Alright Rattle thanks for the PBP 6:30 in the morning here off to bed.

Cheers

Hopped everyone liked the PBP, Mayweather Sr. said he thinks Hoya won the fight.

My quick impression:

The judge who scored it for DH is a former chief judge of WBC. He is a very famous judge. And the other two are Las Vegas judges.

The LV judges tend to rate jabs highly, hence 2-1 for Mayweather.

My impression is that SWW is a bit too much for Mayweather. I'm no expert, but to me, he wasn't impressive at all. This match didn't do anything for his reputation, while it did for DH.

I thought it was a good fight. I was mad that they gave Oscar the win on one card because to me there was no doubt that Floyd won the fight. It was a pretty good fight for 9 rounds and then it fell of towards the end.

The most baphling thing I have ever heard a fighter say was when Oscar said "it wasn't the night for the jab. Everytime I used the jab it would snap his head back and I had him bleeding from the nose from just the jab. But for whatever reason it wasn't the night of the jab".

WHAT?

Just watched it - pretty decent fight but certainly not anywhere near as good as you would have expected.

krikit · 6th May 2007, 11:11 AM

Decent fight, thought Mayweather won pretty clearly.

Good fight, i've expected much more boring fight due to styles but De La Hoya made it interesting.
I've had fight a draw... Mayweather IMO didn't do enough to win a championship.

Mayweather dominated the fight. The only time ODLH scored is when Mayweather let him.

El Presidente · 13th May 2007, 05:57 PM

Mayweather won no doubt about it - I expected more of him. He didnt give Oscar a 'boxing lesson' as such.
