      That's in interesting observation. Because if you will review the fight (just go to You Tube), you will see Castillo intentionally targeting the shoulder. NOW, if the shoulder were injured by Castillo in the fight, then that cannot be used as an excuse by Floyd.

          ......or Pacquiao after the third fight with Marquez. It was priceless how he finished the fight with his chin on his chest and then the surprise as the final judge score went his way. Or maybe it was like Tim Bradley's after scoring his win over Pacquiao? I can't decide. Ah well, that's boxing. Leaving your opponent unconscious on the canvas stops that from happening, doesn't it Hughey?

              Dirty or clean, bad judging, payoffs...etc...all a part of boxing. We know that. The issue with Castillo v Floyd I is a bit more penetrating tho. That's why people tend to focus on it.

              As I see it, from this famous robbery, Floyd began a false ascension. While boxing and Floyd made alot of money, it really screwed Floyd's potential legacy and at the end of the day made people more cynical towards the sport. Floyd really did have the skills to be considered ATG and maybe even GOAT, had he been allowed to approach it in this fashion. A simple loss or two doesn't make a difference in the face of true greatness.

                why are you still so upset about manny getting KTFO? Is it healthy for you to be so traumatized over a boxing match?

                  This is a topic the mods should just lock already. There are 1000 threads on this already and it happened 10 ****in years ago. Enough already.

                    His very NEXT fight was the rematch. What the hell are you talking about?
