    Had the fight taken place anywhere outside Froch's hometown of Nottingham it would have been a UD LOSS on his record.
    So you had Dirrell by 3 but it's a robbery?

    A robbery is if it's 118-109 and they give it to the other guy, like Chisora/Helenius

      Hey buddy.

      Same logic can be applied to Froch-Kessler. Had the fight not been in Denmark, Froch probably would have gotten the nod. Either way, I can only make an argument for two losses on Froch's resume.

        Had it 8-3-1 too Andre.Dirrell for me was landing all the better shots while Carl was applying ineffective pressure

            I had dirrell 8-4 and I don't even like the guy tbh

            even though dirrell fought on his backfoot (ran if u will) froch was missing a lot of punches and by a lot I mean A LOT

            I don't score agression like that...I score effective agression

              Dirrell by close but clear decision. He was making Froch miss and hitting him with the cleaner punches. And Froch seemingly had no answer other than to start fouling.

              Incidentally this was another case of an English ref losing control of the fight and letting the home fighter get away with too much mauling and roughhousing. Like when Hatton fought Tszyu.

                  in that case dirrell's record should be something like 9-12

                    Holding, running, and literally diving to the canvas. If not DQ I still had Froch winning.

                      I had Dirrell 8-4 but had no problem with the decision. Dirrell had only himself to blame. It was his first real big fight and he didn't have the nerve to let his hands go enough.

                      Any time he threw more than one punch he would touch Froch and the one time he hit Froch clean he hurt Froch worse than he has been hurt since Taylor put him down.

                      Dirrell could have made it a impossible task to score it for Froch if he had only done a little bit more. He has to take the blame and his team does as well for expecting to walk out of Nottingham with a win playing it so conservatively.
