    wow...this fight was not even close. Mayweather lost by a good 4 rounds. It is shameful that things like this can happen in this sport.

    no offense, but you suck at scoring fights. if you didn't have 5 of the first 6 for Mayweather, you REALLY cannot score fights

      Mayweather DID lose this fight, there's no doubt about it. He won the rematch, but he shouldnt be able to call himself undefeated.

      I wonder if the judges had called this one correctly whether Floyd would still have all the nut huggers he's got now.

        All the announcers had Mayweather losing by about 4 rounds too.

          Don't get me wrong...I think Mayweather is pound for pound the best right now but he lost this fight plain and simple.

          Mayweather gets frustrated if you don't allow him to look pretty. If you rough him up, push him around, and bully him like Castillo did then you can beat him.

            Bodes well for Ricky Hatton, then.

              You know I have not watched this fight probably since it happened but I do remember getting the distinct feeling Castillo won when I did watch it live.I did not score it then and could not say now I just remember I had the feeling Castillo had won and so did most why do you think there was a rematch.......

                Yes it does. Hatton will take a beating in the begining rounds I think but all that rough fighting will wear on and frustrate Floyd.

                  I believe one of the big keys to Hatton vs. Mayweather is how the referee in the ring chooses to ref the fight.

                  If he is constantly breaking them up then Ricky in in trouble because as long as there is space between the two fighters you are looking at a huge mismatch.

                  If the refs allows them to fight it out and make there own space and junk yard dog it then I think Floyd is in trouble.

                  If your Team Hatton you are not gonna let Jay Nady do this fight and if your Team Mayweather Jay Nady is the only man for the job!

                    that could be a problem because hatton seems to cut pretty easy and i would hate for this fight to get stopped for cuts.
