    No, he missed more shots than Mayweather. No matter that he landed way more. What's important is how many that missed.

      Never seen this asked before. I predict people more posters will vote Castillo won.

        Was a close fight and most judges don't score body shots as much as they o upstairs. Anyhow, it's funny in round 8 it should be 10-8 TBe because Castillo lost a point and not 9-9

          I thought Mayweather won by a point, but it could have gone either way.

                That is your way of scoring a fight and not mine. I give the round to the boxer who lands more and better punches. I don't score rounds for the boxer who made him miss unless he made him pay with more punches. In other words landed punches count for you but missed punches don't count against you. If they did then Clottey beat Pacquiao without throwing many punches because he blocked and slipped so many punches. Never mind that Pacquiao threw and landed many more punches. If missing punches really cost you points high volume punchers would be afraid to let their hands go for fear of missing punches and losing points. Boxing is scored by punches landed not punches blocked or slipped. Making punches miss is it's own reward because you didn't get hit. Mayweather did get hit a lot by Castillo. If you are kidding or being sarcastic that's different.

                  I thought the fight was close but Castillo clearly won it for me by landing more punches in more rounds. I have watched it and score it several times and always have Castillo winning by a few points. It was close but not razor close to me.

                    Castillo boxed very well. Worked the body great. Made Floyd think about them. But like maidana in their first fight. Castillo couldn't maintain that work thru the end of the fight.
