    DH ran the last 3 rounds.

    Dh actually won the ninth but lost the last 3 rounds.

    seldom will you get an honest oscar opinion on this board, hes just to successful for his own good, and this inspires hate. this board has a thing for the unsavy, unsung heros. i.e mike Mccallum

    I don't even see how Tito won the 10th. Oscar began avoiding exchanges midway through the round but still won the round. Hell... the only reason he is given the 11th and 12th is by default. Tito himself didn't do anything worthwhile either.

    Oscar landed over 100 more punches than Tito, out boxed him, made him look like an fool. Oscar had Tilo bleeding, even Tito thought he had lost, but Don King saved him.

    I thought it was actually a close fight.
    Tito won 10,11,12


    As far as I remember rounds 1,2,4 and 6 were close.

    The fight was a mismatch. Gill Clancy told Oscar to just set on his lead. However, Don King's judges were in control. As Hopkins said, Oscar gave him the blueprint for beating Tito.

    Not a close fight at all. Any round that Tito did anything resembling an offensive output everyone wants to act like it was a close round. Tito was completely ineffective all night long.

    That is just not true.

    When I watched it the first time, I felt it should have been a CLOSE DH victory(by a poin t or two) or a draw. Now, 2 of the 3 judges saw it a close fight for trindidad so I see no robbery

    Trindidad won rounds 10,11 and 12 convincingly. Rounds 1,2,4 and 6 were close. Keep in mind that the agrressor throughout the fight has been Trinidad.

    No. Just no.:lol: Honestly man, I would watch it again if I was you. Don't give Tito rounds just because he did slightly better than other rounds. Give the rounds to the guy who actually won the round. You will NEVER find 6 or 7 rounds to give to Tito in any legit scoring fashion.

    115-114. 6-5-1. The first was a draw. Oscar won 2-4, and 6 and 8. Trinidad won rounds 5, 7, and swept 9-12, because of OScar's cowardice. Oscar fought that night about as gay as Wlad did against Sultan.

    I can't take your scorecard seriously. You scored the first 3 rounds of Wlad vs Peter for Sam Peter.:lol:

    I like Whitaker better than DLH but the truth is... to call this a robbery is disgraceful, it was a very close fight that could have gone either way, nobody won it clearly & quite frankly no-one deserved their hand raised.

    Whitaker showed better accuracy & defence but just plain didnt do enough throughout... DLH was aggressive & busier but never pushed the fight at all despite being the bigger, stronger, younger man.

    Pernell was too negative & Oscar was too reckless, content with flurrying to close rds rather than impose his size.

    There is nothing more to discuss here, both have had better nights & it was a very close & hard to score fight.

    The end !

    Listen dick-breath.....

    The judges scorecards were ****ed up, they were likely corrupt but the fight itself was a close fight so whoever got the verdict should be grateful & whoever didnt should accept it & move on.

    If you won't call DLH-Tito a robbery, then there is NO fight that you can call a robbery. That was the most nakedly corrupt BS I think I've ever seen in boxing except maybe De La Cruz - Casa.
