What do you believe was the score? And who really won? Please dont just say Castillo clearly won. Explain why u think he won and why he couldnt do it the second time around, same goes if you believe Mayweather won the fight.
Ive watched a few times. I had 7-4-1 for Mayweather or i guess u can say 7 rounds to 5. Lots of close rounds but those close rounds Castillo worked more, Mayweather threw less but more acurate. lots of peole show the compubox stats but u should check round by round, not total fight. if u would just score the fight at the end most people would've scored it for Castillo but fights are based on round by round scoring. I think i gave Mayweather the first 5 rounds. no way Castillo won 7 in the row after that.
I watched it recently and was surprised that I had Castillo, close but clearly. He really dragged Floyd into his kind of fight, denying him ring centre, working that body and clocking him upstairs.
PBF won the first 5 or 6 rounds of that fight and won at worst 2 rounds after that. 7-5 PBF is my score.
Bull**** myth that FLoyd won the first 5-6 rounds. Castillo was already scoring some good points, specially body shots as early as the third round. 7-5 Castillo!
My score card rnd: Floyd-Castillo 1: 10-9 2: 10-9 3: 10-9 4: 10-9 5: 10-9(close round, it becomes obvious that Floyd's shoulder was hurting, but he landed most of the (legal) punches while Castillo cut the ring off well) 6: 9-10 7: 9-10 8: 9-9 9: 10-10(I watched it twice and don't know who to give it to. Floyd showed good defense and landed cleaner, but Castillo showed aggression and cut the ring off good) 10: 8-10 11: 10-9 12: 10-9 (Interesting round, Castillo landed more shots, but yet again, half of them are below the belt. I would have given it to him based off ring genralship, but Floyd stole the round in the last minute) 115-112 Mayweather
7-5 Castillo. After a poor 1st half of the fight, Castillo was able to get inside on Floyd and pressure him well. He didn't do a ton of clean work, but he landed consistently enough to win the rounds. Obviously Floyd's injury didn't help matters. The reason Castillo couldn't do it again was because Floyd adapted his gameplan to completely focus on moving and potshotting without getting into any exchanges. It also helped a solid bit that Joe Cortez was the ref. Floyd tied Castillo up whenever he got close and good ole "Fair but Firm" broke them up quickly as per usual.
Too many people talk about this fight and swear blind that Castillo won, but have never even bothered to watch it
Floyd landed the cleaner punches and clearly won. Anyone else that says otherwise is just a liar and a hater. Castillo attempted to use his weight advantage to push Floyd around and he really couldn't. Most of his shots were blocked.
The reason Castillo couldn't do it again was because Floyd's should was a lot better. Get off that Cortez shi.t. Breaking the quick help Castillo if you watch the fight.
i havent watched the fight in a good 2 years or so . but i clearly remember that castillo won but floyd rematched n won convincingly. floyd hurt his hand in the first fight i believe
