find me worse booing from uk crowd than Froch dirrell??

[New England]

I like how people debate, and use the line i watched multiple times or i watched this fight a couple of times,,,

truth of the matter is, you or judges can only score the fight one-time while its live,, judges cant go rewatch it, or have slow-mo replays,,,, You should just score the fight the first time you saw it, especially live,,, that would be an accurate score,,, reviewing the fight again wont change the scorecards, even though it may change your personal score of the fight....

I watched dirrel-froch one time, when it was live on tv,,, I thought Dirrell won an extremely narrow decision, 114-113

Now i could rewatch it, look for things i missed, maybe have froch winning it, but that doesnt change how i would have scored it live,,,,,,,

i never score fights live. it takes away from my entertainment on some level, and i watch this sport because i love it chiefly.


i can put together a very good card the following morning if i turn the sound off and watch the fight. all you need to do is determine who landed the more effective punches round by round, and it's not too tricky to block the other stuff [that you already saw the fight,] out.

Gonna watch this fight now. Froch is a glorified club fighter.

It's an awful fight. Dirrell fought scared and Froch couldn't land anything worthwhile.

I scored it live for Dirrell but according to the Englishmen I didn't even see it so I mentioned that. Which I do watch fights again anyway

Its cool to rewatch fights,, i do it all the time,, i may score them differently, but im just trying to say is that the judges only score it one time, and its easy to get caught up in the heat of the moment type stuff, whereas if you know the outcome, it will alter your opinion later on

Yes, but try scoring it live,, you may get a different result, than when you rewatch it the next day, with or without sound,,, watching something live can easily sway your scorecard, and if you are a judge you dont have the ability to rewatch and get a "perfect" scorecard

Good luck. That's a dreadful fight to watch, I've never rewatched it.

I just remember this fight as the one that dirrell did matrix type defense to froch..

dropping his hands low and dodging all froch's shots, in parts of the fight

i'm not a judge, and don't hold myself to those same limitations. a judge is more limited, watching a live fight from a fixed position at one side of the ring. i can watch a round twice if it's close. he has to give his best guess about who won if the round is close.


it's a different procedure. his follows the rules of judging a boxing match, but mine makes a more accurate determination about who actually won the rounds.

Long time ago, but Hagler v Minter was shameful.

I remember that. Hagler came to England and beat the hell out of Minter but he fought clean. His only crime was winning.Some of the crowd could not deal with that and they threw bear bottles at Hagler and he needed a police escort to get out of there safely. The English invented boxing in the 1700s and they have never liked to lose to non English fighters and they have been terrible sports about it for centuries.English referees will often cheat to help the Englishman win. I know there are many great fair minded boxing fans in England and many fair referees. But the fact is lots of English fans want their fighters to win at all cost and don't take losing well at all. American fans and fans all over the world are guilty of doing the same thing but England is pretty bad. I live in New Mexico and I was booing Dirrell from my tv set along with the English fans. Froch came to fight. Dirrell came to hit and then wrestle, clinch, hold or run.

Andre Dirrell completely out boxed Froch. It was a decisive robbery and Hearn is a conscious fraudster

No brits are probably the worse when it comes to booing, I think it's because of he fact football (soccer) is so big here and it crosses over, alot of boxing fans are soccer fans and well they get away with it there.
