    Catillo won. Judges did their thing and gifted Floyd the win. Floyd's fans will do their "i have it" but go watch the fight and you'll see that Castillo won and it wasn't even that close.

    Castillo wasnt a push over at all, he was completely shot when he fought hatton, his fight with corrales in just unbelievable, the casttillo fights show, mayweather isnt as good as his fans beleive he is

    No, at the end of the day they screwed Castillo over and give the win to Mayweather.

    Anyone who gave that fight to Floyd don't know boxing. Castillo tested his heart, and he failed the test. Floyd is skilled, but his lack of heart will be his downfall ; he is always scared to mix it up.

    Close fight could have gone either way I scored it 7-5 PBF. What most want tell you is that PBF was injured going into the fight with a bad shoulder. He did the right thing and gave JLC an immediate rematch and won even JLC admitted he was the better man.

    This was Mayweather's first real fight at 135 and he was taking on the number 1 in the division who hadn't lost for 4 years. Castillo outweighed Mayweather on the night and Mayweather was fighting injured, the fight was very close but went to Floyd, not a robbery like some make out, so Floyd gave Castillo a rematch. Second time round Floyd beat Castillo again, this time more decisively. What more do you want?

    Some of the comments on this thread show that some people will never give Mayweather any credit, no matter what he does.

    In a word, 'No'.

    Castillo won, fairly closely but clearly, IMO.

    Haven't seen the 2nd fight yet.

    This argument has been beat to death. Regardless, Floyd has the W on his record. Judges give rounds for different reasons - some may look at knocking the opponents head back, some aggression/activity, and some look like they flip coins. This is why fighters should always go for the KO - leave no questions.

    I saw the fight at the time and thought Castillo edged it, close but he definately won IMO.
