Just a few examples

Hopkins-De La Hoya-I had ODLH winning one round before it was stopped. Not sure how close most thought this was

Toney-Jirov- Had Toney with 8 rounds, also a knockdown and I could be wrong but I think Jirov had a point taken off. Actually the judges scorecards were around this but not Lederman's and a lot of people thought it was a lot closer.

JMM-Barrera-Every time I've seen it I've had JMM winning either 8-4 or 9-3. I did ignore Lampley which could have something to do with that.
I don't see how those fights were not close, but a lot of people think Mayweather-ODLH was separated by a round or two, and thats complete BS. Oscar maybe won 4 rounds if he was lucky.

Oscar definitely won more than one round against Hopkins who didn't really start taking over until a little later, and Barrera-JMM was a very close fight, Barrera won 4 rounds pretty much in the first half of the fight.
