Did anyone score Forrest-Mosley II for Mosley?

[Fox McCloud]

I didn't think this fight was a clear enough win that it would be absurd for Mosley to get the decision. A lot of people seem to think that Forrest clearly won, but I was curious how many people thought Mosley won.

I thought Forrest beat him both times but the second time less decisively because in the first fight it was the first time I've seen
Shane rattled at all to that point.

I had Forrest winning but it was so hard to score with all the clinching and lack of action.

It was a very difficult fight to watch, it did little to enhance either fighter either way. I haven't scored it though.

I agree, they might as well not even of done it.

Mosley's game was to run in and clinch before Forrest could catch him at a distance and then try to flurry in close. It didn't work.

[Orion]

Absolutely, that fight was a mess i nearly forgot about it till the thread starter reminded me.

It was a terrible fight, and difficult to score, and I actually felt it was Forrest initiating alot of those clinches, and he drove Mosley nuts in doing so! I thought it was more so Vernon getting the better of Shane than clearly beating him.

I agree with every word of that. As much as I like Shane and don't like Forrest, Mosley didn't do enough to get his title back. A really, really awful fight.

It's funny because the prefight HBO vignette built it up as redemption for the third Sugar, following Leonard-Duran II and Robinson-Turpin II. Instead, Mosley showed he couldn't make the necessary adjustments and create offense against Forrest.
