Castillo made it a fight, if it wasn't for Castillo that **** would've been a snooze-fest. Castillo pressed Mayweather and rocked him several times.
Mayweather didn't wanna be there and he was relieved to hear the bell.
Castillo dug himself a big hole in the early rounds. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that Mayweather won a couple of the late rounds in order to seal himself a decision win.
The last time I watched it, I didn't score it. It sure looked like Castillo had it, but that is why fights are scored round-by-round, so general perception doesn't always give it to the guy who has the big rally at the end.
Back when I did score fights, I had it for Mayweather. I still contend that I am a terrible judge though.

I watches the fight live with a couple of my friends and they were all screaming "robbery!"...
Since when do you get rewarded for running the whole fight and not landing 1 meaningful shot?
Mayweather didn't even tickle Castillo that fight.
I felt castillo got the better of floyd in this fight but i certainly do not agree with your take that floyd did not land a single shot and was running.
I personally would like to see some what floyd did in that fight now a days; he would be more entertaining mixing it up between fighting on the outside and the inside throwing combinations instead of pot shooting

Floyd won 6 rounds....Castillo won 5 and one was even due to the judge taking away a point.
Simple as that.

I guess it's down to the judges, those ****ing las vegas judges are infamous for their decisions...
I'll tell you what, have a normal boxing fan that never seen the fight before, that never heard about the controversy regarding this fight, and let me know who he/she thinks won the fight.
I can guarantee you they won't have it for the running chicken Mayweather...

Simple as that.
In 8 out of 12 rounds mayweather laid back in the ropes hoping for a flashy meaningless counter to impress those dumb judges...
