Rounds 2-9 are all DLH in an exhibit of boxing skill, then he coasted and lost the last three.
117-111 the same score i had it at 8 years ago! Trinidad just didn't do enough to take rounds away from DLH. I guess the rematch never happened because Tito could no longer make 147lb, or maybe he just didn't want to be soundly beaten again!
That comment is total bull, we all know why this re-match was never made. DLH just could not stand having anyone make the same money that he was making and priced himself out. Tito is still calling DLH and what did he do, decided to go back to 147.



Oscar didn't have the same problem with a rematch with Mosley? At the time Oscar WAS the money man and he was just robbed in a fight he clearly won, why give Tito more biscuits than he deserves?
Well first off, Mosley beat him the first time, clearly... secondly, the rematch happened later after Mosley had lost twice to Forrest. So I really doubt Shane made near what Oscar did in either fight... Could be wrong I guess.
I think you might be right, Mosley would not have made the same money after losing to Forrest
twice. In reality, Oscar in the late 90's was the big drawcard and the Golden Boy nickname not only comes from Olympic glory but he was money in the bank for promoters. Both Tito and Shane did not have his high profile.
