I think this shows once and for all that it WAS a very close fight and open to interperatation.

I think it was a 50/50 fight going into the final round, but fair play to Mosely, he took it out of the judges hands.

HBO's commentary was fucking dreadful though, talk about home fighter bias
Well since the fight had only 11 judged rounds, he is saying Mayorga was up 9 - 2. I have a hard time seeing how anyone could have given that many rounds to Mayorga. Throwing punches should not win you a round, but the more effective punching should. Bunce seems to be crediting just work, not effective work. It was definately a close fight, and honestly that's the best I've seen Mayorga look since the Forrest fights of yesteryear, Mayorga won rounds, a close amount no doubt, but no way you can say Mosley only won 2 rounds.
Yeah I agree completely, I just wanted to demonstrate that it was a very close fight, contrary to the opinion of some on here who thought that you had to know nothing about boxing to have Mayorga level with Mosely going into the 12th round, and secondly, I just wanted to stir some shit
