I scored the fight for Mosley, as did everyone on the HBO broadcast team commentating on the bout. How one judge gave it to Mora and another scored it a draw was hard to comprehend, but that's just what happened: One judge scored it for Mosley 116-112, one for Mora 115-113, and one a 114-114 draw.
Both boxers were tentative in the early going, but Mora more so; Mora basically just backed away from Mosley for the first couple rounds. By the end of the third round the crowd was booing a lack of much energy from either fighter.
