Mosley-De La Hoya II- I actually agreed with the decision but I could see how people might think Oscar won, its this insistence by some that he was robbed that confuses me. He at best won a close decision. Shane was clearly landing the harder punches and Oscar, as usual, got too much credit for flurries that didn't really land

Bernard Hopkins-Jermain Taylor II- I think Hopkins clearly won this fight.
A lot of people seem not to. The first fight is more debatable, Bernard clearly waited too long although its not like Taylor was doing much. But the second fight is almost to the point of not even being debatable to me, Bernard clearly won a majority of the rounds.

JMM-Barrera-I've been a fan of Barrera's for a long long time but he clearly lost this fight IMO. If I remember correctly I wasn't really able to post on Saddo's around this fight so I remember being shocked by how close people thought it was or that some people thought he won. I just don't see it.

Anyway, thoughts?
I aggree with you there Ouma fan no way on earth Barrera won that fight he fought in effective spurts but Morrales was throwing and landing hard shots all night from 1 to 12 , think the difference is when MAB was hurt he tendedto kida tuck up and then rally whereas Morrales being upright got his head snapped back , but i mos def aggree with you on that .
I watch fights with the sound of and it makes a hell of a difference , alot of the time the crowd sways the commentator and they without realising find theselves being overly dramtic when one fighter lands .

Case in point Naz - MAB was alot closer , Naz towards the end of the fight was dominaiting with the Jab but found himself getting tagged off balance with alot of cuffing shots , Mab won the fight but it was by no means a landslide.
