    Most neutrals would also say that the fight was close enough to be controversial either way. There have been some big robberies over the past decade; PBF-JLC I was not one of them.

      IT was like stealing an old lady's purse in the street. More than a misdemeanor, this was a felony.

        Each fighter won at least 5 rounds. Thats not a robbery sir, its a close fight. There was no way you could say Castillo lost by a wider score than 114-112 and vice versa.

            Saying "no doubt" is bull****. It could have went either way and it went Floyd's way on the official cards. Get over it.

              This poll means nothing, except allowing for all the people who don't like Floyd to make themselves feel better by voting that he "lost" a fight that happened 5 years ago.

              Most of the votes against Floyd are probably by Floyd haters with multi-accounts anyway.

              Again, I will state, regardless of whether a bunch of nobodies on a forum like it or not, Floyd OFFICIALLY won the fight, and is still undefeated at 38-0.

              There have been bigger controversies in boxing over the years, but people's sheer hatred for Floyd make them bring up topics about events that happened half a decade ago. It makes me laugh, it really does.

                Agreed, people really need to put this match to bed. It's old news.

                  No hate here. Floyd was beaten in Castillo I. Hell even Harold Lederman had Castillo up by 4 points. But, Floyd legitimately won the rematch by UD. He learned that he couldn't hang with Castillo going toe to toe and won the rematch by outpointing him. Live and learn.

                    Coyote..
                    What a SUPRIZE.
                    Your still going to get TKO'ed in the 8th.
                    If not earlier...
                    You want to think twice...
                    I think not...

                      Has Harold Lederman got a 100% accurate record then, for all the boxing matches he scores?

                      I'm not going to actually try and prove this statement, as I really can't be bothered, but i think it's safe to say that Lederman won't get ALL of his scoring correct.

                      Floyd may have been beaten in some people's eyes, and in others he won a close decision.

                      For the 3rd time in 4 posts, I will finish saying this, it really doesn't matter what me, you or the next man thinks should have happened 5 years ago. The fact of the matter is that Floyd won, and is 38-0, NOT 37-1.
