Oscar got ROBBED
 

ANYONE watching this fight had to give it to Oscar. Stupid ass judges he won the first fight also and they gave this one to mosley.

True dat. I hope Oscar does what he says and protest this mutherfuckin bullshit decision. He threw more punches, he won more rounds, and he controlled the tempo of the fight. Boxing is such a crooked fuckin sport.

yet another blackeye for the blackeye sport. I usually watch EVERY fight that is on and have been a follower for many years and these half blind judges got to go, how many fights in the last year alone have we watched and been a unanimous decision for one fighter only to see it go to the other one on the cards. Did you see his face when they announced him the winner, I think he shit himself, suprised as all hell he won the fight. I do not know what he can protest but I wish him luck and he has been robbed in all 3 of his losses now.

Can't feel too sorry for the guy, he just got $17 million richer. By the way, the AP scored it for Mosley too so its not like it was just some blind/bribed judges.

I guess you didn't see the fight.

Information from maxboxing.com was used in this report.

Wow, if it's on ESPN.com it must be true. Seriously, I did think De La Hoya won, but the scoring from ESPN is way off. Mosely definitely won round 3 and most of the rounds after 8. Golden Boy can now resume his singing career earlier I suppose.

BTW, did anyone see George Foreman and that old ring interviewer dude going at it at the end of the telecast. Funny stuff...George would go on the offensive against him and always smile at the camera at the end.

Oscar has NOT been robbed in all 3 of his loses. He LOST the Trinidad fight because he ran for 5 of the last 6 rounds. You can't win a fight running in fucking circles. I hate it when people say he got robbed, he robbed himself by being a pussy. Go search for Max Kellerman's round by round break down of this fight. Oscar lost at least 6 rounds, and Max Kellerman said possibly as many as 8. Including the last 4 maybe 5.

Suga Shane beat him the first fight, if you want to deny that, you need to contact your local eyeglass store, or make sure you were infact watching that fight. He lost, plain and simple. It's the only time in his career he's without a doubt been beaten.

This fight however, he won. He got fucked. I hope he protests, and wins. I hate De La Hoya, but I absolutley had bad descisions, and this was one of the worst. I'm about ready to give up on boxing, it's horrible.

I wasn't judging the decision based on what ESPN wrote OK?
I saw the fight and I was not the only one surprised by this result. I gave the round by round info for those folks not able to see it OK?

Maybe it is you my friend who needs to visit an eyeglass store, that "running like a pussy" is what I would call RING GENERALSHIP, he thought he had a big enough lead for whatever reason and did not feel like he had to continue an out and out assault the last XX rounds of the fight, he has said this before. Getting beat down and not fighting back would be running, but avoiding someones blows in a defensive manner and controlling the fight without an offrensive is what you are supposed to be doing in a fight. On the first Mosley fight go check results I am pretty sure youll find it was not a clean cut Mosley victory as you make it out to be. We do both agree however, that he dd win this fight, which I will also agree was close but he still won nontheless.

There should be no question that Shane won the first fight. If you watched the fight, it was obvious: Shane won. This fight, however, DeLaHoya should have one. He outhustled Shane for almost the entire fight. Shane didn't even throw any punches.

DeLaHoya got rocked a few times, but it did not have any effect on him. He rocked Shane a few times, too. Horrible decision, imo.

There is no question,Shane won the first fight, period. He won the last 5 rounds for christ sake, dominated him for the last 5 rounds. No question. There is not even a debate about the last 5 rounds in the first fight.

I got to reading some articles about this fight, and as much as I want it to sound like a "conspiracy" or somthing, all three judges had it the same score. It wasen't some silly ass split descision at 115-113, 115-113 and some jackass has a 117-111 card. They all 3 had the same score, and watched the same thing apparently.

I still think he got screwed. Even calling it a draw was fine with me, overall, it was a pretty tactical defensive fight.

I watched. I was stunned when they announced Mosley the winner. Thats the problem with boxing, unless someone is counted out theres no telling who will be declared the winner. Makes me wonder what the judges were doing while they were supposed to be scoring the fight.:mad:

Hold up people. Max Kellerman and Brian Kelley were both ringside and both scored the fight for Mosley. Both said repeatedly, if you watched it on television, you will think Oscar won it. Oscar landed more, but Mosley landed better.

And all of the judges agreed on the scorecards.

Remember two things before you start crying conspiracy:
1. Mosley landed the harder, cleaner shots. This is not easy (or impossible) to see on television, but is much easier to see in person.
2. Fights are NOT scored on the basis of the whole fight, but on a round by round basis. All judges agreed Mosley took more rounds than De La Hoya.

This is boxing. If you as a fighter cannot force a decision within twelve rounds you leave it to the judges. This is nothing new.

Montana, if you think a great match-up like this constitutes a black eye on the sport of boxing, I'd hate to hear what you think about lesser bouts. This was a good fight (I must admit I watched the ESPNNews round-by-round coverage during the fight - not the fight itself - they had it for Mosley also) between two good fighters. This is a dream matchup for boxing and true boxing fans.

From maxboxing:
"HBO's broadcast team thought De La Hoya deserved the victory. The ringside media was evenly split on thier opinion of who won tonight's mega rematch that soldout the MGM Grand's Garden Arena."

Pehaps some of the criticism of the fight ourcome is biased by what the HBO announcers had to say? I'm just guessing here.

If the ringside media (most of whom are experts themselves) was split, then it was just a good, even fight. Noone was robbed. The media watched the fight ringside, same as the judges - and if they felt Mosley fought just as well as De La Hoya than I'm sure he did.

Again, if neither fighter could finish it in twelve rounds, then they know that the outcome is determined by the judges. Don't put it in the hands of the judges, and they'll be no "being robbed."

I loved the fight it was great, however, I just feel Oscar won.

I don't know. I don't think they got this one right, Gov.

I honestly cannot see how Mosely won more rounds, I really can't. This is how Oscar lost to Trinidad, but you can make a case he lost the last 6 out of 7 rounds in that fight. This one however, I don't think he lost 2 more rounds then Mosley.

And I hate De La Hoya, I can't stand his fighting, I love to watch him lose. But he didn't lose.

For all the people screaming "conspiracy" here, slow down. There is no conspiracy here. This was a good fight. I feel it should have went to Oscar, but when a fight is this close, you just never know. This was not a bad decision when compared to an actual, REAL bad decision like, say, the first Lewis Holyfield fight.

I taped the fight and will watch it again. Everyone will always have differing opinions on who won when two fighters are so evenly matched.

I did feel that Oscar was tiring down the stretch (wich suprised me) and that Shane was not. The reason I thought Oscar won was that Shane just took too damn long to get started. He threw one good punch in round one, and then just stopped throwing punches.

I think Shane COULD have won dramatically if he had just stepped up a little and not given Oscar so much respect. He still seems timid since he was dropped by Forrest. And Mosley has never been known as a timid fighter.

Hopefully this win will reinstall his confidence, and he will begin to kick much ass in the division.

Very well said. Remember when you watched it also, that those at the fight feel that Mosley hit De La Hoya much harder (and cleaner) and won scoring categories like "ring generalship."

There were people at the fight, including someone with the last name of Foreman and with more than a little knowledge of the sport, who also felt De La Hoya was robbed. Watching on tv and not seeing it live doen't explain the people ringside who saw it as a one sided De La Hoya victory.
