Just rewatched the fight and again I had Castillo winning clearly. Castillo Put in some good work from the 4th round and up. Castillo was even walking down Mayweather in the last two rounds and he was the champion. Mayweather was the challenger and never fought with any urgency to win that title, it seems like he was just trying to survive. Compu Box stats had Castillo landing more punches and power punches. Floyd should not be undefeated IMO.. I will put a poll..Here are the last two rounds..
I just finished watching it. Very close fight. I had Castillo slightly ahead or a draw. Very entertaining fight. The first thing that came to mind was Duran would have slaughtered either one if these two guys.
I have seen it 13 times now, and I have Castilo winning all 13 times by 3-4 rounds. Floyd also lost the first one against Maidana, the second one is even debatable. He also lost against Oscar, though a much closer fight.
Yeah you dont know **** about boxing if you think he lost against Maidana and Oscar
Had it 113-113 but it could've went 114-112 for either fighter. People who say it was a robbery are biased. Mayweather cleared it up with the rematch tho
Jesus christ.Floyd won the first 5 rounds and won the championship rounds...Floyd won a close fight man get over it..
Agreed.
This was my scorecard and I just watched it 2-3 days ago.
Mayweather
1, 2 (10-8 for legit kd cuz if you trip over your own legs after getting tagged thats a knockdown), 3, 4, 5, 10 (-1 point)
Castillo
6, 7, 8 (-1 point), 9, 11, 12
TOTAL
114-113 Mayweather

I thought Floyd won by a round or two. I could see why people could have it a draw but that's generous in my eyes. I really don't see how you can give Castillo 6 rounds, never mind 7 or more for the win.
And no, i'm not a big Floyd fan. Just called it how is see it. He is an undefeated fighter. This probably being the closest fight in a 49 fight career.
Difficult concept for many but body punches do count. Rescore Hagler vs. Leonard again with this in mind and you may be surprised by the result. :lol1:
Floyd could fight a prime Khan now, for instance.
Yeah, OK. Funny but a few months ago khan/Floyd was a joke fight. When khan won 1 of the 4 polls, picking him was a joke and then when Maidana got the fight, Khan was better.
I get it, do whatever you can to minimize what Floyd does solely because in your heart you know he is the best.
As for Floyd losing, why don't you go on twitter and ask Manny, shane, ODh, cotto, and kosta why they wouldn't fight Pretty Boy Floyd but jumped at fighting Money May.
Floyd might have had up to 3 losses if Manny, Shane, or ODH didn't refuse to fight him when they were prime. Lucky for Floyd, they found other men to fight.

Bravo!!
That's exactly how I scored and viewed the fight.
I was at that fight. The MGM was rocking, but this was before Mayweather was the draw he is today. The Mexican fight fans had the place rocking. The crowd was PRO CASTILLO.
Watching it at home with the TV on mute should always reveal the truth about a fight.
Mayweather won a semi-close fight.
I agree as well, don't remember what my exact score was but I had Mayweather winning the first 5 rounds. Castillo did very well the second half of the fight, but he put himself in a position where he needed to win 7 rounds in a row to come out ahead and that didn't happen.
If he had a few of those early rounds he could have won.
Even baby bro knows Castillo won.

The funny thing is you have Floyd haters on here that will vote against him and you have Floyd groupies that would never vote against him. So I guess that problem neutralizes itself and all you have left is us fair folk. Still 67% lol
