    Let me get this straight.

    So you admit that everyone (except you, ) thought Floyd won the fight pretty clearly.

    But here's the problem: if you truly lived by your conviction that Oscar won the fight, you would want to see a rematch. Sorry, a fighter getting "lucky" isn't a legitimate excuse for not having a rematch. In fact, shouldn't that be the optimal reason a rematch should occur in the first place?

    Conclusion: Deep down you know Floyd won the fight, even though I will probably never get you to admit it, which is the real reason why you don't want to see a rematch.

    None of us want to see a rematch, but the difference between you and the rest of us is, we all actually saw Floyd soundly beat Oscar, you claim you didn't.

    "Plain and basic common sense" doesn't translate to the glarring double-standards and hypocrisy in your post.

    Seriously, just think about it.

    Your excuse for not having a rematch, even though you thought Oscar luckily earned the decision, is "well he's going to lose the rematch anyway no one thinks the first fight was close". Isn't that the same tune a lot of delusional Mayweather fans use as to why Floyd shouldn't even bother fighting Cotto? Because, he's "just going to lose anyway".

    Plain and basic common sense, baby. Perhaps you could use a dose.
    nope, because I can recognize that no one else feels the way I do, and can decide that whats best for boxing is NO rematch.

    For example, say I was in the army but disagreed with the Iraq war. I might not "live my conviction(LMAO)" and refuse to fight, I would suck it up and move on without compromising my own beliefs for the good of others. In the same way, I dont verbally promote the rematch because it is bad for boxing, whether I think there is legit reason for a rematch or not(I dont, just because I know boxing and there is no way Oscar wins BASED ON HIS PERFORMANCE IN THAT FIGHT, not on faceless speculation like the Fraud-huggers use to say Cotto has no chance).

      You did not suck it up and move on by contuing to campaign that Oscar won even though the large majority thinks that Floyd won. The purpose of debates on a forum is that sometime when you get slapped with evidence like punchstats or just round by roud scoring or the fact that the fight was EASY to score compared to the Hopkins-calzaghe fight where you don't see any eye catching punches. Considering all of that a logical person might say "you know maybe I was wrong". You're not doing that and you got called on your bull****......so spare us the compromising your beliefs Bs.

        Punchstats were bull**** in the fight, cant comment on the Bhop fight since I saw it on sopcast(I thought BHOP won). I can continue to voice my opinion because it in and of itself does not DEMAND, even for arguments sake since I have no real influence over fights happening or not(althought I bet people inside boxing come here), a rematch. I have given my reasons for scoring that fight the way I did NUMEROUS times, if you think its "illogical" to hold to them, go suck your moms ****.
