Dirrell getting dropped video

[Wales]

Any news on a TV deal Gomez ... ?

Yea, this video shows dirrel has pretty good recovery rather than a bad chin in my opinion, that was a pretty flush shot, thanks alot for the clip.

My thought s exactly .. that was a peach of a punch. It isn`t so bad he got knocked down by the shot - rather how he got hit by it in the beginning.
To get up and win from that is a plus rather than a minus.

It's already been said, but that video's anything but a chink in his armour showing, that shot landed flush as you like and he got up like it was nothing. Not good news for Froch.

He got put on his arse against a nobody! The best name on his record is Anthony Hanshaw and he is getting in against a provern elite fighter.......Thank you skybet for the 5/2 Froch stoppage win

I'm not disagreeing necessarily, but it would've been less daunting a task if we didn't know that Dirrell had a good set of whiskers, which that video proves, especially when the most likely outcome is that Froch's going to be outboxed and will need to produce his usual second half comeback.

Personally, I'm hoping Froch can put him under enough sustained pressure to make it a winnable decision. He may well be green enough to wilt. I just hope Froch's chin continues to amaze with the shots he'll most certainly be having to deal with in return.

If you watch the whole round you see he gets shook pretty bad and that the other guy is a proper bum.

Do you want me to put it up ?

After seeing more of the knock down you see that Dirrell is quite wobbly. Good stuff. Froch will be happy with that, I'm sure.

Hadn't Pascal been put over earlier in his career?

He turned out to be able to take Froch's punches well enough

No he's not been down as far as i know.

They reckon he was buzzed by Omar Pitman but it didn't look that bad to me, more like a stumble.

The fight is on dailymotion.com if you want to watch it.

I thought he clearly looked hurt by Pittman. He was also hurt by Brian Norman. Using the logic some people here are, if Brian Norman and Pittman could hurt Pascal, Froch should have been able to stop him early without any trouble.

Did that video take long to load? I gave up.
