    exactly. Castillo landed maybe 2 good punches on Floyd's head all night. he hit nothing but arms and shoulders, yet people had Castillo winning? get out of here

      Emanuel landed a lot of shots and made every second of the fight difficult.

      And as usual, it was less than two weeks notice that Augutus had to prep for the fight.

          How did you read it last year when it was just posted today? Unless you're talking about him stating Augustus was the toughest fight in which case he's stated it a few times.

            It was full of close, competitive rounds, but they all went to Floyd.
            Burton hit Floyd more than he ever has been hit, and his face was more marked up than it ever has been.

              Nope. The rounds were NOT CLOSE. For every two punches Burton landed he got hit with like 12. I never saw Floyd land so many flush shots on anyone before. I thinking maybe Floyd was saying it was his toughest fight because he had to throw so many punches to keep Burton off of him and he just kept charging foward. I dont this fight is the most Floyd has ever been hit. He had a busted nose, which could've came from 1 hard punch. The Chavez fight was tougher than this one. But, Floyd still contends that Burton was the toughest opponent. I'll watch the fight again anyway.

                They were competitive rounds, Floyd has never been hit that much.

                    It wasn't a complete ass beating, but I think Castillo gave Floyd more trouble.

                      Floyd bent Augustus over and pounded the living **** out of him.

                      But a) Floyd broke his right hand in that fight, and had to fight the later rounsd with nothing but a jab and a left hook.
                      b) Floyd traded with Augustus like it was an all out war, and got nailed in the nose, which caused it to bleed perfusely.
                      c) Floyd got hit more in that fight (because of the previous two reasons) more than he has in any other single fight.
