To be perfectly clear, I am not a mayweather "Fan". I think he is extremely ****y and I don't particularily like that in a fighter. My dude is Miguel Cotto (partly because I am Puerto Rican) but also because he just doesn't care who he is fighting. He'll fight everyone and give them one hell of a fight every time and he's humble.
Ok with that out of the way, Mayweather is the best in world. I don't like him but I can still admit that he is the best, you just have to put your personal preference aside and look at the facts. Sure, his record doesn't show him as fighting the best of the best but be real, he'd obviously still beat anyone he's ducking.
The point is this. Boxing is not just about smoking some dude in the head with your best punch, its about hitting and making the other guy miss. Floyd made Oscar miss the whole night, even in his flurries (not including when oscar just went crazy hooking his body when they were clinched), Oscar still missed most of his punches. Max Kellerman made the right call because he keeps it real. Watch the fight without your personal preferences and you'll realize the split decision call was a joke. It was unanimous Mayweather.
