ps. WIN today,Look "Impressive" the Next Time....

 

I think beating DLH more clearly than anyone else (besides the Hopkins farce) as the smaller guy, will advantages in DLH's corner is impressive.

How was he unimpressive in making DLH look like a limited amateur.

Great performance by Floyd, who right this moment is the best fighter of his generation

 

Mosley beat Oscar better than this, IMO.

And I disagree on Floyd's standing in this generation, but thats a reeeeally subjective argument for another thread.

 

Add me please.

 

Guess everything isnt "fine and dandy" in the DLH world right now.::

 

Floyd Fired SOME Lead Rights (Clearly,Floyd was HOPING to Use his Pull Counter Over DeLa's Left Jab,but DeLa RARELY Used It),but he SEVERELY Underutilized his OWN Lead Left Hook...

Floyd Most Definitely COULD have been MUCH More Offensive, but he RESPECTED his BIGGER,STRONGER,HARDER Punching Opponent,Arguably Toooooooo Much...

Yet & Still,he CLEARLY Won the Fight...

he tried to use that lead hook in the first few rounds and it was being blocked for the most part. He found success by working off his own jab and landing lead rights later in the fight.

Floyd fought perfectly. He didn't open himself up to getting caught with a bomb, he fought controlled and took over in the late rounds. He respected DLH beause he was fighting Oscar fucking De La Hoya. If he got out of line he knew what could happen.

Instead of losing he controlled every aspect of the fight for 12 rounds. it was a great performance

 

floyd was winning the fight, floyd isnt one to press the issue and go after you if he knows hes already winning the fight, if oscar wanted more output, he had to bring the fight to floyd and fight him in the middle of the ring, im not talking about holding people in the corner and smacking them on the side of their ass or trying to rally and steal rounds at the end, oscar wasnt willing to open up and get hit to score, he wanted to try to steal the fight by beating on floyds side and acting like he wanted to fight, because he knew if he tried to box with him hes gonna get schooled, he did what he had to do to make the fight as close as he could, but it didnt work

 

Floyd won. I couldn't make a case for a DLH win. 7-5.

 

I saw Mayweather beat DLH soundly

 

Mayweather took it 8-4 on my card

 

I had Floyd by two points. I could see some arguements here though as both fighters missed alot. I did think Oscar won every round he used the jab. Unfortunately he did it only five rounds out of twelve.

I think Max is a joke though, "Floyd completely dominated Oscar Tonight"????

"There a alot of MMA fighters with equal skill levels to Mayweather and De La Hoya." ALOT? Two of the best boxers in the sport

I cringe when I think this HBO signed this joker to a contract!(Tell me it isn't so)

 

It was a draw 6-6

Like I said I could see it going the other way too, Oscar was the agressor, landed more jabs and body shots, and we know the judges don't score body shots(neither do punch stats). I myself did have Mayweather winning a close one.

 

How can boxing ever become free of controversy, when people who work boxing messageboards professionally cannot score a fight. Seriously if you think Oscar won six or seven rounds, you shouldn´t bother trying again. Nobody is good at everything. :nono: :nono:

 

For a moderator, you're behaving like a child with this type of start. Perhaps you shouldn't be one. ::

 

It was interesting how both negated the other's lefthook.

I had Floyd winning 116-112, "however" I watched it in a room full of Mayweather fans, who cheered at every punch Floyd threw (which in itself is interesting because that's how fights usually go for Oscar).

With that said, Oscar blocked a TON of shots by Floyd. Floyd landed clean shots down the stretch, but Oscar's jab (when he threw it) was a hard, shotgun-type jamming jab which knocked Floyd off his pivot damn near everytime he threw it. Oscar's jab moved Floyd like Sturm's jab moved him.

There were rounds I gave to Floyd in the middle which could have easily gone to Oscar.

I actually left with a higher respect for Oscar because he looked more like his old self (high guard, parrying shots) than I've seen in the last several years.

Lastly, Floyd knew not to throw that lead right hand, the few times he did, Oscar stuffed a hard jab in his face which made him leery or throwing it.

I thought some of the clean shots Floyd landed later were slaps more than anything. You could clearly see him opening his gloves when he threw those shots...mainly the roundhouse right hands.

Floyd pretty much did enough to win. if Oscar would have stayed on his jab, he would have easily won the fight. Either way it goes, it was an unsatisfactory fight for me. Floyd never hurt Oscar, but I thought he (Floyd) got rocked a few times. Neither guy took an ass kicking or really got robbed. I can see a case being made for Oscar, but it's not a strong one. I could see a draw at best for Oscar.

I could make a case for a draw, but I left with the feeling that Floyd won, though it wasn't a cakewalk and Floyd wasn't impressive in winning the fight.

Getting back to what I said earlier about Oscar blocking a ton of Floyd's shots, that's as impressive as Floyd making Oscar miss over the top. The problem (for Oscar) is that it's not as showy as wildly missing over the top. The guys and women in the room watching the fight pretty much fell in love with the missed shots, but couldn't manage to see the parried shots...

(note: can we make a law that if a woman only watches boxing once or twice every five years, her ass should be in the kitchen baking cookies and not drinking beer with the fellas. There was this one bitch who yelled for Floyd the whole night and called him "Weather" because she didn't know is friggin' name. To make matters worse, her ass was passed out BEFORE Floyd talked to Merchant. :flip: )

Back to what I was saying...Oscar blocked shots, Floyd slipped shots. Both are equally impressive defensive skills to me. It's as though Oscar's usual flurries worked against him and the best part of his defensive game wasn't given enough credit.

One cat raved about how Floyd's jab was "killing" Oscar through the first couple rounds until I pointed out that when Floyd jabs and Oscar's gloves move, that means Oscar BLOCKED the punch. This fool considered that a landed/scoring shot. :doh:

 

What fight did you watch?
