The 90's was full of rematches, especially in the lower weight classes, where the second fight was extremely close. How did you call the following? Hoya/Mosley II Mosley/Wright II Forrest/Mayorga II Holyfield/Lewis II Rivera/Whitaker I and II
Hoya Mosley 2-Draw-six rounds apiece if I remember correctly (were there any deductions?) Wright winning pretty much as comprehensively as he did the first, adn I tried hard to give it to Shane (more out of a hatres of Winky's boredom style than through a nuthugging of Shane) Had Mayorga winning by two rounds, 115-113 (again a rough guesstimate, but I had Ricardo winning) Lewis winning. Haven't seen the final two fights to be honest. Should've done, but I haven't.
I don't think any of these are REALLY close other than Forrest-Mayorga. My cards: Oscar de la Hoya vs. Shane Mosley II: 117-114 De la Hoya Mosley taking rounds 8, 9 and 12.

Will put up some more cards from 90's rematches if I can think of them (even though half of these cards are actually from the 2000's ) :good

Hoya/Mosley II- was in 2003 I have never scored the fight round for round, but thought Mosley was doing the most damage when I viewed the fight Mosley/Wright II- was in 2004 I thought Mosley did better than the first, but still lost Forrest/Mayorga II-was in 2002 Mosley did better, but did not win Holyfield/Lewis II- Was much better than the first. Holyfield deserved a close loss this time, though he did much better. Rivera/Whitaker I and II - The first fight was probably a draw. I would have to go back and score it. The 2nd fight was competitive, but clearly Whitaker's.
