    quite a few people saw mayweather winning the fight. not sure why their opinion doesn't count as much as yours, since that's how they saw it too.

    since their entitled to their opinions, i guess your claim that it was a draw or a castillo win isn't fact. so I guess they could refute your statement.

    not sure where you're going with this.

      These 3 rounds are Castillo's best rounds, this video was done by a Castillo nut-hugger, 9 rounds are missing here. Lol, one of these rounds are edited by this guy, I wonder why.

      If you have any brain, after seeing Castillo's best 3 round, you should figure out who won the fight and his name is PBF!

        ROFL.

        Like Gunstar stated, I love how that video shows CASTILLO's best rounds of the entire fight.

        I wonder why he didn't put rounds:

        1,2,3,4,5,8,11

        People tend to forget the first half of the fight is worth just as much as the second half. DOES ANYONE ****ING REMEMBER THE FIRST 6 ROUNDS OF THIS FIGHT? FLOYD WON 4 OR EVEN 5 OF THEM EASILY.

        Saying Floyd was given a "gift" is absolutely a ridiculous statement. Floyd won a VERY close fight that could of been scored either way. Unfortunately for Castillo fans and Floyd haters, Floyd won a fair, but close decision.

          Jesus Chavez fought Eric Morales with one hand for nearly 8 rounds, Gatti has broken his hands God knows how many times, so has Cotto, Malignaggi and a bunch of other fighters and have found ways to win. PBF lost that fight period, why are people bringing the second fight up since the subject is the first fight? Can't stand that PBF lost?

            Look at the comp.

            Who are these guys fighting?
            Gatti fights B level fighters when he wins, and he gets crushed when he fights A level...I love watching the guy fight, but that is the truth.

            Malignaggi, fought Cotto, only real big name guy and lost

            Cotto??? which fight did he get hurt in?


            And this isn't like the first time Mayweather has fought hurt...he had hand problems since the start of his career...

              I'm not debating the level of comp, if that was the case, I thought Jesus Chavez had a tougher time against Eric Morales than PBF did against JLC. What I'm saying is that eventhough PBF got the decision and many thought he lost the fight, you can not blame PBF's performance on his shoulder. Getting hurt in fights is nothing new to these guys, as you very well said, PBF has sustained hand injuries through out his whole career and that never stopped him before.

                i re-watched this fight about 4 weeks ago and scored it to castillo by one point 115-114.
                but commented very close next to 4 rounds which could have been judged either way.
                i think alot of the controversy about the decision is the 116-111 and 115-111 twice that just adds to the theory of this being a major robbery.
                in the second fight altough floyd won alot more clearly than the first fight the judges came in with 116-113 and 115-113 twice as is they were giving castillo much more credit because of the public opinion of the first fight.
                in my opinion castillo won the fight although it was close, infact very close but he won plain and simple.
                but the decision went against him as it sometimes does in this game!
                the fact remains though that castillo is the only man floyd has ever faced twice,
                and unusually for floyd i believe the rematch was actually about securing his legacy rather than making money.
                when all is said and done and future boxing fans look at the record books there will still be two big fat W's in the win column for floyd.

                  What in the world does me "hating" on Mayweather have anything to do with racism? I don't care if he's black white or green, I go based on his boxing skillz not the color of his skin. I don't like Mayweather b/c he's a ****y SOB. I don't get any satisifaction for "hating" on him. I think he's a great boxer the best out there right now and one of the greats of all time. I won't take that away from him. But doesn't mean I have to like him. And I guess since he's black then automaticly its "Oh he's bashing the black guy! RACISM!!..." yeah very typical type of thinking from ignorant people such as yourself.

                  But I digress, Mayweather was beaten fair and square in the first fight and was given a gift decision. Wether your a Mayweather fan or not, you cannot, without a shadow of a doubt, refute that statement. At BEST, it was a draw. And that's giving Mayweather a gift. That's all Im saying. This isnt about "hating" on anyone or bashing a particular race or anything.. I'm telling you how I saw it. Everyone is entitiled to their opinion and how they saw it and that's why I'm here. To conversate with people with similar and opposing views and get insight from diff sources. Bigtime9, you need to grow up.
                  How is it a gift decision when Castillo lost like the 1st five rounds, the same rounds that video doesn't show. People who haven't seen the fight, ask your self why would somebody only show 3 rounds that aren't even consecutive rounds. That video is made by a **********, they are bred to be spin doctors!!!

                    You know Jose, what is fact is that Floyd has W in the win column for that fight, that is FACT!

                      I dont see how u can have castillo up 1 when he lost the 1st five rounds and the point deductions, I know u not saying Floyd lost 7 rounds straight.
