    Mayweather lost by 2 points.. would've been 3 if Castillo didn't get deducted.. but he also knocked him down in Round 2 and it didn't count

    wow.. i mean i heard it was a robbery but I didn't think it was clear.

    Mayweather says he hurt his hand. It doesn't count.

    Mayweather lost this bout 114-112 no question.
    He looked slower than usual the second half of the fight.

    Ti'll this day I've always rooted against Mayweather and did so on the night vs Castillo.
    Castillo did'nt get started ti'll round 5 and even then it was very late in round 5. Castillo was too fearful of Mayweather's speed his late start cost him imo.

    I gave Mayweather the first 5 rounds easy, and then had him edging two other rounds in the fight, one of them a classic late round where Mayweather held his ground and dug deep to score with much cleaner punches.

    Anyways, Castillo dominated the last half of the fight, I gave him 5 of the last 7 rounds, but his late start is what cost him the fight here against a Mayweather who was obviously injured on the night.

    I have a dislike for Mayweather as well, but I'm not going to let it blind me to the fact his fight with Castillo was close that a point or two either way was fine for me on anyone's scorecard.

    A robbery it was not.
    This fight actually reminded me alot of Jermaine Taylor's victories over Bernard Hopkins.
    Hopkins does virtually zero the first half of the fight, has a much better second half but its too late.

    Somebody has to let these fighters know that the first half of fights carry as much weight as the second half!:deal

    Sure it counts!

    Give Mayweather some credit for not quitting when it would have been an option to many fighters.

    Mayweather showed guts, fighting injured and fighitng tired.
    He dug deep in a few of those late rounds and fought Castillo when Castillo was attempting to bring him down to the body.

    Give Mayweather some credit, he showed he had balls in this fight.

    no mayweather knocked castillo down.. they said mayweather tripped him but castillo really just tripped on his own feet after getting pressured and hit

    borderline knockdown but then the ref kinda made up for it when may fell down later


    1 - 10-9 M
    2 - 10-9 M
    3 - 10-9 M
    4 - 10-9 M
    5 - 9-10 C
    6 - 9-10 C
    7 - 9-10 C
    8 - 9-9 (Castillo point deducted)
    9 - 10-9 C
    10 - 9-9 (Mayweather point deducted)
    11 - 10-9 C (closest round of the fight.. i wouldn't argue with a 10-10 at all)
    12 - 10-9 C


    Castillo wins by two points... **** was close tho but he was very complicated for floyd.. big strong and didn't get phased by may's punches


    FLOYDS 41-1!
