Personally i can't see how someone couldve gave the fight to Oscar. I think once they realized how much money the fight was going to make they planted the seeds for a rematch and made it an SD
People say DLH will fight Cotto only if he beats Floyd, but I have a feeling the judging will be rigged again, and the judges will make the fight close or even a draw to justify giving oscar a shot at cotto
i think they were a little too sympathetic towards Oscar. Floyd schooled him on points.
what are you smoking, anyone hs the punch stats....he did not smoke him,
dlh work-rate was higher, connect % was higher for floyd, but not a high output
I thought so, I mean I had DLH winning the fight, it was close but I favor the aggressor and Floyd with his back on the ropes the most part of the fight just didnt look to me like he wanted to beat DLH, it looked like he wanted to take little risk in there make it to the finish line and pray like hell the judges are from Vegas.
That attitude of judging fights on "aggression" and who was against the ropes has got to stop. I mean, Floyd Mayweather was making his debut at the 154 pounds category. He was 150 (4 pounds below) on the scales and we all know Oscar whoops to 170+ overnight. You can't be serious and judge that fight fairly if you judge it on that so called aggression bcause Floyd couldn't possibly be the aggressor.
If this second fight takes place at the 147 category (which i doubt since Oscar already showed less power than he can show at 150) then you can do that.
What i want to see is a better faster Oscar. Don't forget Floyd is already 31 and Oscar is 35, neither are spring chickens SO STOP ACTING LIKE IT.
Actually we can't complain. What kind of main events have we seen recently? What the age differences in lets say Calzaghe and Hopkins? How about Casamayor and Katsidis? How about Cotto and Mosley? But when Oscar and Floyd fight some people cry Floyd is preying on the old. Yes, Oscar is no longer in his prime but NEITHER IS FLOYD. If you think he is go see some of his jww fights. It is visible.
im not a floyd groupie but those judges are some of the most expiereinced judges... yes you cherry-picked some bad decisions but i can easily post twice or more the amount of reasonable decisions theyve had (though i wont bother)
judges are supposed to get fights right....and THOSE 2 CARDS ARE OF THE WORST 2 SCORECARDS IN HISTORY....im just saying if anyone was rigged i would suspect them....and they deserve 0 respect for thoSe awful cards regardless of what tehyve done before or after IMO...
and im not even saying oscar won btw, i had it 115-114 or 113 for floyd.... but to think it was beyond reason for de la hoya to get that decision is just stupid.....
floyboyz ignoring this??

the judges who gave it to floyd have worse record than the judge who gave it to oscar.....
chuck giampa and his inexplicable card on taylor vs chavez 1...
jerry roth and his 115-113 for trinidad over de la hoya...
so no it was not rigged....all 3 judges sucked....2 went with the status of mayweather, 1 with the likablilty of de la hoya...
floyboyz ignoring this??
dude please, I cant stand Floyd and wanted him to lose, FACT is he won. Dela tired late and wasnt busy enoough and Floyd won more rounds. Get out of your delusional brainwashed world Zooka :owned:
Well like I said the fight was close, it wasnt a clear win to think that is just nuts!!! it was close enough to go either way, and there are three judges that scored that fight, that have much more experience in the sport than you do. I think the scoring was right SD is about the most you could give for either fighter
It wouldnt suprise me, that fight was one round away from being a draw, and floyd clearly won that fight, he is still pissed about it till this day, in the run up to the hatton fight he did an interview and basically said he thought GBP tried to screw him and that he reckons they would try again if the hatton fight went the distance.
i think you are in the minority then, most had floyd clearly winning
but imagine if the judges went with the majority and it was a clear UD for floyd... would there be a cash-cow rematch?
Most that had Floyd winning were die hard Floyd fans and not fans of the sport itself, I am sorry but the fight was close and to deny that is just fucking crazy.
well i scored the first fight a draw...
so i dont believe it was rigged...
it was a tough fight for both (style wise)
and i think some rounds were hard to score due to the difference in styles...
lamply high the nail on the head when he said, "these rounds are hard to score; it comes down to, do you like floyd's tactical defense? or do you like oscar's come forward, high punch output fight?"...
it was tough since the styles contrasted so much.
