    No - he robbed the fans against Tito.

    And beating Mosley at 154 isn't that impressive. Especially since Shane hadn't won a fight in two years and wasn't a pound for pounder at the time.

    It's funny how a load of pricks who come on here only care about how over rated or how **** all of these champions are. If any of these pricks had boxed themselves they would not go on like that.

    If Mayweather had faced Oscar's level of competition he'd of had a few losses by now. In fact I reckon a shot Oscar deserved the nod against Mayweather to be honest.

    A lot of knowledgeable fans think that. I know plenty about boxing. More the average person on here that's for sure.

    Sorry bud - anyone who thinks Oscar won that fight is either just a hater or a clown. Maybe dumb. Pick one.

    Oscar is NOT overrated at all. This comes from PR boxing fan.
    Well managed early in his career, yes but so was PBF....

    This is the problem sometimes.. people just look at a fight and think oh i thin oscar won that maybe.. when you sit down and score a fight round by round its different. Floyd won this fight by about 3 or 4 rounds. Is oscar overrated? No i don't think so, everyone seems to know his level..

    He's the only fighter who can run (not box, literally run) for multiple rounds and have stans claim he was "robbed."
