    Just saw Mayweather-Castillo I for the First Time...

    I thought Mayweather pulled it out. I know I'm in the minority, but it definitely wasn't a robbery. I even think a draw would've been entirely fair. Here's my scorecard:

    ROUND_____1__2__3__4__5__6__7__8__9__10__11__12__TOTAL
    Mayweather_10_10_10_10_10_9__9__9__10__9___9___9___114
    Castillo_____9__9__9__9__9__9_10_10__9___9__10__10___112


    Notes:

    - I did think Mayweather won the first 5 rounds by clean, effective punching while avoiding most of Castillo's pressure and shots. If you were to give any of these rounds to Castillo you might give him rd. 3, which was the closest but I still think Mayweather took it.

    - Castillo got a point deducted in round 6, Mayweather got a point deducted in round 10.

    - The ref (Drakulich) wasn't as bad as the announcers made him out to be. Thought both point deductions were valid enough, though he might've trying to make up for the 1st call with the 2nd.

    - The official scorecards were too wide for Mayweather (Anek Hongtongkam 116-111, John Keane 115-111, Jerry Roth 115-111)

    - Who does everyone think won round 10? I think it's by far the most important close round. It tipped my scorecard from a draw to a Mayweather win.

    Floyd lost........his face said it all at the end, he knows he lost. But he wanted a rematch to avenge the loss. He got his rematch, he won.
    Job done!

        I felt it was a close fight that was edged by Mayweather.

            I had FMJ losing their first fight tbh,but it did not matter because he came back and dominated JLC..It was a great fight that could have went either way imo,I don't think anyone can be mad at the outcome..

                It wasnt a robbery. But the scorecards were a joke.

                  Floyd won, his face says he won not he lost, he went right to the corner up on the ropes with his hands up, he knew when they were announcing it, castillo did better than most thought he would so that's why HBO thought he won, but writers and judges said Floyd won, listen to ellerbe when castillo walked over, he was yelling "and new, and new"

                  lederman is sometimes scores fights with a warped mind.

                    when lederman gave the 10th to castillo I laughed.
