    After clearly beating Floyd and getting robbed, should Floyd have been given a rematch.

    Should the loser have given a rematch to the winner? Something is not quite right.

    Yea, he should have just sat there without a championship belt and *****ed like a little girl. That seems to be what you would suggest. Do you pout and cry when something doesn't go your way in life?

    Discuss OPs idiocy folks.

    Wise man say: "Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought to be an idiot, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." Some friendly wisdom for the OP.

    Landed more punches, and was the much busier fighter. The entire arena booed and even the commentators were complaining after the decision was made.. Castillo won

    Total punches do not matter in the scoring of a bout. At all. Your "feelings" do not matter. Let's just get that straight. Bouts should be viewed objectively.

    Fights are scored "round to round." You can win 4 rounds with a positive ratio of +15 punches landed on average, and I could win 8 rounds with a positive ratio of +2 punches landed on average, and I would beat you by decision. Sorry pal, that's how boxing works.

    Unless you're winning 10-8 rounds, your "total advantage" doesn't mean jack ****. Having 1 good round doesn't negate you losing 2 other rounds on the scorecards, even if they were close.

    Regarding this particular bout: Very hard to get the decision when you give up the first five rounds. Just saying.

    Close fight, why not? Castillo was a true champion and never turned down a challenge.

    Each round is a miniature fight and is scored separate and independent of each other, overall accumulation of punches are not relevant,
