I am simply at a loss when people state that Mayweather "beat the crap out of Oscar" or "embarrassed Oscar" or "made Oscar look stupid". I must be watching a completely different fight - every time I watch it, I still see a VERY close fight. I thought Mayweather did enough to win, but only just! People go on about how Oscar was missing with his flurries - which is true - but fail to mention that a LOT of PBF's potshots bounced harmlessly off of Oscar's gloves. We expected Oscar to miss a lot, since PBF's defense is outstanding, but Oscar's defense was awfully tight, too.

As much as I hate to, I vote PBF as the p4p #1 at the moment. But just barely! I still think a lot more should go into determining the p4p status than pure technical ability.

If boxing can be summed up in terms of technique, then the technical fighter will always win. But that's not true, as history has proven countless times. Sometimes, a "flawed" fighter whips the living crap out of the "technically superior" fighter.
Brilliant!!!! specially the last paragraph.
