    Forbes doing better, but halfway through Oscar takes over again.
    One minute left and Oscar lands some hard punches.
    Another Oscar round.

    99 - 91 Oscar

    Forbes is a trooper despite being about 4 levels below Oscar on the talent level.

    I don't think this version of Oscar can beat Floyd but...we got a whole summer to go on that one.

    What does 33-5 have to do with anything? Forbes has been in with everybody and has always been the little guy. ODLH picked him because he knew that Forbes has never been kayoed and he would get some good rounds in.

    Forbes is ready to go an ODH is not fading like he used too and this fight is at a faster pace then the Mayweather fight.

    Round Eleven -- Touch gloves to start. Forbes jabs bouncing off gloves. DLH misses with a right. Trade jabs. Forbes one-two blocked. DLH jab working well again. Pace slowing. Combo from Forbes mostly misses, then to body. Forbes lands a right. Little low from Forbes. DLH combo mostly blocked. Jab still the best punch in the fight. Forbes in the corner taking shots, several blocked. Posturing to end the round. DLH again.

    This is correct. I'm changing my first round score to even.

    A fight with Cotto and ODLH would be great.

    1 minute in, Forbes hitting most here.
    Trading bodyshots in the middle of the round.
    Fotrbes been the busy fighter, but Oscar finishes big.
    I'll give it to Forbes.

    108 - 100 Oscar

    Forbes is a damn good boxer but he just has no power, and then Oscar is at least 3 weight classes bigger. I suppose the inevitable is happening

    Dude.

    Look at Oscar's face, tells the story. Mayweather would analyze this guy and rip him a whole new one in six rounds. Oscar's punches have had VERY little snap, he is wasting his jabs and missing when he has Forbes on the ropes. This fight is as slow paced as Calzaghe/Hopkins and they're three divisions lower.

    DLH should have had this in his pocket via TKO by now.

    Forbes almost pulled a Whitaker there to close the 11th.
