    I had whitaker winning rounds 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,11 for whitaker CLEARLY (that's 8 rounds)

    I had Chavez winning rounds 9 and 12 closely.

    Rounds 5 and 10 were close rounds that I gave to whitaker.

    I am shocked this was a draw.

    First, I think the announcers WERE BLATANTLY favoriting chavez early. Chavez missed almost all his power shots. Whitaker had 10+ headsnapping punches almost every round.



    118-110 i had it and will stand by it. Any1 else have it for whitaker this wide?

    Rounds 1 and 2 should have been Chavez's or at the very least regarded as close and round 10 was a whitewash for Whitaker. Otherwise a decent card.

    I know Al Bernstein has it 118-110 for Whitaker. I think he gave Chavez rounds 1 and 5.

    i had it 9 to 3 whitaker 117-111
    i thought 4 rounds were close and i gave 3 of those 4 to whitaker
    if you gave those all to chavez it would be a draw

    Think you may have the fight a little to wide, not watched it in ages but think i had it a little tighter about 116-112 to pea, whitaker should have won though without doubt

    For DLH-Whitaker, I thought DLH won it clearly, so coming into watching this fight I thought I might end up giving chavez the decision.

    HOWEVER, whitaker's jab was unbelievable. They were Sugar Ray Robinson jabs; jabs with bad intentions...Whitaker's jabbing vs DLH was less accurate and more of taps (Oscar's head didn't snap back at all from his jabs...Chavez's head snapped back from jabs 100+ times it felt like)

    If you rewatch the DH-Whitaker closely, you will notice that DH landed very few punches on Whitaker and I do not care what those punchstats said. The only punch that was really effective and landed consistently was the Whitaker jab even as you rightfully said did not land hard.

    Whitaker - Chavez: Whitaker won it, everything from 115-113 to 118-110 is possible.

    Whitaker should of have being penalized for low blows or fighting dirty.

    Then Chavez should have been disqualified for the very same reason.

    What could make anyone score it for Chavez ?

    It way clearly Pernell's fight from the very first second.

    That's what I want to know. Pernell Whitaker had a case for every single round. Chavez has a case for no more than 4 IMO.
