How Did Floyd Beat Maidana and Castillo? Power punches count more right?

Floyd got a gift decision vs Castillo in the first fight. Credit to him for the immediate rematch that he clearly won.

Thats the problem with using fan scores to justify your personal opinion that GGG won. Many fans don't know how to score a fight and many others use their own scoring system.
In either case, if they disagree with the judges, it doesn't matter because the judges can't use "dramashow's scoring system" or "boilidogs personal punch count", if you get my point.
Unless media members and fans are scoring the fight based on the same rule the judges are required to follow, the score presented is not valid.

It's not written in stone that the computer numbers are correct. Their numbers can be wrong. they could score misses as landed punches or landed punches as misses. They make mistakes.
That said, that fight was a draw. Canelo was giving pain and depositing good body shots throughout the fight. I even got the impression GGG being chopped off and will fall down eventually, but as the rounds flew buy. GGG showed heavy lethal shots that rocked Canelo. Tit for tat the whole 12 rounds. Anyone could have won that night, but I prefer a draw. Both didn't do enough to get the W. They just equally inflicted pain.

Maidana not only landed more power punches, he also bullied Floyd on the ropes. Floyd's ring generalship was non-existant.
Canelo never once put GGG against the ropes and was outpunched at a higher margin.
So my question is, how did Floyd win?
