    I scored the fight even at 114. I thought it could've gone either way but Castillo did look stronger at the end which would make people believe he won the fight. Fights, thank God, are not scored by how well a fighter does at the end, but by adding 12 individual rounds that were scored independently of how they did in previous rounds.

    If PBF was injured, we don't know for sure. However, we do know that the second fight was all PBF. But to say he was never pressured that way in a fight before Castillo is to be ignorant to his previous fights. He was pessured by Chavez, Augustus, and Gerena in similar fashion. Especially Chavez who came at him with all he had and tried to steam-roll him.

      no i aint saying he lost 7 rounds straight!!!
      but i'am saying that if you think castillo lost the first five straight then sorry mate but you either aint seen the fight before,
      or your head is so far up mayweathers ass that you aint gonna give credit to anybody he boxes.
      i scored the fight objectively as i have respect for both fighters even tho they are so different in style.
      i dont care if a fighter is mexican or american, black or white i'll say it how i seen it.
      it's whats known as my opinion!!!!!!
      so come on im interested in how you scored it.....please tell me without quoting something that has already been posted in this thread.
      read my post again and i think you will see that i favour no fighter,
      in my opinion castillo won a close fight but i give respect to floyd for taking a straight rematch which i also state that he won clearly.
      and please stop with the triple post bull**** boxing is about opinion and not trying to be a smart ass and claiming other peoples opinions are wrong.
      AND FACT; yeah that video is bull**** and obviously posted by a castillo fan.
      BUT FACT; some rounds were that close that i dont believe that 5 people outta 10 would have the same scorecards.

If floyd were white or mexican he would be considered the greatest of alltime. Floyd beat castillo twice by Unanimous decision....
        Dude your a ****ing idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!! In almost ebery thread I see you in, you are pulling the race card like a dumb ass!!!!!!!! Just because some people may not like Floyd or have a different opinion of him other than what you or other people that like Floyd have does not make them racists. No one is even talking race, yet you are the only that evr brings it up. Maybe your the one with the issues. ****ING DUMB ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

          Mayweather silenced any controversy about the first fight by soundly defeating Castillo in the rematch.

          Castillo did everything he could to try and win it and still lost.

            first off, I said nothing disrespectful to castillo whatsoever, i think he is a great fighter, but he lost those 1st 5 rounds, that is one of the reason why he came out in the 6th all out like he did. He was getting whooped and that aint opinion, thats fact! Floyd was blocking those shots with shoulders and countering the hell out of him. Secondly, I said nothing about race or nationality, what I said was how could you in your most humble opinion score that fight for Castillo with the early rounds given away and the point deductions? And also smart ass, i referred to your quote only once, those other post was objection to other people opinion, not a triple post. if you dont want your opinion challenged, then don't post your opinion.

              lMAO!!! Mayweather had all kinds of injuries in the first fight.
              Second fight was close also, he won but not like people are making it out to be.He tweeked EXACTLY what he did in the first fight and made it look a little better.

                i definitely think mayweather got a gift, which is sad...i wouldve had it at a draw at best for mayweather, but i had castillo winning.

                  I have to watch the fight again, but they had a rematch and Mayweather won. He should never wear that ugly ass yellow again lol.

                    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
                    I don't believe a word you typed..the fight was won by mayweather 7-5..Your bias makes you contradict yourself..first you said he was given a gift decision then you turn around and say it could have been a draw. So because the judges had the fight 7-5 in mayweathers favor it is a gift but if the judges had it 7-5 castillo it would not have been a gift you are basically saying castillo won 7 rounds straight with the point deductions...how biased is that. Your hatred of the guy clouds your ability to reason objectively. I know many of ****y and arrogant people, but I am not going to go out of my way to take anything from them or downplay their accomplishments. 7-5 in favor of mayweaher is as close as that fight gets period

                      whats interesting is to see how PBF reacted to not having things go his way, as expected. He started taking some shots, pushed around and he got on his bike!
                      Outside of this fight I think Floyd was close to unstoppable before he stepped up to jr welter but he's out of his weight now! It is a matter of time before he gets roughed up or caught by a true welterweight punch,*maybe Castillo?* but definitely if he fights De La Hoya at jr middle! For that matter he better be prepared for a real fight against Shane Mosley. I'll put money on Mosley if the fight happens, wouldn't it be great. See, those guys got his level of talent and have fought the wars against other fighters of that caliber. Floyd's legacy will be ended with big L's when he steps up to either Mosley or the golden boy. But outside of being a giant, conceded, prick Mayweather is a great boxer and usually makes for an entertaining fight.
