who won Dela Hoya v Whitaker ? such a difficult fight to score such close rounds to score i think that the biggest problem in this fight lies with the 10-8 round Dela Hoya got in the in the 3 nd round, it was an accidental clash of heads but it was ruled that a point should be taken from the uncut fighter regardless which is bull**** obviously ,however its down to discretion IMO wether u score that 10-8 0r 10-9 for Dela Hoya i think u have to score the fight on who u think won though so i dont think people should credit Oscar with a 10-8 cause of some bull**** rule
the other contentious issue was te 9th round where IMO Dela Hoya was winning the round but got caught of balance & his glove touch the canvas & it was ruled a knockdown , but can i still score the round for Dela Hoya because it was a round he was down in albeit it was a dubious knockdown but i thought he was winning the round prior to the Knockdown ,i think its only fair to score the round even given that i gave Whitaker the benefit of the doubt in the 4th round

9-10 10 -9
whitaker 5 rounds ,Dela Hoya 5 rounds
this all hinges on how u scored the 9 th round if u had Whitaker winning the round then it was a 10 -8 for Pernell ,the 3rd round was very close aswell i just went for Oscar very hard to score though ,the 6 th round i gave a draw i could nt find a winner although some people may have had Whitaker taking that round i would nt argue regardless ,dont forget i didnt deduct a point from Whitaker on my scorecard for the accidental butt however it was scored on the judges scorecards
all in all i would say niether man deserve to win this fight although if u gave it one way or the other there is always gonna be disagreements
