He was hardly dancing on the backfoot the entire fight!!
He beat Oscar fair and square in a BOXING match. That is how smart boxers win their fights. It may not be edge of the seat stuff but thats how it usually plays out. Personally, I found it to be a very interesting fight.
Floyd once again jumped up in weight and this time very clearly took on and beat the best the division had to offer...
He deserves some acclaim instead of this abuse I see out there on the forum. Stop taking shots for just a moment and give him his moment. Floyd came and delivered and by a wider margin than a single point. No way in a million years could anybody with a rational mind consider giving Oscar the decision. Im not a huge fan of either fighter but can see that Floyd won and in a way that I found pleasing enough to watch.
Haters are just boring entities who need to find more in their lives!
