Meldrick Taylor vs Floyd Mayweather at 140

You're acting like a complete jackass yourself, yet you have the nerve to lay the claim on someone else.

 

It was poor. Lazcano, even at his best, was a B- fighter.

 

You're telling me that the ringside observers had it for floyd in the first fight.
I showed you that they didn't.

You know more people feel castillo won and you know the rematch was a direct result of a robbery.

Who gives excuses for a win?
"my shoulder was hurt, I couldnt jab like I wanted to"

Why the **** does that matter if you're the winner?

 

See what a I mean? Pure stupidity.

 

Are you on the wind up?

 

Where did you show us that drop out? Lampley and Merchant are commentators. Ring side observers = the media.

What is wrong with you?

 

No. I truly believe you are as stupid as you make yourself appear. Total truth. No wind up.

Castillo, Corrales, Mayweather, Lazcano, Julio Diaz, Johnston, Frietas, Casamayor.

Poor division. :rofl

 

So when you say lampley says it in the 2nd fight...... ???????

Good job showing what a ****ing tool you are.

 

No you did not. Merchant said "many here had Castillo winning" . Who is he refering to? The other announcers? The crowd that was booing the decision? When did he have time to poll ringside observers?

I also know that a lot of times, judges, and people watching the fight up close see an entirely different fight than people watching on T.V. All 3 judges as well as many rignside observers, according to Lampley, had the fight for Mayweather. There was a rematch because there was debate as to who won.

Merchant asked him why he had such a difficult time considering Mayweather had said it would be an easy fight beforehand. If he hurt his shoulder, that's a perfectly reasonable answer.

 

At the beginning of the fight. Watch it for once and you'd know.

 

At what point were all of those fighters active in championship class at 135 at the same time? They weren't, you tool. Johnston - who i don't esepcially rate - was the man, then Castillo became the man by squeaking past him (and drawing with him in the rematch). At that point there were no real standout fighters in the division, and certainly nobody who could meaningfully claim to be p4p material. Mayweather then 'beat' Castillo, made a few pretty 'meh' defences against B- fighters then moved up. It started getting interesting as a division again around the time that Floyd moved up to 140. It was at that time that you had some quality in the division.

 

No you ****ing ******, i'm talking about you citing lampley as saying ringside observers, then ignoring it when it happens in the first fight.

You're obviously trying to blow floyd here, and it shows.

 

I had the fight as a draw and can understand those who have either guy a point ahead as a couple rounds were too close to call. The UD was a gift as fight should have been a draw or MD and could have gone either way.

 

Opinions from some ringsiders.

Running theme was Floyd controlling the first half of rounds with his jab and Castillo outworking him in the last half of rounds with his body work." - Michael Nelson

"I had Castillo coming on strong to win 114-113. Could I have scored it for Floyd? The 11th round which I gave to JLC was very close, so reversing that one does give Floyd the fight on my card. That said, I believe I gave Floyd the benefit of the doubt in more of the close ones - and when you need to give a fighter every benefit of the doubt, it's hard to say he was a worthy winner."

"Before tallying my scorecard, I believed Jose Luis retained his championship by his work in the latter rounds. Once he figured out the Mayweather conundrum, Castillo pressed harder and was effectively aggressive whereas Mayweather relied on defense and counterpunching. I like the stronger guy and the one who lands more.

Those scorecards were awful. I can see my score reversed, a draw or a wider margin in Castillo's favor. There were close rounds, but there were many more clear ones for the champion." - Joeseph R. Holzer

"As is sometimes the case with contentious decisions, the judges seemed to have scored the fight as it was expected to play out or at least seem to have been influenced by their preconceptions. Castillo put forward the greater volume of work and seemed to hurt the hometown fighter on a couple of occasions. He was the clear winner on my card." - Matt Chudley

 

Hurt should and 2 broken ribs. I mean considering you can hear Roger Mayweather talking about it in his corner during the fight, must have been another scam!

I mean he should have been like Manny and blamed it on the gloves, socks and giving blood! Much more believable.
