NO
It was a SD last time time.
That means Oscar only has to fight the same fight and will get the verdict setting up the 3rd one. Fact.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
I didn't see Mayweather throw anything over the Jab...Oscar just stopped throwing it.
"It wasn't the night of the jab"
Any tactic changes Floyd makes Oscar can too. So the "fight" will be very similar
If Oscar didn't think he could beat Floyd the first fight wouldn't have happened.. same goes again methinks
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Definitely not an upset for me. I'm one of the many boxing fans who believes that ODLH could(and should) have won that first fight.

I would deem it an upset, yes.

ICB is asking if you'd consider it a "BIG" upset.. meaning it's OBVIOUSLY an upset considering if the contender/underdog beats the champ, ITS and upset..
so yes, it would be an upset.. i'd say a moderate upset.. you have to factor in that DLH generally speaking is not as "good" as Floyd, making it an upset in the first place.. secondly that he is older and past his best days (still a great fighter though obviously)..
We all know Floyd talks a big talk, but he said he was on his "C game" the night of that fight, and that the next one will be no problem if he brings his A game..
The fight lies in Oscar's hands.. it's tough to figure because Floyd really was doing the bare minimum to win, and very few times did he do more.. You can say if Oscar jabbed his way in he would've been more successful, but Floyd would've eventually adapted.. so it's a tough call..
Upset? yes.. Big Upset? eh, definitely an uphill battle for Oscar, so a moderate upset.
Definatly an upset, but I don't see it is a BIG upset.
People forget that Oscar has a HUGE size/strength advantage on PBF and is an extremely skilled fighter with quick hands. I think people underestimate the accomplishment it was for FLoyd to beat DLH
Agreed, it was a close fight. I hope ODH wins because I do not want to see Hatton beat up by Mayweather again, I much prefer if it was ODH this time.
Ok let me just play Devil's Adovate here.
Most of you will say that Floyd is the best p4p fighter in the world.
Most of you recognise that Oscar is stll good enough to give him a really tough fight and in fact wouldnt consider it a big upset even if Floyd lost.
So why the hell do so many people moan about him taking the fight
It would be an upset in the sense that Floyd lost his 0 not so much that Oscar beat him....
IMO Floyd will be his own downfall...If he keeps up these outside endevours, and trying to live the celeberty life it will eventually catch up with him....I don't care how much he trains, the condition he keeps himself in etc....Floyd will buy into his "I am unbeatable" act one too many times and it will bite him in the ass....Maybe not in a rematch with DLH but eventually...Unless he is smart and only takes one or two more fights then calls it a day

not a big upset by any means. considering most people consider ODH past his prime he was doing a good job and was winning. I thought the stamina went and it cost him the fight. I want him to win but I'm not sure he can overcome that fade he's shown in several fights.
It was a split last time! I have no problem with Mayweather taking the fight so long as it's not as boring as the first.
