If Oscar had effectively cut off the ring and forced Mayweather to the ropes, Oscar would have been controlling the ring generalship.

I put a lot of value on ring generalship, because I hate the concept of giving extra credit to the guy who comes forward, as some judges do. It's about effective agressiveness, not just aggressiveness. You don't get any extra credit from me for coming forward unless you're actually effective doing it.
P, nice one!
Cutting off the ring/ Controlling the center or the ring. Nice
