I used to think DLH/Mosley was a robbery, than I watched it without Foreman, Lampley & Merchant & I have to say I had Mosley 115-113. We all like to think that the commentators don't affect our opinion of the action, but basic human nature says it must. How else can you explain almost all of press row that night scoring it for Mosley?

I think only had Oscar winning rounds 2,6 & 12 against Floyd if I remember rightly, just didn't feel he was controlling those other rounds. I'll agree Taeth is biased for Mayweather/Berto/Pacquiao/Dirrell/Rigondeaux etc.
see i can respect your opinion cause you don't just thrash other people for disagreeing with you, unlike Taeth, i've watched Mosley/DLH II without commentary and come up with the same score 116-112 for DLH i felt he controlled most of the first 9 rounds, and Mosley took over a bit winning 3 of the final 4 rounds, agree that HBO's commentators are usually biased, but hey i'm not a drone lol
Hey if I am biased then it must be for Mayweather, Pacquiao, Marquez, Hopkins, Wright, Dirrell, Rigondeaux, Gamboa, JML, Cotto, Berto, Haye, Wladimir Klitschko, Nonito Donaire, Kessler... the list goes on this is just off the top of my head.

I am biased for clean landing punches. I love Hopkins but I didn't think he dominated Winky Wright because he couldn't land very many clean punches. I like Marquez more than Barrera, I don't think he was that much more effective. I like Mayweather more than Zab Judah, that doens't make me think he won the first four rounds of that fight. I really like Calzaghe, I still think the compubox numbers were bs in his fight against Hopkins. I like really like Chad Dawson, I don't think he beat Glen Johnson(who I don't like).

The first time I saw Trinidad-De La Hoya I thought Trinidad was the best fighter in the sport, way back when, and when I saw that fight I was thinking damn Oscar is making him look stupid, at that time i thought Tito was the shit, afterwards I thought I didn't know boxing. Then saw Trinidad against Hopkins, I thought Trinidad would win for sure, but Hopkins dominated him. I went into watching both those fights not knowing the outcome.

Morales which of the first four rounds did you give to Mayweather?
the first round where he landed the only solid punches?
The fifth round when Mayweather staggered Oscar off the ropes?
The 3rd round where Oscar didn't get anyhting done, and Mayweather landed clean precise punches?
