april 12th marks the 12th anniversary of the dlh v whitaker bout. it should start some fresh debating on the subject
I thought DeLaHoya deserved the victory over Whitaker. He was a little busier and seemed to outwork the Pea just a bit.
Had it by a point for Sweet Pea myself. Clear rounds imo were: Whitaker: 1,5,9,11 DLH: 2,3,8,12 Contested rounds were 4,6,7 and 10 I gave DLH round 4 and Whitaker rounds 6 and 10. Called round 7 even. Depending on what you like you could probably have it a 4 point fight either way. Any wider and it's plain bias. I'm still pissed off that there wasn't a rematch, though Whitaker only really has himself to blame for becoming addicted to coke and passing up the twilight of his career.
