    Why do Floyd fans make up that he schooled castillo In the rematch?

    Did they actually watch the fight? I rewatched it and what's clear is that castillo won the first fight much easier than mayweather won the rematch. Was 115 113 mayweather on two cards and hbo had it 115 113. Floyd largely outlanded on power punches again. So why do his fans have to pretend it was some kind of shut out win? There should have been a 3rd fight

    Floyd took his soul. Absolute masterclass by Floyd. Manny wishes he had a dangerous lion like Castillo on his resume.

      I agree. They also try to act like the Maidana rematch was a schooling which wasn't true. It was an 8-4 fight in which Floyd got away with a very excessive amount of holding and should have been penalized imo.

          Both fights close.

          Obviously the first fight was closer than the second.

            They know Castillo clearly won the first fight so they overstate how good Mayweather was in the rematch. I thought that was obvious.

              I don't know why they have to exagerrate and lie about wins for.

                You sound like a HUGE Mayweather fan not a neutral observer. I thought Castillo won the first fight by throwing and landing more punches. Mayweather deserved to win the rematch but not by some huge soul stealing amount in my opinion.

                  Agreed, people didn’t pay attention to the 2nd Maidana fight. He ate some leather in that fight despite all the holding.

                    Mayweather ran like a girl in the Maidana rematch.

                    People like Steven A. Smith ripped and criticized De La Hoya for running in the Trinidad fight but defend Mayweather when he does it vs Maidana.
