Floyd Mayweather Jnr vs Jose Luis Castillo 1?????????

I watched the fight 7 times. I only scored it 3 times. The first one I scored the fight 114-112 for Floyd. The second time around I scored it 114-113 for Floyd. The third time I scored it a draw. I might score the fight again this week.

 

What's betting you score it 114-113 for Castillo?

 

nice avatar dude :good

 

7 rds to 5 for Mayweather.....as for cherry picking....

In their last 6 fights here's how Pacquiao's and Mayweathers opponents match up:

Pacquiao's:

Shane Mosley- Mayweather leftover.... way past his prime. Coming off a loss to Mayweather where he was dominated and a draw with journeyman Sergio Mora (someone he would have killed in his prime). Mosley was 40 years old.

Antonio Margarito- Way past his prime, hadn't won a fight in over 2 years. Coming off brutal KO loss to Shane Mosley. Margarito was 32. Margarito was forced to drain weight and fight Pac at a catchweight

Josh Clottey- never been a top level operator. always good for his divison but no top name. Coming off a controversial close loss to Miguel Cotto. Clottey was 33.

Miguel Cotto- Past his prime but still solid Cotto, very good win for a small guy moving up in weight by Pacquiao. Cotto was WBO welterweight champ. Cotto wasn't in his best shape though and was coming off a controversial close win over Josh Clottey and before that a brutal beatdown KO loss to Antonio Margarito. Cotto was forced to drain weight and fight Pac at a catchweight

Ricky Hatton- Yet another Mayweather leftover. Decent win for a small guy moving up in weight but Hatton was coming off a brutal KO loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr, Hatton was 31.

Oscar De La Hoya- Another Mayweather leftover. De La Hoya was forced to drain weight and fight Pac at Welterweight which is a weight Oscar hadn't weighed for over 8 years!! He was heavier than welterweight for 8 years, it's an incredible strain on the body to go down a division after spending so much time at a higher weight. Making the weight nearly killed Oscar, he had visible IV marks on his arms (Freddy Roach noted) he also looked like a skeleton in the face. De La Hoya was not only severly weight drained, he was way past his prime coming off of a loss to Mayweather Jr and a hard fought decision against tiny Steve Forbes who busted his face up (prime Oscar would have destroyed Forbes). De La Hoya was 35.

Mayweathers:

Victor Ortiz- WBC world Welterweight champ coming off huge win and upset in the fight of the year where he beat Andre Berto knocking him down several times in spectacular fashion to capture Berto's championship belt. Young powerful southpaw. Ortiz was 24.

Shane Mosley- WBA world Welterweight champ coming off HUGE brutal upset KO win over Antonio Margarito. Mosley was past his prime vs Mayweather but coming off a big win he looked excellent in and he was the champ at Welterweight. Mosley was 38.

Juan Manuel Marquez- Lightweight champion moving up in weight coming off of big stoppage wins over top notch fighters Joel Casamayor and Juan Diaz. Gave Pacquaio 2 of his hardest fights earning a draw and losing a split decision in fights where many had Marquez winning both. Fighting at Welterweight effected Marquez' perfomance just as it will in the 3rd Pacquiao vs Marquez fight which is at Welterweight in November but none the less, Mayweather dominated Pacquaio's biggest rival Marquez with ease winning all 12 rounds and knocking Marquez down in the process. Mayweather made what was so hard for Manny look easy. Marquez was 37.

Ricky Hatton- Undefeated long reigning Junior Welterweight champ of the world in the peak of his prime. Coming off a huge winning streak against some of the best Junior Welterweights in the world ending with a big KO win over former Mayweather rival Jose Luis Castillo before the Mayweather fight. Hatton was 29.

Oscar De La Hoya- Coming off a brutal stoppage win over Ricardo Mayorga. Mayweather moved up in weight to fight the bigger De La Hoya at De La Hoya's most comfortable weight and conceded all advantages to De La Hoya in negotiations. De La Hoya was 34.

Carlos Baldomir- WBC, lineal and Ring welterweight champion of the world. Coming off shocking upset over former champ Zab Judah and a KO win over Arturo Gatti. Baldomir was 36.

So you'll see all of Mayweathers opponents are closer to their primes and coming off big wins while all of Pacquaio's are coming off losses and 3 of them coming off losses to Mayweather who beat them before Pacquiao. On top of that you'll see Pacquiao's team made some of his opponents drain weight and fight him at lower weight classes making them weaker on fight night while Mayweather fought them all in their own weight classes and even moved up in weight to fight bigger guys in the weight class they're comfortable in.

 

Who knows. I remember when I first saw Hopkins vs Calzaghe I thought Hopkins won. I watched it again and Calzaghe won pretty comfortably. I might feel the same way about Castillo when I watch it again. I haven't watched that fight in 6-7 months.

 

I was only going off the pattern that seems to be occurring during your scoring of this bout......but yeah, I know what you mean. I've scored a bout, haven't watched it in years, then scored it again for me to give it to the other guy.

 

I had 115-113 castillo

 

Yea I know what you mean Its def possible.

 

you are a rarity on this site to like both Pac and Floyd (quite refreshing)

I get called a ******* cos I dont buy into all the Floyd bull**** that comes out of his mouth and i do believe he is a cherry picker

but if pac fought floyd id go with a floyd win

still think he is a **** tho :good

 

I had it 8-4 for Floyd, the same as 2 of the judges (the other judge gave Mayweather an extra point). Castillo was throwing a lot of punches but a lot of them were landing on Mayweather's guard, or were slipped, and he was coming back with clean counters that landed flush. I could only find 4 rounds to give to Castillo, maybe 5 if I gave him the benefit of some uneffective shots. Classic case of one fighter throwing a lot and looking like he was winning unless you watched closely and realized that most of the shots were blocked.

Regardless, Castillo was given an immediate rematch and if he supposedly won this fight then he should have been able to do it again, right? Well he couldn't get it done, again. The second fight was actually a bit closer and nobody says that Castillo won that one. Just goes to show you people don't know what they're talking about when they talk about Floyd-Castillo.

The record stands at Floyd 2 - Castillo 0. What haters say doesn't matter because regardless of what happens they will be hating anyway.

 

JLC 115-113. Official cards were a ****ing disgrace.
