114 - 112 for Mayweather was my score.
I remember Floyd taking an early lead, I think i gave him the first five rounds.
Castillo was able to make it much more competitive after the first five rounds and caused Floyd alot of trouble with his aggression, Castillo finished strong from what i remember.
Close fight which could of went either way.
Any doubts regarding that fight were erased when Mayweather gave Castillo a immediate rematch and outboxed him clearly.
I always have it 115-111 or 114-112 for Castillo. Doesn't really matter since Floyd had the bad shoulder and when healthy in the rematch definitely won. The only thing messed up about the first fight is the scorecards for Floyd, no way I can see those scores for him.
Yeah i had it a close when for floyd 114-113 but a split decision or mixed decision was merited. A lot of people see this fight as a bane on the guys career but to me its a compliment to it. The guy had a torn rotator cuff and couldn't go through with his gameplan and still had the grit to make it a close fight and then like you said came back healthy and dominated in the rematch so I dont really see how people bring this up as negative over and over again.

I had like 100 % of boxing people have 115-111 for CASTILLO
It was biggest robbery since WHITAKER vs CHAVEZ
Come on man, obviously your a Pacqiauo fan but atleast be honest, you have some serious hate for Mayweather lol. Mayweather Vs. Castillo 1 doesn't even come close to the way Whitaker was robbed.
I felt the fight was closer than any other fight Floyd has been in, although i didnt think it was as close as the HBO team made out. I had Mayweather winning by 3 rounds.
I watched again and my impression was the Castillo won. Punch stats show Castillo landed more punches, landed more power punches. He was the aggressor throughout. If that is not a winning hand, then there is no way to beat Mayweather.
For the judges to give that fight to Mayweather by scores of 115-111, 115-111 and
116-110 was a travesty for judging. Mayweather was perceived as the superstar going into the fight and judges were extremely generous in favor, so as not to derail his flight to superstardom.
They certainly didn't. They should have jumped into the ring afterwards and shouted "Merry Christmas."
But after that tough fight and close call, even if not on the scorecards, PBF doesn't want anything like that anymore. The rest of his career is going to be filled up with guys who are beaten before they take the ring walk.
thats because people want Floyd to lose so bad that any close fight they will say he got a gift decision. I think you have to watch the fight without listening to the commentators. Some ppl think DLH shouldve won against Floyd...That wasn't even close to me.

not you again fuking doughnut
:bryce::bryce::bryce::bryce:
Excellent fight, haven't watched in a while but i had it about 1-2 points for Mayweather, Castillo just started late & gave away most of the early rounds. I thought Mayweather did a much better job of outboxing him in the rematch.
this was floyd's tuffest fight, even though he broke his hand in the fight.....
I thought Corrales was gonna be his tuffest but....well we know what happened

Your an idiot, Whitaker-Chavez was a boxing lesson in favor of Pernell...May-Castillo was a close fight down the stretch...
No doubt Floyd's toughest fight. I have scored it for both fighters in the past gonna watch it again one day soon and REALLY analyse it.
BTW does anybody have the HBO version of their rematch because I'm sure I have only been able to find the SKY version. Not 100% sure if its the second fight, but there is definitely one of their fights that I haven't been able to find a HBO version of.
