Can a fighter really have laid out a blueprint if they lost?

Remember how they were saying that Mosley exposed Pac meanwhile he lost every single round.

Who said that?

Who said that?

I remember saying that Manny couldn't cut off the ring.

And all these years later, he still can't.

I dont see the point of this thread. Castillo already beat Floyd, so there is a blueprint. Just cos he was robbed against Floyd, doesnt mean it dont count.

People still think Oscar did something in the Floyd fight? All he did was throw punches and miss Floyd cleanly the entire fight.

Al lot of people have a great game plan but can't execute.

[b00g13man]

He did show a couple things though. That right hand he landed toward the end of the eleventh is the same one Mosley used in the second. Anyway, he lost a wide decision. Like Shane.

Indeed. That wasn't De La Hoya's "blueprint" though. "Not the night of the jab".

Hell according to ya'll everyone beat Floyd

[MrP4P]

The confusion lies in the way its usually worded

A fighter could lose a fight and still expose certain weakness in his opponents that other fighters were incapable of exploiting

Having the right gameplan, fighting the RIGHT fight, despite the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent, and having moments of success, is what some consider the "Blueprint"

It doesnt always work because every fighter is different but in theory, the answer to your question is yes IMO

[Box-Office]

Like a rough draft of the blue print, sure. The more talented guy who can execute it better can put the finishing touches.

[boliodogs]

Sure the can. They go into the ring with a well thought out battle plan. But no blueprint will work if the guy they are fighting is too good of fighter for them to defeat. The guy they are fighting has a battle plan too. He wants to win too. It comes down to who is the smarter more skilled fighter.
