    Right, keep trying to convince yourself that Oscar won that fight.

    Floyd outboxed him, anyway you slice it.

    Floyd landed 80+ more punches
    Floyd landed ~60 more power punches
    Floyd had a higher connect percentage
    Floyd had a better defense
    Floyd controlled the pace of the fight with Ring Generalmanship.
    Floyd landed the harder punches
    Floyd landed the cleaner punches
    Floyd landed the more accurate, crispier punches.

    In every single aspect in which you judge a boxing match, Floyd won. There is no way in hell, you could of scored this fight for Oscar.

          Floyd won 8-4 easily, probably 9-3.
          Competitive preformance, but this fight was not close.

                  yup, i had 9-3 also.

                  Seriously how are people getting 115-113,

                  Some even had it a draw.

                  Cant see that at all.

                    I had it 115-113. I had a split for the first 8 rds, then Floyd took 9,10,11 and Oscar took 12. A number of rounds I thought were very close and difficult to score, but I gave most of them to Floyd. If I could find the paper I scored on, I'd be able to say which rounds exactly I gave in the first 8 and which ones I found tough. It's in another thread.


                    I think there are a lot of Oscar apologists trying to find reasons why he won or got the draw, and I think there are a lot of Floyd apologists stretching to find a reason why it was a wide margin victory. The truth is somewhere in the middle, and most likely 115-113 or 116-112.
