Who came the closest to beating Mayweather Jr.?

atsch Please dont go there Luke...You know those fights were not as close as the Mayweather\Castillo fight...Like I said, a close fight doesnt equal robbery...People can make a case for Floyd winning and a person can make case for Castillo winning...Those other fights you mention was not as close and you know it!

 

Eze, did he actually say that???:rofl

 

No no. That was me, comparing it to what he said.

It's stupid.


If this or that happened.

Saying if one thing would of happened is okay but when you make a list of things it just gets stupid.

 

Technically its DLH for actually winning a scorecard but in reality its Castillo.

 

I got ya!:good

 

The only people you can say are Castillo and Zab. Castillo's was due to an injury, but Castillo was doing what he was supposed to do. Zab was just using his natural gifts and being competitive.

Corely and Ndou gave it a shot, but Mayweather was fighting a bit out of character in both fights.

 

Good list. Interesting omission, though.

 

Castillo beat Floyd in their first fight.

 

I had trinidad up at the last round, I felt that Hoya practically gave that fight away

 

This pretty much sums it up. Castillo actually beat Mayweather. That Castillo didn't get the decision or at least a draw is another story. Floyd's 39-1.

 

Jose Luis Castillo BEAT Mayweather in their first fight,
but the judges robbed him.

 

Oscar proved to me in the fight with FMJ how good he really was. When this fight was first announced I thought FMJ would toy with Oscar, bust up his face then stop him in the late rounds. Pretty much what Pac did to him, the only thing is that his talent somewhat overshadowed the fact that he was past his prime at least for a few rounds. FMJ shouldn't brag that he is better than Oscar and should realize that the biggest factor for his win on that night was timing. One fighter at the peak of his game and the other on his way out.

 

Floyd won the oscar fight.

I have never understood the argument for oscar.
He quit jabbing and lost.

 

:good

 

Castillo - PBF
Oscar - PBF

Both were close and clear but in different directions with Oscar PBF won close but clear, with Castillo you can put it any way you want but the punch stat and the perception can't be wrong at the same time, Castillo was robbed in that fight that's a fact, once again Castillo got robbed in that fight.
