    Especially when everyone knows DLH can hit hard if he trys, which makes it even worse.

    U act like if oscar was on ***** street, wasnt the case AT ALL, he got tagged and we could see it hurted him, that does not erase the 8 first rounds where he boxed mosley's ears off( maybe 7 outta 8) and I'm a HUGE mosley fan

    Of course it had it's effect. DLH was the only one who had the look of a stunned fighter in the fight. And that happened a few times. You're just more impressed by flash, not substance. YOu probably bought into DLH's "round stealing" flurries from the Sturm fight as well...

    Of course judges and people score jabs. But all jabs aren't equal, and a jab certainly isn't equal to a harder power punch.

    Obviously i know that, but DLH controlled the fight with his jabs, and Mosley didnt control a damn thing in the entire fight. How do you win a fight when clearly the other guy is making you do what he wants you to do in the ring, isnt that the point of the sweet science? DLH clearly outboxed and outlanded Mosley. It was a robbery.

    He didn't control the fight. He was being backed up while Shane pressed the fight for the most part.

    I've watched a bunch od DLH's flurries in slo-mo and they were fore the most part, pretty weak.

    It's funny how most at ringside and boxers in attendance, had Shane winning, but the FANS all seem to think it was DLH.

    I had it 7-5 to Mosley. The British commentators were very biased towards DLH too (they always are).

    Even Shane's dad was telling Mosley to not let DLH control the fight! He said it plain and clear on HBO, so if you have the fight go back and look at it. The reason why DLH was backing up was because he was counter-punching. He said that he would do that before the fight and he did it. Obviously DLH knew how not to fight Mosley so he fought completely different than the first fight, and he did enough to win, but was again burned by the judges.

    His dad also said he thoght Shane needed a KO since they did not believe they could win a close decision in Vegas v DLH. I don't need to go back, I heard what his dad said.

    Like I said, it's pretty split between who people thought won. Fans thought DLH won, judges and those at ringside had Shane winning. And I guess it also matters what people judge by. More punches landed vs. the harder punches.
