    Do you think the judging in DLH-Floyd I was rigged?

    Personally i can't see how someone couldve gave the fight to Oscar. I think once they realized how much money the fight was going to make they planted the seeds for a rematch and made it an SD

    People say DLH will fight Cotto only if he beats Floyd, but I have a feeling the judging will be rigged again, and the judges will make the fight close or even a draw to justify giving oscar a shot at cotto

    i think they were a little too sympathetic towards Oscar. Floyd schooled him on points.

      oscar always gets points for those gay flurries that the crowd thinks actually hurt his opponents.

        well i scored the first fight a draw...

        so i dont believe it was rigged...

        it was a tough fight for both (style wise)

        and i think some rounds were hard to score due to the difference in styles...

        lamply high the nail on the head when he said, "these rounds are hard to score; it comes down to, do you like floyd's tactical defense? or do you like oscar's come forward, high punch output fight?"...

        it was tough since the styles contrasted so much.

          the judges who gave it to floyd have worse record than the judge who gave it to oscar.....

          chuck giampa and his inexplicable card on taylor vs chavez 1...

          jerry roth and his 115-113 for trinidad over de la hoya...


          so no it was not rigged....all 3 judges ******....2 went with the status of mayweather, 1 with the likablilty of de la hoya...

            I thought so, I mean I had DLH winning the fight, it was close but I favor the aggressor and Floyd with his back on the ropes the most part of the fight just didnt look to me like he wanted to beat DLH, it looked like he wanted to take little risk in there make it to the finish line and pray like hell the judges are from Vegas.

              i think you are in the minority then, most had floyd clearly winning

              but imagine if the judges went with the majority and it was a clear UD for floyd... would there be a cash-cow rematch?

                Most that had Floyd winning were die hard Floyd fans and not fans of the sport itself, I am sorry but the fight was close and to deny that is just ****ing crazy.

                  The way Boxing judges score these days it's not surprising one of them could score it for De La Hoya. Not at all.

                    It wouldnt suprise me, that fight was one round away from being a draw, and floyd clearly won that fight, he is still pissed about it till this day, in the run up to the hatton fight he did an interview and basically said he thought GBP tried to screw him and that he reckons they would try again if the hatton fight went the distance.
