      Just watched the fight, and this is the first thread ive seen.

      Cant really believe any boxing fan can really not give the man credit. Its true that many fighters quit or want to quit when they get hurt or injured, but he didnt. Therefore he deserves the upmost respect.

      It takes real balls to step inside the ring, let alone fight on when u are cut, behind on points, hurt and ur knee keeps giving way.

      Unbelievable anyone can downplay that.

      Morales, Cotto, De La Hoya, and many other champions have decided not to continue when they were taking a beating. Foreman just deserves the upmost respect.

        Dirrell went toe to toe with one of the P4P hardest punchers in boxing.

        Foreman ran from a shot Cotto. Hell atleast Froch is awkward and hits hard.

            The only reason he even got hurt is because he was RUNNING.
            Thats not heart or being a warrior.
            He was moving and using the ring. True he wasnt throwing much, but the 2nd time his knee gave way he was attempting to throw a punch, and he wanted to continue everytime.

            ****ing armchair toughmen make me sick!

                    Guys who are trying to make Foreman look like the late Arturo make me sick!

                    Hes not tough at all. Hes a runner. He got hurt while running. He deserved for his legs to go out. He also deserved the liver shot. I enjoyed it.

                      Cotto is not shot and he hits hard as well.

                      Dirrell against Stevens? You sure you want to say he is not a runner?

                      Define Toe to Toe, I saw Dirrell running a few rounds against AA. Especially towards the end slippin around and ****.
