Read this articale about Castillo VS. Mayweather first fight

[Easy-E]

the hbo judges are very biased, that is true, but the fight was very close, i believe it could have gone either way.
superlightweight, those numbers tell a story, but no the whole story, if there was a per round catergory it would be a lot more telling, because a fighter can punch less and still win the majority of rounds.
either way, the fight was close, floyd was injured, and in the second fight, he beat castillo fair and square

[oldgringo]

nah man.

When a fighta does sumthing incredible like say land a 4 punch combo flush, you gotta AT LEAST CALL IT. They din't. Shyt, even round 12 when Morales switched southpaw, Morales got ta ****in biased HBO to give him credit, Lampley huggin em nuts!!!!! Jim goes aftawards " As if to say, CMON Manny, you need a knockout, Go fo it"...WHAT A *****! Din't even called how Pac landed those Manila Ices flush and that thuderous ovaleft hook!!!!. Instead kissed Morales' ass again fo gettin wobbled! Pathetic.

Hey can I ask you something? Who won the fight?

Oh snap I thought it was Medgoen Singsurat...damn...must have been thinking of Rustico Torrecampo. Oh **** nevermind it was Erik Morales.

Either way, he still lost the 1st fight.

uuuhhhh, technically, he did'nt. he has the w and it will go down in history that way. why? because he won

[DiegoFuego]

It's hard to lose a fight when you win 5 of the first 6 rounds as Mayweather did that night. I had Mayweather winning a close one.

Fuego, could you envision a scenario where you could have given the fight to Castillo?

[DiegoFuego]

I almost did, I think I had it 114-112 Mayweather. I remember 2 point deductions, one for each guy, and Mayweather just outclassed him the first half of the fight and won a round later on. Castillo, if he started earlier, could and should have taken that fight.

A reasonable DiegoFuego...I like it!

In this case they sum up the fight nicely. Castillo outfoguth and outlanded Mayweather in the majority of the rounds. The early rounds were close but even early in the fight Castillo had taken the lead.

The fight was horribly scored on top of that with the judges having Mayweather win by 5 and 6 pts, etc.

Anyway, we can do yet another poll just to show every1 once again.
