Comments Thread For: DeGale Drops Dirrell Twice, Wins Decision and Title

[junior gong]

Always the same with you farkin yanks... From:

"No way DeGale wins, Brits are too soft"

"Overhyped Brits"

"DeGale another weak Brit, will be exposed"


To:

"Dirrell won doe"

"DeGale ran doe"

"Dirrell won every single round except round 2 doe"

"Hometown decision for the Brit fighting in Boston doe"


Shut the f@ck up, you lost, your boy was saved by the bell in round 2, and didn't deserve to win. Eat ****

End thread!

[Mr. Philadel]

just watched it....pretty good scrap....only complaint is that wide score the Canadian judge had...other than that, the right dude won imo....congratz to Chunky...he's a cool dude and Dirrell showed he got some dog in him...props to BOTH for a good fight

Say Groves beats Jack for the WBC belt.
The IBF will be with DeGale in the UK and the WBO stays in Germany.
Will SMW all of a sudden become "weak" overnight? lol

[Weebler I]

at least people can stop think haymon fighters will win automatically i had it for dirrel as well

Haymon scorecards have been fair on PBC so as not to turn off the public, but the reason people talk about Haymon cards is because they've been bogus for around a decade.

It'll remain strong as long as Ward is hypothetically perceived as being on top.

A decade? For a bunch of years he's only had a few fighters. His stable didn't grow big until the last couple of years. And that's where you can lay claim to some 'bogus' scorecards.

I gave direll the 5th round, i scored it 9-7 the 2nd round doh which i know is strange but direll was winning that round bar a the few punches that put him down,hence the fact i said a split decision would of been fair,cause if i scored it properly 10-7 round it was degale by a point,so ya my fault i had it degale by a point really sorry, i had dirrell winning from the 5th to the 11th, their was a few swing rounds,but i gave those to dirrell thinking judges might favour that,so in the end still only had degale winning by a point, dont get me wrong i was screaming for degale in this fight,but he really did step off a bit and wasnt exactly boxing great on the back foot,coming forward he was brilliant, but like i said it could have swung either way.

You can't score a 9-7 round without a points deduction for a foul. It's a 10 point MUST system.

You have to score 10 points to the winner of the round and DeGale with two knockdowns was definitely the winner of that round.

Will be interesting to see if Ward can make 168 again

I agree, very poor showing from DeGale. He caught Andre with some shots that he shouldn't have gotten got with early, thats was about the extend of the success he had in the fight. He basically closed his eyes and swung for the fences and somehow caught Dirrell for the knockdown, in a round that he was losing fairly decisively.

I think the 2nd knock down is debatable, as he was pushed down.

Outside of that. DeGale really did nothing, he was just posturing and getting picked apart.

What a load of ****

Great win for DeGale.

Dirrell is no joke.

Very good fighter is Dirrell, and he showed a lot of heart in this fight.
