    How can you give the fight to a guy who is scared to engage and running across the ring NUMEROUS times?
    Because he was landing more punches. If you are landing punches while running away and the other guy isn't landing enough, you win by running away. The only reason Froch can be given that fight is because of how ****** Dirrell fought in the middle rounds. If he doesn't act like a jackass falling over himself and clinching he is given that fight.

      Inner city public education?

      Dirrell was on the move the entire fight... I can't give a fight to a guy who is scared to engage and stays on the defense the ENTIRE night....

        Anyone saying that Carl Froch has no skills doesn't watch him fight and instead comes on message boards and bad mouths him with no evidence. Sure he's no Willie Pep but he's not trying to be. He benefits from a granite chin, but in the fight with Pascal he was able to prove his skill to use his jab to measure distance and controlled the exchanges.

        Last night in Denmark proved again that Froch IS skilled. He faced one of the better tacticians in the division n was able to keep it close throughout. If you say he has no skill you are just jealous of him. Deal with it.

          I don't like him because, as a boxer, he embodies the type of boxer I would't like to be. Plus, he is a trash talker much worse than PBF and he was ass kicked by Dirrell, who is one of my guys.

          PLUS, he ****s a hot girl and he doesn't deserve it.

            Running, NOT getting hit, and LANDING more, bigger, cleaner punches>>>>>>>> Chasing around looking like a ****** landing absolutely nothing.

            Froch did not kick Dirrell's ass. That's straight crazy.

                even if he's the only one landing and hurts the other guy on two occassions?

                      Froch is a good fighter. His style is pure Jack Sharkey . It is not the most good looking style but very effective. It is a throwback style of fighting not to be underestimated.
