How Did You See Oscar's Close fights?

[Taeth]

Mosely II - Oscar won

Trinidad - Oscar had the win but then coasted to a defeat. Did he give up enough to earn the L? I don't think so but the judges decided otherwise. I'm slightly divided. Oscar shouldn't have coasted ... he agrees ... but did he really give up enough points that Trinidad wins? I dont think so ...

Mayweather - If it had been the 'night of the jab' all night Oscar might have been able to beat Mayweather. But it wasn't the night of the jab. Mayweather wins.

Sturm - not to take anything away from Sturm, but surprisingly and embarrasingly Oscar loses.

Mayweather out jabbed Oscar -.-

Pretty simple question, Oscar had a lot of close fights in his career, most of them were big ones too. So I was wondering how you saw them. I picked 6, I didn't include the first Mosley fight because I really doubt anyone thinks De La Hoya won but I do think he performed really well in that fight in what is a very underrated fight but one of my favorites of all time. Great mix of action, tactics and skill with contrasting styles. I've grown to really like Oscar in these past few months, shame how he went out.

Whitaker
Quartey
Trinidad
Mosley II
Sturm
Mayweather

How did you score them and if you can't remember how you scored it do you at least remember who you thought won?

TBH! I don't remember the Whitaker fight at all! It's been such a long time and I never revisited that one.

VS Quartey: Quartey won IMO by staying on his feet. I had him ahead but by the narrowest of margins.

VS Trinidad: No way Trinidad won that fight. BUT! A piece of me was satisfied with the decision because of how Oscar just ran during the championship rounds.

VS Mosely II: I had Oscar winning, but it was still a close fight. Not too devastated about the actual outcome.

VS Sturm: Sturm got robbed.

VS Mayweather: It was competitive for the first 6 rounds (I even had Oscar ahead coming into the 7th). The second half of the fight was a different story. Mayweather controlled it the rest of the way.

Whittaker - 114-112 - de la hoya did more than enough to win the fight

Quartey - 113-112 de-la hoya dead level going into the last but a stunning comeback from oscar who almost got ike out of there at the end.

Trinidad - 115-113 Trinidad de la hoya dominated the 1st half of the fight but faded badly towards the end and i think ended up losing the last 5 odd rounds.

Mosley II - 115-113 Mosley I had shane outworking him for a second successive narrow win.

Sturm - 114-114 Draw Those that claim sturm was completely robbed obviously didnt pay close enough attention to the fight. The 3 same scorecards did seem a bit suspiscious but its not the 1st time and wont be the last will it.

Mayweather - 114-114 Draw Arguably oscars best performance of his career and having watched the fight over and over again i still have ODLH doing enough to take 6 rounds, had he not of faded towards the end he would of pulled it off!

How the fuck did you have Oscar scoring a draw in the Mayweather fight please give me the rounds you gave Oscar so I can disect your scorecard. Do people honestly think not landing punches wins you rounds?

[C-Lo]

WOW! I can see how you gave certain fighters the nod (Oscar over Whitaker, Oscar over Quartey, Shane over Oscar, Trinidad over Oscar). Eventhough our opinions mostly differed on those, I could see where you're coming from. But to have Sturm and Mayweather's fights with Oscar as both draws?! That's a bit off...

[VictorCharlie]

Oscar vs Whitaker = draw for me. I remember thinking the knockdown was bogus and the deduction
Oscar over Quartey but don't remember the score
Oscar over Tito 7 rounds to 5
Oscar over Mosely II dont remember score
Sturm over Oscar dont remember score
PBF 7 rounds to Oscar 5

Sorry i know this is your opinion but i have no idea how you have, Felix Sturm vs ODLH a draw. I've never seen anyone that thought ODLH done enough to earn a draw. He was completely confused and outscored by Felix Strum's superb left jab, ODLH looked wild and desperate with his combination's. One of his worst performances and he for certain lost that fight.

ODLH vs Floyd Mayweather Jr again is way off, you obviously didn't pay enough attention to the fight. ODLH landed nothing of any substance Floyd Mayweather landed the cleaner more accurate shots and alot more of them. And if anyone had the fight close after 9 rounds, Floyd Mayweather Jr sealed the deal quite easily in the last few rounds.

Im not gonna go off at you too much for the Ike Quartey/ODLH fight, because that was close. But too me the rounds were pretty easy to score and at best, ODLH was 2 points behind going into the 12th. He was constantly outscored by Ike Quartey's jab. And he knew himself how desperate the situation was. Again it was close but IMO ODLH was outboxed and outscored against an opponent with the better jab, it was mostly a jab match and i felt Ike Quartey was able to work his jab more effectively. And at best ODLH may of earned a draw.

As for the orginal question i can't remember my exact scores but i do remember who i had winning and it goes like this.

Whitaker = Draw
Quartey = Quartey
Trinidad = Draw
Mosley II = ODLH
Sturm = Sturm
Mayweather = Mayweather
