      Id like to point out I dont listen to the HBO crew or any other crew for that matter. I think I know enough about boxing to have my own opinion on the subject.
      So....do you know how to score a boxing match?

        That was another fight the 3 stooges from HBO had Oscar winning and most fans thought Oscar won, like I said people listen to the 3 stooges from HBO more then they do with the press!

                This was the fight right after Mayweather called Merchant a clown or somethingn to that extent.
                Most of the respected press had it for PBF, also the 3 judges had it for PBF!

                  It doesn't matter if you watch the fight now, right after the fight actually happened, or in 10 years from now. All you have to do is score the rounds. How exactly are fights that happened years after this one going to change your score of the fight? That makes no sense...

                    I remember one round when Oscar lands a punch in the last second of the round, Lampley screams that punch won Oscar the round, that was a round that Oscar did not land any punches until the last second of the round, I think it was either round 3 or 4.

                      but you have to remember floyd had the bigger name and was moving up in weight. castillo was a champion but who knew who he was?
                      so why not give the nod to the American olympian who at this point was looking forward to becoming a p4p great.
