    Name every trainer of Oscar De La Hoya's professional career. See who can get that one.

    It was the first time the rounds weren't scored using fractions.

    Re. Nash v Clayton. British boxing did not have a "Knock Out Rule" at that time. If a boxer kayoed his opponent "The round would be scored 10-0 and the contest terminated". The Nash - Clayton fight had to be stopped as Clayton would loose on points even if he knocked out Nash. When going from half point score to full point score, the board has forgotten to change the other rule.

    Nope. I thought the points change came a year or two later. Looks like I need to brush up on my BBBC knowledge.

    Trained Oscar: Roach, Mayweather, Rivero, Nacho, and an early post-Olympics trainer I can't name? Still pissing myself at Conteh's avatar.
