    I gave the fight to DLH on the night and ive never watched it since .

    It was a pretty similar fight in my mind to Castillo Mayweather 1 , in that i didnt think Floyd done enough offensiveley to take the rounds the judges gave him , however in the JLC fight it was a bit more one sided to Castillo than i saw it for Oscar , hence Castillo did seem to be outworking Floyd and landing more cleaner shots than Floyd too , whereas largely DLH was just outworking Floyd until late on .

    I have watched and scored the fight on 3 seperate occasions. I gave the fight to Mayweather Jr. everytime 9 rounds to 3. 8-4 Mayweather is acceptable, anything closer than that is bias.

    Oscar clearly won because he landed more punches than Floyd. Floyd just looked good because he is defensive but he rarely throws a punch.

    PUNCH STATS: De La Hoya landed 122 of 587 total punches (21%) to 207 of 481 (43%) for Mayweather. De La Hoya was also busier but less accurate with his power punches, landing 82 of 341 (24%) to 138 of 241 power punches (57%) for Mayweather.

    Anyone who says that DLH won or that the fight was close either didn't watch the fight or doesn't understand the sport.

    I think I had Floyd winning by three or four rounds.

    That wasn't the question. Typical Floyd-hating answer.

    Take away Manny Steward's commentary and this "jab" wouldn't even be talked about. I saw one round where DLH used his jab effectively and that round was a toss up.

    Mayweather won at least 3 of the first 4 rounds and you could argue all 4 so this "DLH stopped jabbing" analysis is complete horse****.

    I do think it was competitive early with Oscar's jab, though I think Floyd fought the wrong fight. But I mean the question was who do you think won, and instead of a simple answer we get 'Was De La Hoya would have won if he carried on jabbing'.
