Finally watched it. I only watched it once and wrote my round score down before the compubox numbers popped up. 115-113 for Floyd. I had rounds 3, 5, 7, 8 and 12 as really close rounds that were tough to score, but I gave Floyd the edge in 3, 5 and 8, and I gave Oscar 7 and 12. Anyone who thinks either fighter was dominated is crazy. Floyd was obviously the better fighter in rounds 10 and 11, when Oscar looked gassed, but the rest of the fight was extremely close. People are not giving Oscar's D enough credit. He was catching a lot of Floyd's jabs with the inside of his gloves, and blocked a lot of Floyd's hooks. I think the compubox numbers were way off. Oscar was blocking a high percentage of Floyd's shots, even in rounds 10 and 11. In 10 and 11, Floyd started landing a bit more, but won basically on activity, because Oscar was gassed and didn't throw anything. Both guys had a lot of trouble finding their mark, and the close rounds I had to score based on activity, because neither was really landing anything. I had the fight even after 8 rounds, and then Oscar got tired and Floyd took 3 rounds straight, with round 9 being pretty close, but edge to Floyd. They should stop showing the compubox numbers at the end of the rounds.
Floyd Rds 1, 3*, 5*, 8*, 9, 10, 11
Oscar Rds 2, 4, 6, 7*, 12*
* - marks the rounds I found difficult to scoreComment

Floyd lovers make me laugh out loud. What about running around the ring with your tail between your legs and getting all your bunches blocked by a glove makes you think he won the fight. Even Floyds old man thinks Oscar won, and I didnt see Oscars eye poppin out. I gave this 115-113 Oscar
losing by cards, and getting wooped are different.Comment

The people saying Oscar got whooped are crazy. Maybe they're dissappointed that Floyd didn't blow him out and didn't look invincible or like the all time greatest fighter they think he is? That said, I think it's pretty hard to score the fight for Oscar. The whole fight was extremely close, except for rds 10, 11, which were obvious Floyd rounds. If you give those two rounds to FLoyd, which everyone should, it's pretty hard to argue that Oscar won 7 of the remaining 10 rounds, because they were all very close.Comment

Maybe you enjoy fights where barely any punches land for either fighter. Or where fighters make ridiculous amounts of money to give us a dance lesson... Terrible display of boxing. Cong**** Oscar and Floyd, please retire we don't need fighters like them who only fight for money and not pride. The first undercard is what we call boxing... The main-draw was just a dancing contest.Comment

Why was the fight a disgrace? It was a chess match fight, between two guys that showed great defence. Not a lot of leather landed cleanly by either guy, or many big punches to note, but quality fighting by both guys. What's the problem?Comment

He likes brawls.
Like you said, it was a world-class boxing chess-match between two elite boxers.Comment
