Oscar also outweighed him by at least 15lbs, hence his punches being harder. To me neither looked like they'd been in a fight, but are you really saying you'd score a fight based on slight swelling above one eye?

Found the vid - Would you really say that is real swelling? It probably came from that final flurry at the end, so do you decide a fight on that?

no i'm not saying that, i judge a fight ROUND BY ROUND, and my final score was 115-113 Mayweather at most it could be 116-112 Mayweather, and i scored the fight completely unbiased
Well, so do I if you're trying to imply that I score a fight with bias, I just can't see 5 Oscar rounds in that fight, not when you watch it without Lampley & Merchant cheerleading (watch the 2nd Mosley fight with the sound off & you will see a different fight).

At the time I think I scored it 116-112, but watching it recently I only gave Oscar 3 rounds. I'm not saying it was a shut-out, it was a pretty competitive fight, but round by round Mayweather was better 9 of the 12 for me.

One case in point is that often as boxing fans we tend to see the guy who finishes stronger as winning the fight if it's close. An obvious example is Cotto-Clottey. Even whilst I scored the fight on paper & had it for Clottey, at the finish I had the impression Cotto had won because he closed out better for me. Or Leonard-Hagler, everytime I watched that I mentally decided Hagler won, but when I actually sat down & scored each round I had it narrowly for Leonard.
