floyd should have a loss to Castillo and a draw with de la hoya....

[Frank Ducketts]

Boxing fans don't have somebody winning clearly. The fight was a close contest, I remember scoring it for Castillo the first time I watched it and for Floyd the second time. Time and time after I can make a case for either a draw or have either one win based on how you like to score rounds.

Good post.

Rule number one of boxing: boxing is not a clean sport.

Very good breakdown of the fight here for anyone who's still in doubt:




As a bonus feature, this video also shows how utterly ridiculous and inaccurate compubox is. If you ever want to demonstrate that fact to anyone, just direct them to this clip.

Anyone who's in any doubt, and actually wants to know who won (flomos need not apply), just watch this guy's breakdown. It's as clear as day.

Castillo 7 rounds to 5

[-PBP-]

4-2 Floyd through 6. My scores from a thread I made a while back:

1 10 - 9 Mayweather
2 10 - 9 Mayweather
3 10 - 9 Mayweather
4 10 - 9 Castillo
5 10 - 9 Mayweather
6 10 - 9 Castillo

After 6: 58-56 Mayweather

7 10 - 9 Castillo
8 10 - 8 Mayweather (Point deduction to Castillo)
9 10 - 9 Mayweather
10 10 - 9 Castillo

After 10: 96-93 Mayweather

11 9 - 9 Draw
12 10 - 9 Mayweather

115-111 Mayweather

That's similar to what I had. I had Floyd up 5-1 after 6. Then I had Castillo winning 4 of the final 6 rounds.

Final score was 114-112 Mayweather.

Castillo got off to a real slow start in that fight.
