By Bill Calogero - The Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Oscar De La Hoya fight was a great one. It actually lived up to all of the pre-fight hype, but I for one believe the decision was wrong. The fight was a draw. It’s that simple. [details]

it shouldn't been unanimous-mayweather -
The fight was scored correctly by two judges one was fooled by the pro de la hoya crowd.You Mr. Calogero need to learn how to score fights. Floyd Sr's comment was based on an amature points systems talking about punches in bunches to bad for him this is professional prize fighting and the scoring criteria is based on clean punching, effective aggressiveness, ring generalship and defense. Maybe if Oscar landed a lot more of those punches in bunches he would of won and maybe if is agressiveness was used more instead of 4 or 5 rounds he would have gotten a draw. To bad for him he didnt do enough, and all the major boxing writers and experts tend to agree on that.Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View PostComment

That was one of the worst articles ive read.Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View Post
I disagree with almost everything it says...why? Because judging a fight is very subjective and therefore hardly ever is there a 'wrong' decision, just varying opinions and points of view.
Its that simple!

Good point. However I scored the fight for De La Hoya, and I am no ****ing De La Hoya fan believe me. Although neither fighter really landed any telling blows, I thought De La Hoya landed more. I mean Floyd was on his bike the whole night, he was flicking his jab and throwing a few counters. If you watch round 3, you will notice that virtually all Floyds punches hit glove.Originally posted by Bobby Pazuzu View PostThat was one of the worst articles ive read.

Mayweather was never really in trouble, but there is no way he did enough to win that fight. People who are saying it should have been unanimous really need to watch the fight closely. It is scored round by round and De La Hoya won more rounds in that fight.Comment

I have to watch the fight again to score it. It was a close fight. I think Lederman gaves some early rounds to Mayweather that I would have scored for De La Hoya.Comment

De La Hoya landed nothing outside of flurries, which he threw once every 1:30. Sorry, only Sugar Ray Leonard wins a fight that way.
You mention round 3, what about the other 11 rounds in the fight? One round counts for one round, be it the first, third, or twelfth.
You scored it round by round, as did BOXING EXPERTS WHO WERE RINGSIDE, and every single one I've seen thus far (besides this clown, who never mentioned if he was ring side), has scored it for Mayweather. Shoot, even Doug Fischer had Mayweather winning, and he HATES Mayweather.
Sorry, the only way this fight is not a UD for Mayweather is if you listen to the pro-De La Hoya crowd, who got as excited for flurries of slaps and misses, as they did for actual scoring punches, or you jsut outright don't like Mayweather.
Name me the 7 rounds De La Hoya won and please, don't equate the first 15 seconds and last 30 seconds of a round to winning it. Oscar was stagnant for 2 minutes a round.Comment

I think the judges were scared to give out a draw on such a big fight. i'm sure alot of people would've felt they waisted their $$$. The fight looked close, very close. I gave it to the person who controlled the fight. DLHComment
