    Yes. They kinda impressed me too. Surprisingly, they fought a fast pace fight.

    Oscar won pretty handily. It was an okay fight. Floyd picks holes in him though in any rematch.

    I was not impressed by Oscar at all. He did have a very effective jab, but as a come forward fighter, Oscar is not very good (he's a better counter puncher). Forbes landed the more flush shots and Oscar, true to form, looked flashy while "pitty-patting," but missed many punches or landed them on the gloves. Look at Oscar's face!! Someone like Cotto will surely disfugure him.

    I don't think thats a fair assumption to make... Look what Lovemore N'Dou did against Cotto. Tough guys give all but the best pure boxers a difficult fight. If Mayweather had foughten Forbes he would have easily outsped and outfinessed Forbes, but when its somebody a little slower like Oscar who isn't as good at moving or boxing then it becomes more difficult for them if they can't take out their opponent. Cotto ran into it a few times as well.
