I think he gave Tito a bloody nose in the first round! Watch round nine, its my favorite, because he makes Tito look like a c level fighter. Foreman said that oscar gave the fight and he could have easily knocked out tito. Foreman also believed that in the rematch tito would get knocked out.

Anyone who thinks Tito won that fight is either PR or blind....
I was in a room full of puertoricans and we bet money, over $500 and when the fight was over before the decision was read, they were getting their money together to give to me...no bull****.
When they announced Tito as the winner, I don't know who was more surprised, Tito or them. Some of them even said that I didn't have to pay them.
It's ok, Oscar did take rounds off and was fighting very cautiously in the last 3-4 rounds. ****** mistake on his part and it was something he learned from. I honestly think he gave Tito too much respect just like Bernard Hopkins did and could have KO'd him in that fight.
I'm Mexican but I don't let my loyalty blind me from thinking JCC drew with Whitaker, it was Whitaker all the way.
Let the dreamers dream, it was an L on Oscars resume and it will remain so in the minds of the delusional.Last edited by Cuauhtémoc1520; 08-11-2009, 03:53 PM.Comment

i think ppl go a bit overboard when talking about how badly oscar beat tito early on. yes he was clearly ahead but its not like he swept the first 8 rounds clearly. these exact rounds im just making up, dont really remember any specific rounds cuz i havent watched it in a whole.. but if we say oscar won the first 3,a dn the 4th was close, judges would most likely give it to tito, cuz nobody wants to score a shut out in a fight this big. we see it all the time in fights that shouldve been shut outs judges find a way to give one or two rounds to the loser. then ofcourse he threw away the late rounds. in the end it was close and couldve gon eighter way imo. unlike DLHs fights with whitaker, quartey and sturm. i thought he clearly lost those fights so as far as decisions go DLH is still lucky no matter how u look at it.Comment

I agree with round 1 being an either-way round. I thought DLH won the 2nd although Tito did land a nice left hook, DLH did most of the better work in that round. Agreed with round 3, round 4 I thought could've gone either way. Tito landed the best shot of that round, a counter left hook upstairs, but DLH landed some nice jabs. Round 5 I gave to Oscar, I think that was the round when DLH landed that nice straight right and then left hook, and then Foreman goes "let me tell you, that hurt!". Agreed with the rest, except round 8. That was another close round and I gave that to Tito. DLH did some nice work early, Tito came on strong later, and landed a left hook to the face late in the round, but luckily for DLH he was pulling back.Round One - Tito (outworking Oscar, although could have gone either way)
Round Two - Tito (hits him with a great left hook and outworking Oscar, could have gone either way)
Round Three - Oscar (all the way)
Round Four - Oscar (all the way)
Round Five - Tito
Round Six - Oscar (all the way)
Round Seven - Oscar
Round Eight - Oscar
Round Nine - Oscar
Round Ten - Tito
Round Eleven - Tito
Round Twelve - Tito

The Quartey fight was pretty easy to score. DLH finished strong but did so little for most of the middle rounds and was lucky to get the decision.i think ppl go a bit overboard when talking about how badly oscar beat tito early on. yes he was clearly ahead but its not like he swept the first 8 rounds clearly. these exact rounds im just making up, dont really remember any specific rounds cuz i havent watched it in a whole.. but if we say oscar won the first 3,a dn the 4th was close, judges would most likely give it to tito, cuz nobody wants to score a shut out in a fight this big. we see it all the time in fights that shouldve been shut outs judges find a way to give one or two rounds to the loser. then ofcourse he threw away the late rounds. in the end it was close and couldve gon eighter way imo. unlike DLHs fights with whitaker, quartey and sturm. i thought he clearly lost those fights so as far as decisions go DLH is still lucky no matter how u look at it.
I had no problem with DLH getting the nod against Whitaker, but 9-3 scorecards are rather ridiculous.Comment
