    What a great fight! Really enjoyed watching it for the third time.

    Was wondering how ESB members scored it.

    I had it 115-113 for Mosley. On my card, if DLH had won the last round, it would have been a draw.

    both did some soul searching. close but clear win for mosley and the rematch was close also more of a chess match but oscar won it.

    Mosley won clearly. DLH looked really good physically, sharp with his punches, fluid combos, etc...but Mosley looked even better. DLH didn't have the right tactics, maybe being stung by the criticism of the Trinidad fight or because Mosley had less experience at WW and he figured he'd overpower him. DLH fought a smarter fight the next time around.

    Good point. That's what I think cost him this fight.

    I had it 115-113 too. Close but clear, the 12th round sealed it.

    First time i saw it i scored it for Mosley by 1 point. Watched the replay a couple years later and i remember scoring it a draw. People act like this was a decisive win when really it was razor close or possibly even.

    Definitely not the same Mosley that fought Mayweather.If the Mosley that fought Delahoya back then fought Mayweather that fight would have been a lot closer.

    Close but clear for Mosely.

    Mosely won that fight, anyone that even scores this fight a draw needs glasses.

    For the record - I thought DLH won the 2nd fight clearly.

    12th round won it for Sugar. Mosley won the majority of the championship rounds, and that was the difference in the fight.

    I felt the 12th round clinched it for Sugar. If Oscar wins round 12, I think it ends in a draw.

    Very close but it was clear I think, no need for a SD. I think OScar won the second one which was weird considering it was a UD for shane.

    Possibly more than probably.

    Floyd & Pac are better p4p fighters regardless, if they did beat FMJ or Pac then it would be the size more than the ability that enabled them to do it IMO.
