    a few things i noticed in this one.

    First of all that is a VERY prime Castillo in there. About as good as he can get. He is moving fast, countering, ducking, vicious body shots, good foot movement, sick feints, the works. I've been a fan of Castillo for a long time and this is one of his best perfomaces. That version of Castillo can hang with the very best.

    Secondly, Mayweather has a very solid chin. If you doubt it then watch the end of round 7.

    Also, Floyd's right shoulder was bothering him after round 1. I mean some rounds it obvious its hurting him a little less, while in other its hurting him alot. I mean clearly Floyd is not at 100%

    The ref definately helped Mayweather a little. Breaking up the fighters very quickly.

    He're my score

    6. JLC
    7. JLC
    8. JLC (Castillo loses 1 point)
    9. JLC
    10. PBF (PBF loses 1 point)
    11. JLC
    12. JLC

    114-112 Castillo.

    Hatton said that in his 4 rounds with Castillo there was more excitement than Floyd's entire career, but the fact is that Floyd vs Castillo was 10 times more exciting than Hatton vs Castillo.

    Also I think Hatton does have the style to trouble floyd, but i doubt he can win. I mean is Hatton really better than a prime Castillo as he says? I don't think so. A prime Castillo is a ****ing monster with a ton of skill.

    We'll see. If Hatton - Mayweather is anything remotely close to Castillo - Mayweather, it'll be worth the price tag (even 65$)

    Castillo won that fight. Just watched it again. Lederman, Lampley, and Merchant all thought Castillo won and obviously that says a lot. Why else would Floyd give him a rematch. That was very educated pressure that Castillo was applying and Castillo was the bigger man in the ring that night. I hope Ricky's better than I think...

    Lederman has got to be the worst scorer in the history of mankind. And his voice is ****ING annoying. I wish they would fire him alredy. At least Merchant is a good scorer, even though he gives too many even rounds.

    anyways i always turn the volume down when Lederman starts talking

    rounds 1 through 7 were about as easy to score as it gets.
