The majority of boxing fans know that Castillo beat Floyd. Floyd fans hate that fact and get defensive everytime the fight is brought up.

Castillo-floyd 1 or maidana-floyd 1? Which robbery is worse?

Neither fight was a bad decision, but Madaina 1 was closer. Probably was a 6-6 fight.
Floyd clearly won 6 rounds on my card for Castillo 1 and I had another round or two too close to call.

Maidana.
I thought Castillo got blatantly robbed back when it happened like everyone else. Watched it again years later and was completely shocked how the commentary swayed my opinion of the rounds. Had it 115-113 Mayweather up rewatching.
I wasn't paying attention to the Maidana fight (was at a party) live, figured Maidana did well but didn't get the W. Rewatched it the next week, giving the close rounds to Floyd (I usually give close rounds to whomever I think the judges will give close rounds to) and I still had it for Maidana.
Castillo wasn't robbed, but Maidana was. Just my opinion.

I thought Maidana I was the worse robbery. Maidana outworked him, had him running and crying all night. Completely took him out of his game. The Castillo fight was close, but Castillo was clearly robbed. The irony of that fight is that Floyd blamed his shoulder as an excuse why he didn't perform at his best for that fight...he would later dismiss Manny's shoulder injury.

Don't forget, Maidana was supposed to be a cherry-pick. Another slow, brawler, flat-footed Latino fighter who rushes forward and has gaping holes in his defense. It was a cherry-pick gone wrong.
