    The first fight was no one sided. The first fight Oscar clearly won 4 of the first 6 and one of the last 6. 7-5 Mosley. Close, even the twelfth was close but definitely clear.

    When I watched the rematch again (without scoring it again) it did look like Shane could have taken it 8-4. I really can't see how people could think Oscar won that fight.

    I would agree with that, 8-4 for Shane in the first, likewise for Oscar in the second.

    A lot of people use their anti-Hoya bias on this subject, and also the 'leave Shane alone' thing.....

    Shame really.

    I have always liked both guys, other than the past two years or so, don't have a problem with Oscar.

    I don't think Oscar and Shane will end up fighting in the future, too much business made and the fact that Shane's beat him twice.

    They should put an asterisk next to his 2nd win over Oscar

    The 2nd should be an NC

    That would be unlikley. Honestly, Oscar should have won that fight. I had Oscar ahead 8-4. Roids sure as hell didn't help Mosley. I'll guess we'll see what the WBC does, but that doesn't mean the WBA will do the same thing.
