After watching the Floyd-Oscar replay 5 times Now

This is exactly what I said. Oscar was picking off tons of shots from Floyd. A good example of this, Everyone watch round 4 and see that Floyd only landed 7 to 9 punches total. And later they say he landed 20 something. I was like Woah. What the heck are they watching. Floyd did nothing to take the titles away from Dela Hoya. Even at this stage of Hoya's career, he still gave mayweather more than enough to win the fight in my eyes. People who watched it onced should watch it closely and not listen to the commentary. Floyd wasn't landing landing near 50% like the HBO commentary where thinking. Floyd accuracy my butt. Im not even a Oscar fan and I can tell that he won the fight on aggression and pressing the fight. Floyd did nothing to take the title away. Hope Floyd doesn't retire. He still has alot of fighters left to fight in order to be a true all time greatest. And at 30 years old, he is nowhere near out of his prime. He has atleast 2 to 3 years left in his body.I completely disagree with the punch stats the 1st 8 rounds of the fight. I trying my hardest to look for Floyd's countershots and all i saw was Oscar picking off many of Floyd's punches from rounds 1 thru 8. Neither fighter really landed solid shots up until that point,but Oscar was the aggressor and landed some body shots along the ropes .so you have to give him some of those close rounds. Floyd was not counterpunching as well as some think. Remember im just talking about the 1st 8 rounds.
I thought Oscar won rounds 2 ,3 ,4 ,6 ,8 with rounds 9 and 12 a tossup
Floyd - Rounds - 1 ,5 ,10 ,11 with rounds 9 and 12 a tossup
What Floyd did in rounds 10 and 11 ,that was not happening from round 1 thru 8. Oscar was picking off a lot of his punches,and Floyd also was not as aggressive those eariler rounds. Oscar wins this fight with ease had he jabbed more in rounds 9 ,10 ,11. Even if it was just 2 of those rounds,and he wins a decision.
Fans like myself would love to see Mosely vs Floyd, Paul Williams vs Floyd, Cotto vs Floyd. Atleast 2 of those fights will do. Then you can retire, but if Floyd is retiring for his kids and family, then go on and be happy.Comment

its obvious that Oscar is a better fighter but gassed out in the last quarter. gayweather was losing up until round 8 and in my eyes, still lost the fight.
the guy does nothing but run for 12 rounds and bore everyone to death.
He is the 150lb sven ottke with a couple of flashy shoulder rolls thrown in.
Why people think he's great is beyond me. He's mastered doing laps of a ring...big ****ing deal...the sooner he's gone the better, then i can get back to watching real fighters and not ******* who dont want to warComment

thank you lol
if ou cant see the counter shotthats prob
because you dont know what a counter punch is.
oscar wasnt picking nothing but his nose in
between rounds. his jab was effective the 5 times
a round he used it and his flurries that lasted 3 seconds
were okay being floyd csliped most of the punches
and there were rounds oscar didnt even land double digit
floyd won hands down tough fight but **** jordan didnt
score 50 points every game. even ali had tough nights
**** floyd had a tough night with a game trying his best
to win top pound for pound champ of our era. and floyd
still won damnComment
