    he really lost that first fight, hence, he's not really undefeated. That's all that counts.
    So this is why you made this thread-to claim Floyd wasn't undefeated. This had nothing to do with what Max said, which is why you claimed to make this thread.

    14 years later and you are still upset that he got the decision in a close fight. Wow!

      The problem is that you don't get to score the fight after the fact. Floyd won 4 of the first 5 rounds by close margins but those scores where in the books. After that Castillo had a clear advantage and won many rounds by a wider margin. If one simply looks at that fight and asks overall who won the fight I think most would say Castillo. But in boxing the judges don't get to go back and rescore those first 5 close rounds.

        I had 10-2 for castillo. If floyd didn't run for 12 rounds I think he will be ko.

          I'm guessing English is not your first language.

            I'm not upset about anything.

            I did make the thread because of what Max said.

            The poll results solidify why I made the previous comment. Floyd got a gift win in his prime best form. He's not unbeatable and based on that, what Kellerman said is not out of the question of possibly being accurate.

            Besides, why I made the thread really doesn't concern you or those who question my reasoning for it. You're not required to come in here and comment. You don't like it, leave.

                No one is unbeatable, we all know that and no one is claiming otherwise. That has nothing to do with what Max said. There are several threads that ask if Floyd is really undefeated. Is that really worth discussing in 2016?

                You got asked because there are a half dozen of these threads in NSB already and because you made it when the hot topics were ESPN's list or the Manny/Bradley fight. Had you put this in the history section, posters would've understood it and not commented the way they did.

                I am choosing to not like it and comment, which is allowed in a forum.

                  we are basically singing the same tune....

                  there is really nothing in floyd castillo 1 that really relates to what max said...

                  the greatness of a fighter does not really depend on 1 fight....

                  sadly, the op seems to be interested only in posts that agree with him...
