I scored both maidana and Castillo 1 a draw. Oscar was close but the Floyd pulled it out. But in rematches, Floyd beat maidana and Castillo clearly.proving that regardless of the scores he put an end to the doubts and has beaten everyone he has been in the ring with clearly
Maidana 1 was not a close fight. Mauling, throwing low blows, and hitting Floyd's gloves, elbows, and only making contact with grazing punches as Floyd evades them is not clean, effective punching. Sure he won 2 or 3 rounds, but he didn't do well enough that you can make a case for a win. Oscar boxed well and controlled rounds with the jab, but Floyd still won a close but clear fight with his speed, defence, and timing. I think with a better game plan Oscar could've beaten, but Floyd definitely won. Castillo 1 is the only fight that a serious case can be made for Floyd losing. Several close rounds depending on who you gave the edge to in quality punches, and controlling the fight. I think Floyd pulled out a draw by winning round 11, which most people scored for Castillo. A draw or close Castillo win would've been acceptable, but if Floyd was given a loss in any other fight it would've been a robbery. So I too have him 'unbested but not undefeated'.
Floyd owns his victory in the maidana rematch to his bodyguard kenny bayless, brought by Floyd for that purpose exactly
Floyd would have whooped oscar bad in the rematch... the rematch would have had to have taken place at 147 i believe, which was why he fought Forbes at 150... Oscar would have be drained.
:hey How many Russians did Floyd fight? :deal check his record on BoxRec... :yep ...also... He waited for PacMan to get put to sleep before he seriously was interested in fighting him... He struggled with Hatton for 10 PacMan put Hatton to sleep in 2... During those days... Duckweather wanted nothing to do with PacMan and always had excuses... :yep
You're wrong! Pac's camp already admitted that a fight with FM didn't happen because Pac didn't want to mess with needles. That was before he got put to sleep. Roach speaks to that situation during an interview in the FM/Pac pre-fight build up. There was also a time the fight didn't get made because FM wanted too much of the split, this too is true. In my opinion both fighters , at some point were to blame for the fight no happening sooner. I unlike you ,am not biased and put the blame only on one fighter.
