My bad. I forgot about that fight and you are correct with this particuliar fight.

They land but don't do much damage so they don't carry as much weight in the eyes of a lot of judges. So it's quite possible that he was robbed. It wouldn't be the first time somebody has won a fight throwing fewer punches but landing more power shots. Especially when he wins more of the rounds at the end.

As I said, I didn't see the fight, so I'll reserve judgement until after that.
These however are the punch stat numbers:
De La Hoya Mosley
Total Jabs
106 Landed 33
296 Thrown 268
36% Pct. 12%
Power Punches
115 Landed 94
320 Thrown 228
36% Pct. 41%
Total Punches
221 Landed 127
616 Thrown 496
36% Pct. 26%
All the numbers favour de la Hoya except power punch %. He still hit him with more power shots.
Oscar MAY have looked more devastated because of the blood when they knocked heads. But, I'll see for myself soon enough.
