116-112 Oscar. Big time robbery. Tito got outclassed.

[Master]

robbery is an overused term.

I had it 116-112. No way you could give 7 rounds to Tito. He wasn't landing anything the whole fight.

For sure. And that's why this fight as a robbery... robbery... robbery... robbery...

ARR OHH BEE BEE EEE ARR WHY? Probably because Don King was involved...

I just love this self-perpetuating Trinidad-DLH fight myth.

I just watched the fight again (probably only the 3rd or 4th time).... with the commentary ON, but ignoring the commentary.

1 - DLH (and I was being kind.... Trinidad did little.... DLH did even less)
2 - Trinidad
3 - Trinidad
4 - Trinidad
5 - DLH
6 - DLH
7 - DLH
8 - Trinidad
9 - Trinidad
10 - DLH (although he was running like Usain Bolt... once again I was kind-hearted)
11 - Trinidad
12 - Trinidad

7 - 5: Trinidad


It's no wonder so many people consider it a (cough)..... robbery. With the deep-throating Lampley ("and ANOTHER big right hand").... regardless of whether it missed or not... and the rest of the adoring HBO crew..... it's no wonder how many clueless people got swayed.

Robbery my ass.

All I know is HBO and Vegas' darling lost the decision to U.S. judges, on U.S. soil, on DLH's backyard.... when DLH was still undefeated and America's darling.

Live with it.

Rounds 2/3/4 to Tito?!!?!?! HAhahaHAHa!

Aside from those rounds (2/3/4) you had to (wrongfully) score for Trinidad to ensure he won, we had the same scorecard!

The fact that you could give Trinidad rounds 2, 3 and 4 show you're watching with a bit of a vested interest haha. Trinidad won round 1 (based on both guys doing hardly anything) and then didn't win another until round 10, and that's what's up.

Round 2 - Oscar is landing the clean, damaging punches. Tito is hitting Oscar's gloves. Oscar finishes the round strong.

Round 3 - Oscar again lands the clean, effective punches. Boxes Tito's ears off for the entire second half of the round.

Round 4 - Oscar gives Tito a boxing lesson for the entire round. Tito lands a couple punches at the end of the round. Is that supposed to undue the boxing clinic Oscar gave him for the entire round?

What fight are you guys watching? Oscar boxed beautifully, he was throwing the combinations and landing the clean punches. Tito was plodding and throwing one punch at a time, which the Compubox numbers show as DLH landing a 100 more punches than Tito did.
