A Question To Floyd Mayweather Detractors

I am not a Mayweather fan and in regards to the Castillo fight he won, period.

As for an overall legacy in the sport though he should have stepped up to the plate more. He should have fought Cotto and Margarito (at the very least).

Boxing greats do not necessarily have to have perfect records - boxing greats do need to fight the best in their division. Mayweather did not do that. IMO he is more concerned with his pocket book than with his legacy in the sport. That tells it all.

 

your view sounds about right to me. however, i do agree with what Abbey said.

 

im not a hater,i dont like him but i respect him,but for me castillo won the fight pretty clearly.

 

also maybe floyd made the immediate rematch to prove he could win period,watch his reaction at the end of the 1st fight he didnt look to confident to me.

The fact is that regardless of what us fans think FLoyd won the fight. Like Walk says, you cant really argue for Castillo considering that Floyd won the immediate rematch in convincing fashion.

Floyd is not the first fighter who was given a decision, nor will be the last. The difference between him and others is that he gave that immediate rematch.

Some other noteable fights where someone was seemingly robbed was I believe Mosley vs DLH 2, Casamayor vs Santa Cruz, Felix Sturm vs DLH, etc..(you can add more if you can think of any)

there are always going to be close fights where a fight can go either way, but what the judges decide is what goes down in the books.

 

i couldnt care less about judges scores,to me castillo won a close but clear decision first time,mayweather won a clear ud second time.

 

Obviously the whole point of it is to try and take away from his career. As one obviously he retired undefeated, so one loss would be a massive difference.

I haven't seen the fight, ill have to watch it sometime, but unless it was a total robbery, people should get over it, but the fact is not everyone will.

And also, people love revving up nuthuggers in general (be it any boxers huggers), so when someones talking about how Floyd eats gold and shits out 100 dollar bills, they throw that out there just to get a response.

Also, not trying to be a dick cause you get your points across in a mature manner and thats great, but the argument that because Floyd clearly won a rematch means he won the first fight is a bit silly. If your logic was right then there would never be rematches.
