I'm not 100% sure. But if I remember correctly, by round 6 I had De La Hoya winning the fight by a good margin. Then De La Hoya got too cautious and then Mayweather began to pop him.

Some articles say that De La Hoya looked good late against Forbes but I'll tell you this, Forbes isn't Mayweather.
Oscar didn't come close to winning the first half of the fight... to have him ahead by a good margin is insane
Really? Mayweather just backed up and let Oscar miss but definitely didn't throw much back. Even though Oscar didn't land anything flush, he IMO landed good enough to win the rounds. You can't win rounds by not throwing punches.

I don't want this to get confused by me saying that Floyd lost. I thought Floyd won a somewhat comfortable fight but for the first 6 rounds, De La Hoya put the pressure on.
