I had it a draw, 7-5 for both guys but more times than not Floyd wins by a round or two.....giving away all those early rounds killed Castillo.....fights are scored round by round, not by punch stats....one big round or 2 could swing stats in a major way, but people on this site who claim to be boxing fans are too damn lazy to watch the fights, they just cling on to something they heard without research...well thats the american wayComment

It was a very close fight with several close rounds. I personally felt that Castillo won, but can't get upset that people feel Floyd won. The thing I always say on the subject is this. Floyd did what he was supposed to do in a situation like this and gave Castillo a rematch and clearly beat him. Nothing else you can ask from a fighter that wins a close, tough decision.I had it a draw, 7-5 for both guys but more times than not Floyd wins by a round or two.....giving away all those early rounds killed Castillo.....fights are scored round by round, not by punch stats....one big round or 2 could swing stats in a major way, but people on this site who claim to be boxing fans are too damn lazy to watch the fights, they just cling on to something they heard without research...well thats the american wayComment

thats how I looked at it...Castillo was one of my favs after beating Lil but Bad and Paez...either guy winning or a draw wouldnt have bothered me at all....the injury didnt help his performance but at least he handled the close nod like a G and gave him a rematch right after.It was a very close fight with several close rounds.

JLC is highly underrated as is Corrales who shouldve been in the hall......Gatti is in their yet Corrales passed the same year with a better resume, better skills, and just as much if not more excitement...oh well.....JLC is a HOFer in my book....he and corrales ran **** at 130-135 when floyd left in the early 2000sComment
