    a guy coming forward whiffing for long stretches isn't being effectively aggressive either and yet that's what Shane did

      I only watched it once, live, with the commentary from the international broadcast, so I was probably swayed by Bontempo and Fischer's commentary since I thought Mora won, but I can't inflict self-torture on myself by watching it again (with the sound off) to see who really won.
      and I think a lot of US people were swayed by Lamps

      I can't tell I covered it for the site and to be honest I really hesitate when I think about watching it again

        I didnt score the fight at all. I couldnt watch it all I kept FFWDing. I watch live boxing any chance I can Im not one of these guys who turns off every fight. What Mora did was disgusting, he ruined his big chance. I rate Mosley swinging and missing much higher than I rate Mora running in circles.

          lol i watched it twice....first time on HBO with english commentary, and i didnt even score it because it was dreadful......but i wasnt surprised by the draw....it looked to me like mora was trying to steal the fight with the more showy punches and making mosley look bad in most rounds...but he looked bad himself punching way out of range, so i figured the judges would have it close.....and it was obvious how bias Lamps and Larry were......

          Then i watched it on Televisa.........and it was actually not as dreadful, not having to listen to one sided commentary helped....even if the televisa announcers suck...they also had mora winning clearly...


          i think its only people who watched on HBO and take CompuBox seriously that think Mosley won to be honest....

          that said, im glad Mora didnt win, like i said before....


          funny how all the media and fans are always *****ing about Amateur Boxing's system, but look forward to and quote CompuBox.........
