    A little biased?

    Was DLH-Trinidad a controversial fight? I never saw it, but I'm asking it cause of this thing on the back of the package of these gloves I just bought.


    It says "Sugar" Shane Mosley

    Has his stats etc.

    At the bottom it says:

    "As Lightweight Champion, Shane was highly respected, defending his title 8 times, but he did not attain mainstream recognition until he fought WBC Welterweight Champion Oscar De La Hoya in my of 2000. De La Hoya was perhaps the most popular fighter in boxing, with only one controversial loss to Felix Trinidad. Mosley-De La Hoya was a 12 round war, but Mosley won a clear split decision."

    Oh and I never saw that fight either, so I dunno how it was either. Was it a war? I've heard many times that people thought DLH won against Mosley.


    The wording on the package does sound like whoever wrote it was being biased.

        I was 9 years old when Trinidad and DLH fought

        I actually saw it at my uncle's house but didn't really understand boxing yet. We were watching it outside, I WOULD'VE sat down but I was like nah, there are too many drunk people and I don't feel like being bothered.
