    Not to me they weren't. You might have a case for round 11, but it was simply a mauling, stalling, do-nothing round which I scored even because it was more a case of no one deserved it rather than anyone earning it.

    It was an even fight. It's not fair to say either man lost IMO.

    Whitaker gave Round 4 away, imo. I basically scored it to Oscar by default.

    Close fight, no argument from me anyway. But I will say Oscar being an Olympic champ and a media darling may have swayed the judges just a little.

    I would agree with this. I think Quartey beat him though.

    From that clip it's pretty clear to see who the crowd and Jim Lampley wanted to win
