    the tito fight for sure, tito got pummeled for 10 rounds and tripped over his own feet in the last 2, looked like a desperate beaten fighter trying to ko oscar.

    DLH/Sturm pissed me off as a boxing fan. You knew after the 12th round that Sturm wasnt getting the decision. Everybody knew that. Nothing was going to stop the mega fight between DLH/Hopkins later in the year. It seemed like some staged WWF **** with HBO flipping to Hopkins in the locker room praying for DLH to get the gift. It infuriated me as boxing fan. It made boxing to be sometype of joke.

    Sturm 9-3 on my card. 8-4 is the best you could have scored it for DLH.

    DLH vs Tito was a rather dull fight because one creampuff didn't want to get hit, and the other fighter wasn't able to run as fast as the other one.

    DLH vs Strum was a fight that had an unknown German fighter peppering the face of a flabby, out-of-shape media darling, who then got a pay day only to QUIT from a slapping rib shot. Like Don King would have said, "Only in America!!"

    I think they were about the same. IMO in both cases we had a guy that was a clear winner that did not get the decision. I think that Oscar should have won by a wider margin vs Tito as I have trouble finding even 4 rounds to give to Tito but I still think that the judges should have been able to get the Sturm fight right.

    DLH W115-113 Tito and Sturm W116-112 for me...

    DLH-Tito became close as Oscar did nothing in the 2nd half of the fight... still I feel DLH was the better man, but it was a close fight... robbery? Well, it depends what you call a robbery... DLH-Mosley II was just as close as DLH-Tito and I feel that the Mosley fight is more of a robbery...

    Sturm-DLH never became close, Oscar was getting farther and farther from victory and all he could do is make a few rounds close. He won close rounds, Sturm won clear rounds.

    Rescoring a fight is a great think. Many on ESB changed their mind for example in rescoring the Margarito-Clottey fight... Do it this time as well! Sturm-DLH is one of the most horrible outcomes ever because DLH made history on that night by becoming a champ in the 6th division and I can't find ONE, I mean ONE expert who gave it to DLH... Some thought Mosley pulled it off in the 2nd fight, some think Tito was the better man, some say Quartey and Whitaker did enough to win, others say not. But I can't find ONE expert whose opinion I respect who gave it to DLH...

    The Sturm vs De la Hoya fight was the bigger robbery of the two. With that fight, you can have someone who has never watched boxing in their life and doesn't know the rules, to tell you who won and got the best of whom.
