He deserved the Quartey but not the Whitaker. They didn't even count when Pernell knocked him down so it would have been an even larger margin. The fight with Ike, he was hurt worse than Ike was during Ikes first knockdown but the ref inexplicably got in between them for noapparent reason while Ike was trying to finish him off. The fight did go on however and Delahoya clearly won. I am a DLH basher BTW but I call it like I see it.
You need to watch the fights again. If anything I think he won the Whitaker fight but should of lost the Quartey fight. The knock down in the Whitaker fight was bullshit. It shouldn't of counted. Whitaker made Oscar miss but he never made him pay. He was on the defensive the whole fight. I had Oscar winning by 3 points. And I had him losing by 2 points against Quartey. How Oscar was winning before his 12th round rally is beyound me.
I agree with VD 50% and I agree with BX 50%. I think ODH lost both fights, but usually the stuff I say about Oscar is bias I will admit that, but you have to beat the champion (old adage) do you really think Oscar did enough.
He did enough, barely. As good as Whitaker's defense was that night his offense was just as terrible.
