    Anyone who had Mayorga up needs to learn how to score a fight. Simple as that.

    Many people who had it for Sugar had it by a point...a point the other way is within complete reason...that's why there are 3 judges, they don't expect anyone to agree.

    Nope. No way ANYONE should have Mayorga up or tied. It really is as simple as that. Mayorga wasn't landing the better punches, wasn't landing more consistently, and wasn't landing more period.

    Shane Mosley was winning ... but it didn't matter anyway because I knew that Mosley was going to knock him out ... Mayorga showed hurt and frustration early on during the fight ... I think that Mosley knew that and that led to the last second KO ...

    That's unfortunate that you only have room for one perspective...all I can say is that it's a good thing there are 3 judges, that way they can each be as narrow minded as they want...and we have finality in their lack of resolution...one of the things that makes the sport different.

    Mayorga had his moments but never dominated Mosley and when he had Mosley hurt and frustrated, he didn't capitolize.

    I had Mosley up by atleast 3 rounds. People who had Mayorga up going into the 12th need to learn how to score effective aggression and punching.

    Mosley hurt Mayorga several times consistantly ... it wasn't in spurts or in moments ... it was most times when he landed. After the 4th round Mosley was having his way with Mayorga and you could see that he was getting tired.

    One thing is for sure is that Mosley is not on the level of a Floyd Mayweather.

    Regardless..If the fight had went to the final bell Mosley would have been a clear winner on the judges cards.

    Only one had Mayorga up going in the 12th, he had him up by one. One other had Shane up by one and another had Shane up by 4 or 5 I think.

    Give Shane 10-7 for the 12th he wraps it up clearly via a UD.
