    Damn man, anticipation was in the air lol when Floyd sr said to pretty boy Floyd Mayweather after the Pacquiao fight "whatever happens son I still love you." This was a black eye to the sport, Btw to put it politically correct Floyd was "never the victim of a wrong decision." If everyone had this blessing, tons of dudes would have more wins and better looking resumes. Smh how only one fighter in history never lost a fight "that either guy deserved to win." What luck.

    So let me get this straight, pbf lost a fight where he won the first 5 rounds. You're trying to tell me that pbf didn't win another round after the 5th??? You're being dishonest if you say yes.

    Look, im not trying to break through your man crush on Floyd. . and like i said, i dont have every flipping detail of the fight committed to memory, . . .

    What i do remember of the fight is that floyd took the first two rounds comfortably, then Castillo started coming on in the 3rd and pressuring Floyd. Maybe i had it pretty much even up to about the 8th or 9th round and if im not mistaken, they BOTH had points deducted. I know for certain i had Castillo winning 10-12.

    Dont really care if you agree or not. I still maintain Floyd lost.

    Zero imo, at most 1

    Castillo 1 is the only one you can genuinely make a case for Floyd losing, that could have went either way

    Floyd didn’t lose to Maidana 1, the best case you can make for Maidana is a draw

    Floyd clearly beat Oscar. I get why people score it for Oscar, but scoring RBR Floyd clearly outboxed him

    And if anyone brings up any other Floyd fight other than those 3 as a Floyd loss then they DKSAB.

    1 for me is even plausible castillo #1 that's it. Imo Maidana should have been disqualified in their first fight and he got outclassed in the rematch. Anyone who argues Oscar beat Floyd is not being objective imo

    Pbf clearly won the first 5 rounds jlc wasn't coming on in round 3. 5-0 pbf. You need to go back and rematch the fight because you're talking nonsense.

    Castillo vs Mayweather 1 was a close fight Mayweather won most of the early rounds, but Castillo comeback well in the 2nd half of the fight. I think a few debatable moments in that fight determine on how you score it. How did you score the 11th round ? when Mayweather stood in the pocket and traded with Castillo ? Castillo landed more punches but Mayweather's punches were more eye catching a close debatable round. How did you score the rounds with the point deductions ? How many rounds did you think Mayweather banked early on ? i could see a case for both fighters winning this fight.

    ODLH vs Mayweather i didn't think this fight was controversial at all really, the 1st half of the fight was competitive but Mayweather took over in the 2nd half of fight, and won in region of 116-112 maybe 115-113 being generous to ODLH.

    Maidana vs Mayweather 1 i think it would be a stretch to have Maidana winning the fight, but i can definitely see an argument for a draw. Maidana did well early on roughing up Mayweather. But i did feel like Mayweather won majority of the rounds in the 2nd half, i'd say a 115-113 win for Mayweather or a draw.

    Honestly none.
    Saying Maidana beat him is silly.

    Its basically like this.

    You could argue a win for either fighter vs castillo 1.

    You could argue he should have been dq'd vs Zab

    You could argua a draw for Maidana 1.

    The rest, not taking in regard the circumstances, Floyd won amd he's never been convincingly beat.
    And thats how it is.

    You don't win rounds by running away & dancing Err Unless your name is Floyd Mayweather jr He should have had Four losses Castillo & Maidana 1 & Two DQ losses to Victor Ortiz & Zab Judah Add to that The Pac fight should have been made a no contest due to the IV gate scandal

    Floyd cried like a baby sobbing " Maidana roughed me up & beat me up yet the ref did nothing to stop him It wasn't fair " :crybaby2::crybaby2: Poor wittle Floyd was used to Joe Cortez protecting him & wasnt used to having to FIGHT! himself . Leonard cuddled & caressed himto console him:eaea::eaea:
