Mayweather vs Castillo appreciation thread: still a hot topic after 14 years

[therealpugilist]

Pacquiao was not brought up In this thread one time until you decided to do so. What exactly does he have to do with this particular fight?

any suggestions on the next fight to be reviewed.....

I'm scoring the rounds right when the bell ends before they show the punch stats I don't want that distorting my impression of the round. I noticed people on here gave round 8 to Castillo but I don't see it. They mentioned after Floyd only threw 4 power shots but I think his quick jabs throughout the round were more than anything Jose did.

Round 8 10-8 Floyd

Round 9 10-9 Castillo

86-84 Floyd

any suggestions on the next fight to be reviewed.....

Actually a few come to mind. Mosley vs De La Hoya 1, Bojado vs Jesse James Leija, Lewis vs Holyfield 2, Ayala vs Tapia 2, Barkley vs Hearns and Marquez vs Barrera. There are many more, you came up with the Idea(and It's a good one) so It's your show.

Idk man....people might think you're an alt of mine or vise versa lol


some one needs to slow mo this fight...a lot of the punches I thought landed for each guy were misses this time....I watched it with the sound low, didnt want the commentary to play a part



Pac maybe won 3-4 rounds


7-5 either way or a draw is good with me....the difference was Mayweathers accuracy....if castillo got going early on he could have pulled it out but Floyd put too many rounds in the bank by round 6-7...it was uphill for castillo

this fight was so hard to score man

I give Castillo most of the last rounds. He pounded the crap out of Floyd's nuts.
Floyd did bank a lot of rounds until Castillo made the fight nasty & dirty on the ropes. That fight was and is hard to score. So many ways to score that fight. I struggle. But I still think 51 vs 49 Castillo won.

Yet I ask myself if I feel this way because nobody ever did that well against Floyd???

Gotta question yourself right???

I second Marquez Barrera

[El-blanco]

Floyd put on a show that round and then got the point taken away.

9-9

95-93 Floyd

If manny' many Pac's t@rd legion think PAC won, they need to compare his so called victory over Floyd, with a guy who Most people believe beat Floyd. I believe Castillo beat Floyd. Where is the outrage?? Where is the **** slow mo investigation????

I executed a ore-emptive strike on delusional t@rds trying to ressurect PAC to the main man. He was exposed, case closed.

Sorry for throwing his name in the mix.... Castillo didn't cry as much getting robbed, nor did he make idiotic excuses about tight socks, God talks, shoulder pain, etc....

Castillo beat Floyd is my position.

Round 11
Very tough round to score and I think most people would give it to Castillo on default because of him instigating the close quarters combat, but I really felt Floyd got the best of those exchanges and he landed the cleaner punches.

10-9 Floyd

105-102 Floyd

There may be a total of 3-4 people on this board that truly think Pacquiao won. I agree with you, Castillo deserved the W against Floyd. I think therealpugilist came up with a pretty good Idea here with reviewing videos and getting different peoples opinions. Hopefully It will help to make a change on this board because It sure needs It.
