PBF DLH: how do you score it?

[boxing_pundit85]

hbo just replayed it, and i was amazed that i forgot that it was a very good fight, just not a great one. the general public didnt like it because most dont understand boxing. Obviously there was no consensus from the judges about how the rounds should be scored. I agreed with hbo and thought PBF won 116, 112, or 117 112 if the last one was even. I was just amazed that one of the judges gave oscar round 10, and i have no idea how anyone could score oscar winning unless they are too ****** to tell if a punch lands effectively or not. oscar probably hit floyd with about one good shot a round, while floyd averaged at least 4 very good shots a round. sorry for the rant, i am just pissed that it was a split decision when PBF clearly won the fight in my eyes and in the eyes of the hbo team.

I originally socred it a draw but I have since watched the fight several times and realise that I was being too generous to Oscar and that Mayweather won the fight but it was close.

[Wiley Hyena]

By rounds:
1. Floyd
2. Oscar
3. Oscar
4. Oscar
5. Floyd
6. Oscar
7. Oscar
8. Oscar (could have gone either way...I scored it for DLH for aggression)
9. Floyd
10. Floyd
11. Floyd
12. Floyd

6 rounds to 6. Floyd won the closing rounds so the split dec for Floyd was an accurate decision.

I had Floyd winning by three, but i had it dead even going into the 8th. Oscar staopped Jabbing for some crazy ass reason- floyd couldn't do **** but grin like a monkey whe oscar jabbed.

Floyd looked totally lost, but from the ninth on oscar pretty much just followed him around!

i guess for it to be close you have to value punches that partially land(which some judges do, or they have bad viewing angles), because it is obvious if you watch the fight more than once that oscar landed very few clean punches

so you just liked oscars punch output or what? 6 of the first 8 is a pretty unique scorecard.

Man...you really saw it Floyd's way, Dwiens. I wouldn't call you a nuthugger or anything, because I know you're trying to be reasonable.

It is difficult to tell if blocked shots have caused damage and I felt that alot of the time Mayweather was sitting back and absorbing shots without any real retaliation which simply isn't good enough in my book.
