    But, outside of this mistake; Why cannot he be entitled to his opinion? It's not totally outlandish, although I would not go so far. But, there is some reason the judging in Floyd v. Castillo I was SO skewed. What is your assessment? I mean it was so bad IMO, that one could reasonably consider that the judges had been paid off. That excuse is usually a rather impotent notion, but in this fight I had some serious su****ions.
    He can have his own opinion. An opinion I will debate. I'm not going to debate whether or not it's decent or not, to insult an entire country, though. That's ridiculous.

    As for the fight, I don't see the fight as being any kind of inside job. I am a big fan of De La Hoya, and I think he blew away Trinidad early, and even with blowing three or four rounds, won a close fight. I DON'T think it was a fix. That implies a lot of people have a lesser than stellar moral standing. And I'm not for calling people on something like that, unless I have PROOF, not evidence. PROOF. Because a stigma liek that, is hard to break. (By the way, Jerry Roth, a judge in that fight, I Hate, for that very DLH/Trinidad fight, and I still don't think he was paid off)

      I'm not at all. I don't like Mayweather. I respect his ability in the ring and simply understand that he's not a ducker/coward. You are an outspoken mayweather discrediter. You are the Yang to Dios' Yin. Your only contribution, if you can call it that, to this site is attempting to discredit Floyd at any opportunity.

      When presented with facts you ignore them. When prevented with more facts you post somebody else's opinion and take it as law. We get it, you don't like Floyd. You fail to realize that most people aren't complete sheep and when show the 2 sides of the argument; they point at your side and laugh.

          I can understand how people score the first fight for Castillo.. I really can. It was a close bout and the outcome could've been read either way by the judges... but it wasn't close to a robbery. That term is thrown out way too often.

            I'd agree with that. Robbery is like, if Erik Morales would have won the fight with Zahir Raheem. Ths is just a fight that IMO SHOULD have gone to Castillo, but could have gone, either way.

              It was a robbery because it wasnt even close. Castillo owned that black ass in the first fight.

              I also think he won in the rematch IMO.

                I'd say you need to learn how to score fights then. I think you and 3-4 other haters of Mayweather are sitting on the lonely side of the fence thinking Castillo won the rematch.

                  Black ass? Jesus, that's disgusting. You're a bastard.

                    You sound like a Mayweatherite to me. And, it's YOU who fail to realize that people aren't sheep. You think you can spew nonsense as a smoke screen to obscure justification for a valid point. This is worse than "ignoring facts" for all it does is tend to prove the point I've made in everybody's mind. Furthermore, I think it's ironic that you think you speak for all the people that you have now stated "aren't complete sheep"? LOL

                    You attack me for my observations that you disagree with. That's fine with me because this is a friggin boxing blog, and because I'm not concerned with trying to convince you of anything. It's funny because your hostility towards anything negative said about Floyd, caused you to completely miss all the good points I've made about him. But, when I see some certain Mayweatherites spreading inuendo and disinformation for no other reason than to build up their hero, then I will respond. When Dios Dominicano stated that Tszyu ran from Floyd, I challenged this bit of nonsense and lo and behold eventually showed that there is a valid argument to be made that it was the other way around.

                    If you don't like an open debate about boxing, then why are you here?

                      That's kind of funny since the poll right now shows 70% in favor of Castillo.
