    Charlo's post fight interview makes it seem he thinks he got lucky with the result.

    You have a point. Its the way I envision him to win but always give Charlo a chance to clip him. But Charlo failed to do that.

    That was extremely disappointing.

    Castano's skill level surprised me. He used subtle tactics to keep Charlo at bay, blocked, stayed away from counters by throwing combos and stepping back. That one round he had no legs, he recovered. Charlo should've done a lot more especially when he had Castano wobbled after the 2nd and later in the fight.

    Why are people calling for a rematch?

    You think he stops Charlo in the rematch? Because if you dont, then what is the point of a rematch? The cards for the rematch are already filled out. If charlos standing, hes not losing.

    Dude should never give Charlo another chance.

    Except there is no possible way to get to a scorecard that wide for Charlo. Hell, the draw result you think is fairer is generous to him.

    Castano was giving away huge physical advantages, home advantage, fighting in a ring the size of an Olympic sized swimming pool and he thought he was going to get a fair shake and they robbed him of his dream and his place in history. I told you they'd rob him and once again I was 100% right.

    That scorecard is on par with the Canelo/Mayweather card. gross.

    With that being said a draw isn't unreasonable. But I gave the fight to Castano. Charlo spent a lot of time throwing at Castanos guard.

    Honestly I thought my 117-111 Castaño score was a little generous to Charlo.

    even with a 10-8 round, a 7-5 scorecard for Castano would be 114-113 Castano.

    I wasn't scoring but it felt like Castano won rounds 2 to 9, then 12 either way.

    No but we can with people like you who had castano wining 10-2 who can't be objective. I scored the fight a draw castano didn't win every close round like you and other Charlo haters want. The 117-111 card was a joke my card is the basically the same as farhood who also scored the fight a draw.

    I was surprised Charlo took this fight. Castano is GOOD.
