    Oh and they do not have to respect my point of view, but they should learn to read what I say because I tell it like I see it and do not give a **** about others think~. Which to me is a crucial aspect in judging fights.

    Lots of peopel let hate or other biases cloud their judgement, I try very hard to not do that, being that I like to bet on boxing and betting with your heart and not your brain leads to boxing handing you your ass (in ********)

So should I repect my opinion or other peoples who have not seen as much boxing as I?
      Why should I conform to a viewpoint that I view as wrong. The majority is not always right btw, do I need to explain this point?

      Now since you watched the fight 5 or 6 times, give me a good explanation of why JLC won, Mayweather not doing enough is not adequet. What 7 rounds did JLC win, and make sure to not forget the 2 point deductions.
      What a piece of trash perspective... lets just assume I know more then everyone... its much easier that way...

      Why even waste my time.

        You don't seem to be able to understand ther people's opinions very well. Just because you've watched more boxing, it does not mean somebody else is wrong if they have a different opinion. A bit ironic that in your sig you have the quote "Free speech is not for the views that you hold dear but for the views that you hate"

          It must suck to not have belief in ones own point of view. Some people know more and some people know less in this world, it is best to know which one you are I guess though. Facts of life~

            They can say whatever they want to say, I can say they are wrong also. I hate ignorence, and not looking at a situation logically, I have yet to see someone really explain why JLC won.


            It is easy to say JLC won, but to explain why you actually think so is much harder, and not a single mother ****er has done that.

            It was a close fight, but to me if you give away 5 of the first 6 rounds winning a decision is almost impossibe (when you take into account the subjective nature of judging fights).

              Because Castillo controlled the fight. His aggression was more effective and he roughed Floyd up a lot on the inside, whereas Floyd was continually backing up, often throwing ineffective punches to the body. Castillo made Floyd fight the wrong fight that night, which is why I think Floyd lost.

                Im still waiting.

                I wont even go into the 116-112 to castillo scores, using modern methods of mathematics and addition, im not sure how that score is possible.

                  I think you could make a case for rounds 5 and 11 for Castillo, which would make it 114-112 for Castillo. At the same time, you can make a case for Floyd just as well. This fight was no robbery.

                  I do think Floyd beat him pretty damn well in the rematch. I had it 117-111. 115-113 is beyond me for that fight.

                    He did not pick up the pace until round 6. After round 6 your right JLC came on hard, but he still did not sweep the last 6 rounds, When you take into account point deduction winning to me is impossible for JLC. If the fight was 15 round Floyd would have lost most likely, but being a 12 round fight that is scored round by round Floyd did enough early to really control the scorecards going into the final rounds~.

                      Nope.

                      Floyd landed the cleaner shots from what i remember, even late on in the fight I think he was landing some big shots. Gambler can you confirm that?

                      Where are these clean effective punches castillo was landing on floyd, i didnt see enough to give Castillo a clear cut decision.
