Can anyone explain how the **** did Trinidad get the W over Oscar???

Yes I had Tito winning 7-5, 115-113.

And, lets not forget HBO was was pro Oscar, Harold Ledderman who was a damn cheerleader for Oscar had it a draw. That fight was not a robbery by any means. And, yes Oscar made it close. But, there I also be believe Tito was catching up to him and Oscar started literally run cuz he was starting to get in survival mode.

You see the funny thing with this subject is that Oscar ran and did not landed anything but when Cotto starts running and outlanding his opponents some people do not even give him the rounds. For example Cotto cs Mosley, Cotto vs Clottey.

I had oscar winning the fight......... but he has only himself to blame for running the last 4 rounds of the fight....... There are no guarantees in boxing, so you have to do all that you can to assure victory...... running around the ring doesnt assure anything

Oscar was an idiot for doing nothing the last half of the fight. I don't understand how he just shut himself down and think he would still win the fight.

fuck it, Tito deserved the win.

[oc9979]

none of the judges saw De La Hoya win the fight.

Can someone explain to me how Oscar deserved anything other than an L. Had it been any other fighter who stopped fighting in round eight and began running, they would be crucified.

What was funny (even though I thought Oscar won) was that was the first time I really remember Mexicans really being for Oscar (atleast openly) and to fight like in the last third when he was in no danger was mind boggling.

If Oscar would have fought that fight properly one has to wonder how big he could have gotten (he got huge anyways).
