    He just didn't land shiiit the entire fight. Nothing honestly. Defensively he was awesome, hard to tag, but Oscar was catching him as he was quick too.

    Whitaker would get tagged all round, but would have a moment of slickness and would do a dance and clown around, trying to win the crowd and judges.

    Shiiit didn't work on me. He lost and the judges thought so too.

    Take that slick shiiit out of here.
    If he didnt land ****, why was he the only fighter to score a knockdown? If he didnt land ****, how did he land more punches?

      Jay Gayzor just thinks the black guy won all the time. He thinks ***ing Ike beat Oscar too for ***s sake lol
      I agree with you on that.

        Don't pretend like you don't know what type of knockdown that was. Go see it again and learn how to score a fight.

        You were probably oohing and ahhing everytime Oscar missed, but then stayed mute when Oscar was grinding out Jabs and body punches.

        In the end, Oscar got the W according to THREE NON BIASED JUDGES.

        Now go give Jay Razor a kiss and tell him to stop the racism.

          Doesnt matter what kind of knockdown it was. A punch was thrown, landed and the person hit went down. Pretty simple actually.

            Oscar did pretty well vs Floyd actually...he didn't do that bad. 116-112 type of fight, that's better than most of Floyd opponents and that was at the end of Oscars career

              Always came up short against legitimate world level compeititors and got his ass beat 6 times.

              When you take into account his many gift decisions his L's would be double figures.

              His biggest achievement was sharing a ring with TBE.
              You are ******.

              A past his prime Oscar arguably beat a prime floyd.

              Oh and his greatest achievement was sharing the ring with guys like Chavez sr and Manny Pacquiao not that fairy *****boy Floyd.

                  The fight with Whitaker was close. It was not a robbery and could have gone either way. The judges favored Oscar's aggression over Pernell's ring generalship.

                  Personally, I thought Whitaker had done enough to win the fight but I can't blame the judges for scoring the fight the way they did because Whitaker spent the majority of the fight on his back foot and hardly threw any power punches.

                  In the eyes of the judges Whitaker simply didn't want it badly enough
