    So that is your answer, what is agreed upon as one of the worst decisions in the history of boxing.

    Very well the Mayweather-Castillo decision ranks right up there with Holyfield Lewis.

    lol exactly!!!! i think its time to watch this fight again and score it to see what i come up w this time.

    mayweather thought he lost that fight the same way trinidad thought he lost to DLH and the same way bradley thought he lost to pac. if it was such a "clear" victory for mayweather why did he think he lost?

    Marquez might have landed "better" punches, whatever that means... but still, Pacquiao landed MORE punches, threw MORE punches, and landing at better connect %. Unlike whether the punches "looked better", the characteristics I mentioned actually win you the rounds.

    Pac looked bummed because he put on a sucky performance. He still won though, regardless of whether he looked bad doing it. Like Maidana/Mayweather 1. Mayweather looked bad but still won.

    what rounds do you have problems with? I bet you scored every round for Castillo and except for round 1 where you gave that one to Matthysse just for the hell of it

    I remember giving it to Castillo but the real injustice was that fighter's usually have to do that bit extra to overthrow a defending champion. Castillo had done enough to retain.

    What did the OP ask...??? Now a fight where a fighter outlanded someone by a 3 to 1 margin and did not get the win...!!!

    So, I showed him a fight that matched his criteria.

    you cannot have been born prior to 1975, wtf is this ****ogy? If you get outlanded in a round you lose, its as simple as that. You dont get points for looking asthetically pleasing while throwing a punch. This is not figure skating, or dancing with the stars. What the fuk is going on in this world?

    Really...??? :patsch:patsch:patsch Seriously...??? :patsch:patsch:patsch

    So hypothetically speaking, Boxer A throws 50 punches, 40 jabs and 10 power punches and connects on 20 jabs (50%) and 7 power punches (70%) while Boxer B throws 20 punches, 15 jabs and 5 power punches and connects on all his jabs and power punches (100%).

    Then by your estimation and criteria Boxer A, housing a 27 to 20 connect rate automatically wins the round...??? Thats idiotic...!!!

    Scoring is not based on connect percentage in the professional ranks, amatuers it is, but not in the realm of professional boxing...!!!

    Also, you have to factor in the variables, such as Boxer A might throw a power punch that is blocked by Boxer B with his glove(s). Still considered a power punch, still registered as a punch landed, yet that punch has no ill affect on Boxer B.

    ^^^So you saying marquez should have got a decision win over pacquiao in 1st and 2nd fights sinc marquez out landed pacquiao with better percentage? Btw in percentage in those 3 fights, marquez had the better percentage then pacquiao.

    You must be blind cause after the 12 round ended in the maidana vs mayweather 1, floyd smile which he raise his right gloves high while after the 12 round ended in the 3rd pacquiao vs marquez, pac look bad, upset.
