    Till this day, Forch's hometown gift over Dirrell dosen't sit right with me

    I mean I've re-watched the fight 3 times, most recently 30 minutes ago and Dirrell even dominated the championship rounds 11 and 12. How could they give the fight to Froch and specially how in the world did two judges score that fight 115-112 ?

    A little bit late to complain. With that said, yes, that was a BS GIFT DECISION FOR FROCH.

        "To this day..."

        "Till this day.." Suggests that you changed your mind.

        Not trying to be a **** at all, I just came inside this thread thinking someone was defending that BS decision Froch got!

        I would love a rematch after his great performance Saturday, but he definitely lost against Dirrell.

                Really? Your English is a million times better than most native English speakers on this board. Respect.

                    It was a close fight. Maybe Dirrell should have got the decision, but he ran all night and didn't really land a lot of significant punches. So Froch winning sits perfectly well with me. He pressed the action and put Dirrell on the back foot all evening. He fought like a coward. Saying that, a lot of rounds were extremely close and the scorecards were too wide, but a one point victory for either fighter is a just conclusion.

                    Another point, Froch maybe deserved the decision over Kessler, but it didn't work out that way. You win some, you lose some. Dirrell fans should stop *****ing and move on. It was a close fight, and in Froch's hometown, a close fight was always going to be scored for him.
