Bollocks decision, and dissapointing in John Rawling saying well I have it Dirrell, but if Froch wins well thats boxing....

One of the worst robberies I have seen for a while.

Froch won only three rounds.

UK is just as bad as Italy. Disgraceful.

Embarrassing.

Sorry, but to give him the fight by 3 fvcking points is a total joke.

That old adage about 'you have to beat a champion properly to get the belt' is a load of old bollocks. It's a fight, if you win it by the smallest margin you become the new champ. Simple.

Wanted Froch to win but am shocked and feel sorry for Dirrell.

best summation of the verdict.

Night-night all.

Very bad that. And we like to complain about Germany

dirrell looked class when he actually went on the attack so as the saying goes youve got to really beat someone to take their title youre not going to nick it i had dirrell by 3!

You mean for boxing a smart fight and countering a slower, wide open fighter?

Poor decision, but i'm glad such a negative fighter didn't get it

yeah well lucky.

dirrell's tactics were too defensive.

he should kick himself.

Andre drivell!

The worst decision I have EVER seen. Beyond belief!!!

buncey is talking utter bollocks, trying to sell the fight, it was completely crap, carl fought like a complete amateur, walking round and round the ring doing fekk all doesnt win rounds.

Dirrell did not deserve the fight or did Froch, I have no arguments with the decision. He needs to cut the ring off better, simple as. Dirrell came accross excellent tonight, sound guy.

Why? Because I'm a new poster?

It was an abysmal decision, quite clearly.

I would agree with the criticisms of Dirrell but I thought the last 3 rounds he did enough. He was not negative in the championship rounds.

Mid rounds it was Ottke like, but for me he pulled away in the end.

Not cause your a new poster, didn't look at post count, just comment... That sort of decision is really not uncommon in boxing.

Jim looks totally p1sssed off with Buncey and looks as though he has had enough of him

i predict now that if they fight again dirrell will spank carl and knock him out. when dirrell opened up he had carl in trouble.

froch was rubbish.

let's not paper over nothing.

skin of his teeth and didn't back up none of his pre fight boasts.

he barely threw a shot for 3 rds.

I feel sorry for Dirrell I hope he gets a rematch with Froch

Poor decision

Hate to agree as I scored it to Dirrell, but he's just too negative to watch. Still think he was ripped off. Still think he'll stink the house out in his next two as well. If he showed the offence that he delivered in the 11th he could have made sure of it- but he didn't and I wont shed a tear for him...

He ran, hugged and refused to engage in the boxing contest. I'm sorry, but boxers like him are very bad for boxing. They're boring and put people off.
