Just watched ODLH - Mayweather for the 1st since they fought.Very good fight IMO!

I agree, it was a close fight. DLH would have won if he continue jabbing.

It was an okay fight entertainment-wise. I thought PBF was a clear and fairly wide winner though, so the scores surprised me.

Close fight? It was competitive because of the style DLH used and the fact he wasn't weight drained, but Floyd easily won by 4-5 rounds, and was clearly a different level of fighter.

I agree, it was a close fight. DLH would have won if he continue jabbing.

But the main question is - why he didn't continue jabbing? It was clear after 9 rounds that DLH had only one way to win the fight - knock Mayweather out. In stead he lost atleast two rounds more.

Oscar De La Hoya's fight against Felix Sturm show some key points of his weakness. He lost some of his speed when moving to middleweight division. As we all may remember, Sturm dominated that fight and the decision (UD 12 to DLH) was one of the most stinking robberies even in Vegas standard.
