Im going to score this fight round by round and we can discuss which rounds you gave to which fighter
I was a fan of both at the time, I was a little upset when Castillo beat my boy "lil but bad" but it illustrated he was an elite lightweight and would remain one if not the best of his era for the next 5-6 years
This fight is very close and my score card changes with each viewing
fights like this made me a die hard fan...two elite fighters, contrasting styles, in their prime and hard to score
this fight wasnt controversial and could have been a draw or 7-5 either way was a just scorecard
this fight showed the worth of both fighters and hopefully one day el Temible makes the hall of fame....looking back he was one the best lightweight of the 2000s easily
When people actually watch the fight it kills that myth that Castillo was robbed..most people who say it never even watched the fight
check out the thread
its been a while but none of the usual suspects even attempted to score the fight
i scored it a draw and Mayweather by 2 points....not a robbery just a bunch of sour grapes.
Well lets see he Beat Randell in the rematch ahead on the score card at the time of the cut ,knock him out in the 3rd fight, Knock out and ruined Meldrick Taylor and the Draw with Whitaker he struggled but Floyd struggled with pressure fighters Castillo and Madaina both who beat him but do to corruption they gave him the win. If you think Floyd won those fights than you have to except the Chavez vs Whitaker draw
with posts like that I cant take you seriously...Maidana won 4 rounds...yipppeeee...he didnt win and if you think he won, you really need to be taught how to score a fight
doing better than what people expected doesnt mean you win
I dont have to accept anything.
I'll make a thread for Whitaker vs Chavez soon...last time I scored it 8-4 whitaker
if you are not going to add to the thread...dont post in it...very simple...its to compare our scorecards not to troll or anything.
Just a fight review for the fans

I had it 115/113 Castillo the second time around, real close fight, could have gone either way.
No one, not even DLH or Maidana were able to cut off the ring and time Mayweather as effectively as Castillo.
Love to score another fight. My suggestions would be Pac/Marquez I or II. The first fight could be a study on how to properly score a fight and the second was just a real close and competitive fight.
Just posted JMM-PAC 3.....chose that one because no knock downs or point deductions...just a nice clean fight to score
I agree....castillo is so underrated and him fighting on too long has diluted the memories people had of the beast who roamed 135 from 1999-2005
He should be in the hall of fame one day
genius floyd fans watching 12 full rounds of 3 minutes fight that happened long time ago to analyze, find out who really won.
genius floyd fans don't want to watch a five round 3 minute fight of slow mo video to see if floyd really wins the fight, for whatever reason.
genius floyd fans and their logic.
why did you even post in the thread...
for real boxing fans only, not trolls...dont want to add to the convo or score the fight....dont post
Thats your Opinion which is worth 2 cents

Score 1 & 2
ha ha ha ha another zaroku blunder....
rule 1.....stick to the thread topic...
rule 2.....do not complicate...
and, what is the issue if fighter A was beat black and blue 7-5 by fighter B and also got beat spotless 8-4 by fighter C? A was beat twice? yes? no?
Castillo beat Floyd.
Still have not finished my round by round for Floyd vs Manny
He may have lost 3 fights!
If manny' many Pac's t@rd legion think PAC won, they need to compare his so called victory over Floyd, with a guy who Most people believe beat Floyd. I believe Castillo beat Floyd. Where is the outrage?? Where is the homo slow mo investigation????
I executed a ore-emptive strike on delusional t@rds trying to ressurect PAC to the main man. He was exposed, case closed.
Sorry for throwing his name in the mix.... Castillo didn't cry as much getting robbed, nor did he make idiotic excuses about tight socks, God talks, shoulder pain, etc....
Castillo beat Floyd is my position.

comments mean nothing if you are not scoring the fight...sorry bro
the fight is nip and tuck and you probably never sat down and watched the entire fight
Castillo stryggled with every good boxer he faced.....frankie randal, taylor, whitaker, ODLH, Tyszu....Chavez didnt have the size, length or jab of castillo
just because a fighter is greater doesnt mean they are better at everything newbie
Thats your Opinion which is worth 2 cents
anybody with a brain wouldnt miss those thudding shots...he also is countering floyds counter
i really enjoyed this fight live
...why not score the fight with us and explain your card....or would you rather troll?
this is just out of fun, if you arent going to score it with us and explain your card, you're not adding anything to the thread.....
so touchy. ayy mija.
i saw it like two weeks ago and this time with some new buddies and one was even black fwiw (a lot, they typically stick with their own, but no racism tho, i'm pr and i get it) and after the 10th or 11th round where it was a 10-8 it was like that's a wrap. i'm not trolling, though. relatively close if you have a bias coming in but clear in castillos favor as to who won that fight, that night in LV.
I had it for Castillo by a few at the time. Only ever watched the fight twice and the re-watch was a long time ago. I will have to try watch it again and come up with a scorecard. See if i get the same this time around.
I used to had a thread linked in my sig, which had all my scorecards from close fights down the years. Somehow lost it though..which sucks.
Your idea OP, of a regular thread of close fights, where we can re-watch and re-score sounds a good idea.
Thanks bro....I'll have another thread posted in the next few days
Gonna watch some fights n decide 2 fights I'll choose for next week
115-113 Mayweather. Watched it a couple times the past years, always come up with the same score.
This is still a topic because Mayweather never lost. We used to have daily threads about Pac-Marquez II around here until Pac lost to Bradley and the people making those threads got what they wanted.
People are so predictable.
Yo Paulie where you been
When people actually watch the fight it kills that myth that Castillo was robbed..most people who say it never even watched the fight
You said a mouth full then L boogie
Its 100% the truth
