shot at winning the tournament, hilariously enough.

This whole "you have take the title away from the champion" **** is nonsense.
