I wouldn't fight any Euro boxer in their native country

So far in the super six it has been the travelling euros that has gotten the raw deal.

How so?

Dirrell got robbed. Blatantly robbed.

Abraham got what he deserved and was on his way to losing a very wide decision.

Kessler, as much as I like him(he's my favorite in the tournament) was losing to Ward with or without the illegal headbutts.

Froch won a close fight.

AA-Dirrell had the worst referee in a long time.

Kessler-Ward. Not calling those flying headbutts and even going to the corner of Kessler to warn him was just appauling.

And Taylor received a fair KTFO from the Abrahammer.

I'm starting to question what you guys think is a robbery?Froch Dirrell was a close fight But IMO you have to take the belt from the champ don't you agree?Dirrell did not do that Froch was pushing the action while Dirrell was running around the ring( not boxing there is a difference)The same goes for Froch Kessler but I had that fight much closer.But IMO Kessie did not do enough to take a belt from a champion who was in the fight with him.But I was not mad that Kessie won it was a close fight(I had Froch by two points)Any how Dirrell was not robbed and Froch has a point not to wanna fight in AA hometown.

Froch clearly isn't very gracious in defeat. Say what you want about how Dirrell fought him in England, but at least he accepted his defeat like a man. (Even though I thought he won the fight handidly.) Froch cannot say the same. I hope King Arthur puts him to sleep. Then he'll have no excuses.

Froch won a close fight.

A close fight that he should have lost.

AA-Dirrell had the worst referee in a long time.

A referee who missed knockdowns for both fighters. In any case Dirrell was clearly well ahead on all cards, and was winning round 11, when Abraham cheated.

Kessler-Ward. Not calling those flying headbutts and even going to the corner of Kessler to warn him was just appauling.

I know you are blinded by your love of Kessler but the headbutts were incidental. And they had less to do with that loss than the fact that Ward just beat Mikkel at every facet of the game.

I agree with this Froch beat Dirrell in a close sloppy fight, Dirrell didn't do enough to win the belt and I thought Froch possibly beat Kessler but ain't mad Kessler got the decision as it was a close competitive fight that could have gone either way, as for the Ward/Kessler fight Kessler just got his ass kicked flat out I don't care about headbutts or whatever else anyone is saying he got outworked and got destroyed!!!!

[Hard Boiled]

I would not be suprised if Froch girl leaves Froch, Takes the kid, Demands a settlement and sells her story of her time with Froch to the newspapers.

Anyway lets hope AA sparks Froch early.

No I don't agree with that logic. When boxers enter the ring the Championship should be left outside it. There is no criteria or ruling for scoring extra points to the Champion, nor should a judge lean one way or the other in that regard.

I agreed with everything you said, untill you said Kessler - Froch was a close fight.... 116-112, is not close.
