    Was De La Hoya robbed against Trinidad??

    Seems like the vast majority of fans feel this way but can you make a case it was a close fight that could've gone either way?

    Did anyone here score the fight for Trinidad? I've heard many times that there is no way in hell that you can rationally score that fight for Tito.

    Forget the official judges. Can you make an unbiased argument that Tito won that fight?

        He mailed it in for the last several rounds. He did it to himself. That is a fight he could have won easily had he fought for all 12 rounds.

                  No, he gave away the last three rounds based on the sound advice of his cornerman, Gil Clancy.
                  "Just run around, you got the fight in the bag". Worst advice I've ever heard, besides some stocks
                  I've bought.

                    I can agree with this. Oscar blew the fight in the championship rounds.
