    The Judges had it 8-4 Floyd, 7-5 Floyd, and 7-5 Oscar. It was a split decision. None of the judges or media had it 9-3 for Floyd.

    I have watched it 4 times and come up with a draw each time. I can certainly understand a one point differential each way, as found by the judges.

    You appear to be the one who needs to learn how to score a fight.

    :lol::rofl
    Are you serious? That fight was 9-3 or 8-4 at worst it was an easy fight to score if you know boxing. Oscars aggressiveness was ineffective pbf landed the cleaner and harder shots and oscar faded down the stretch on cue. That bought and paid for judge who scored the fight for oscar is a disgrace he also scored a round in that fight that was a clear round for pbf for oscar. Only a fool oscar***ual pbf hater or all 3 would score that fight for oscar or think it was close. You need to watch the fight and learn how to score one.

    Check out the compubox stats. 207 at 43% landed for Floyd to 122 at 21% for Oscar. 138 power punches at 57% to 82 at 24% for Oscar.

    If you scored that fight a draw then I will make sure to never read anything you post about a scorecard ever again. Average press row scorecard was 116-112 for Floyd with scores ranging from 9-2-1 Floyd (only twice) to 8-4 Oscar (also only twice). There were six 9-3 cards for Floyd and significantly more 8-4 Floyd scores than there were 7-5 Oscar scores.

    Fight was 9-3 or 8-4 Floyd, no questions asked. Don't let the crowd sway you next time you watch it. Score for punches landed.

    Oscar was younger by two year, had fewer fights and a generally easier career when they met.

    I watched it a couple of times with different commentary, it is scary how much the commentary can influence your scoring.

    Commentary 1 (think it was Colonel somebody)- i scored it a draw or round to Floyd

    Commentary 2 (HBO) - i scored it 8-4 to floyd.

    lol sure I'm a hater. Cos im not sucking floyds **** like you?

    I repeat, floyds own dad scored it for Oscar. And get your facts right, Floyd was not working for Oscar, Oscar fired his ass for Roach.

    And another fact, the judges had it close, so did the media, in fact split decision.

    It was very close.

    Floyd deserved the nod but by no more than 7-5 at best.

    Watch rounds 2,3,4,6,7,8 and tell me which of them Floyd won.

    If it had ended at the end of the eighth, Floyd would have lost a fairly wide decision.

    Oscar couldn't keep it going in the last four rounds.



    Close fight.

    SD for Floyd was a fair decision.
