    lol at floyd having oscar wobbled. a few shots from floyd stopped oscar in his tracks but at no point was oscar shaken from a punch of floyds. and he did land the left hook, be it only 1 and in the final seconds of the 12th but it landed. everyone who fights floyd has to bully him or rush. either way its better for him with his counters and good timing. which is y the only punch you should be throwing the first half of the fight is the jab.

    Oscar had a good gameplan with his jab early on but PBF took it away and won the championship rounds. I had it 8-4 PBF.

    I had it 115-113 for De La Hoya, he landed the cleaner harder shots he was the agressor and he blocked the majority of Floyds shots, **** Compu Box that **** was fixed, listen to Merchant from round 2-6 he discusses how Floyd was not getting through with anything clean, from 6-10 Manny Stewart says the same thing Floyd wasnt getting through with anything really clean, there you have 8 rounds of which both Merchant and Stewart who have been around this sport alot longer than these Floyd boys, stating that Floyd wasnt as effective as Compu Box made him out to be.
    if Floyd really did land that many shots then why was there no marks on De La Hoyas face? why wasnt he swelling any? why didnt he have any redness? if you say that Oscar doesnt swell your a liar, and if Floyd really did land at that rate as Compu Box states, then with out any facial damage you know he isnt throwing the more effective harder shots, take a look at Floyds face after the fight, he was pretty busted up This was proof that Oscars shots did more damage than Floyds

    yes hoya did win the effective punches battle. but floyd would time him jumping in after he gave up on the jab. i had the fight for floyd because i knew they would give him the win on ring generalship and his pot shot flurries. but i could see it a draw easily. oscar did block a lot of shots and landed the clearer punches, floyd just made him look bad with his movement and the loss of the jab didnt help close the gap any.

    I didnt I based it on who won each round However when I break down why Oscar won the fight ALL of the Floyd supporters say Floyd landed at a highter rate, so with your statement there you cant use the machine right? its not a machine to let you know its a guy with a button, How do you know Floyd landed more did you personally count both fighters shots thrown and landed?
    I scored it for Oscar and I stand by that this is exactly the reason why Floyd isnt getting a rematch, becuase Oscar knows he won the fight there is no reason to reward a fighter another big purse because he got a bogus win. So Oscar hurt his pockets and I am glad he did, Floyd if he wants to make that money he needs to do it the way Oscar had to do it himself, he must fight everybody out there.
    So lets just see how bad he wants that money

    I agree with that. Hopkins is a gift to have in our generation. Years from now, long after his career is over, we're going to be talking about him as one of the top ten ATGs, especially depending on what he does tonight... which is why I'm so excited for it.
