    How many who crucified Froch getting the win over Dirrell think Alexander won?

    I see many of the people who thought Dirrell clearly beat Froch saying Alexander beat Kotelnik. Those same people who talked about how Froch wasn't landing and Dirrell landed all the clean punches are now defending Alexander getting outlanded just because he threw more, though just like Dirrell Kotelnik landed more and landed harder. That's serious hypocrisy.

    For those who fall under this category, explain how going backwards, getting outlanded, and getting hit by a big majority of the clean punches deserves a win but going forward, getting outlanded, and getting hit by most of the clean punches mean the guy got outboxed?

    For the record, I thought Dirrell won clearly and I think Kotelnik won clearly.

      I'm a big Dirrell fan, and really don't have an opinion on Alexander, but...

      Kotelnik CERTAINLY won more clearly than Dirrell did.

      I can see the Froch decision if you score a certain (dumb) way.

      I literally can't see how you give the decision to Alexander, unless you think hitting the gloves is a scoring blow.

          Froch landed more on Dirrell than Alexander did on Kotelnik.

          Kotelnik landed more than Dirrell.

          I thought Dirrell won a close fight. Kotelnik however was robbed. The two fights dont go hand in hand.

            Dirrell beat Froch and Kotelnik beat Alexander.

            Froch was more successful against Dirrell than Alexander was against Kotelnik imo.

              froch did a lot of holding and hitting, especially to the body, to make that fight close. if the fight had been in america dirrell would've won, anywhere in europe froch still would've won.

              can't see how alexander should've won that fight even in his hometown

                Dirrell landed the better shots on froch and kotelnik landed by far the better shots on devon, to say alexander won that fight you gota be reaching big time, he didnt

                  Gotta watch Froch-Dirrell again...first time I watched I thought Dirrell won...

                  I thought Alexander won last night...thought he banked a lotta rounds early and got beat up late...I didn't score it honestly though....

                    I scored the Dirrell/Froch fight by one point for Dirrell. I had Kotelnik over Alexander by 4 points, maybe 5. I could have seen the Dirrell/Froch fight either way really, the first 9 rounds were so sloppy and evenly fought that any of them could have gone either way. Only in the last 3 rounds did Dirrell turn it on and clearly win and he had a point deducted during one of those rounds. Kotelnik was down 2-1 or 3-1 heading into the 4th or 5th then swept all the rest of the rounds, he beat Alexander up.
