Who came the closest to beating Mayweather Jr.?

I am, but then judges are hardly impartial, given who pays their fees etc.

 

No, it really is only Floyd fans who believe he won the fight.

 

Ok, now we're even lol...

 

Yeah, it can't really be that all 3 judges saw an ineffective Castillo not landing anything meaningful..........naw

 

A lot of people take compubox only when they have an advantage for their fighter, if not they are based in perception, beauty and bull****

classic pbf nuthugger fan

now is becoming a ******* routine too

 

Going into round 5, Judah should have been 39 36 and that's not debateable. There are two perspectives on what happened next.
1. Zab showed again why he is a 5 round fighter
2. Floyd began to addapt
Truth lies somewhere in between since Floyd did start to land more and since Judah's a proven 5 rounder.

Castillo vs Floyd is similar to Marquez vs Paul Williams. Difference is, Floyd landed way fewer punches. If you only go by the flushness of punches, you give it to Floyd. I'm not that unidimensional or biased so the first fight is Castillo's no doubt.

 

The obvious answer is Castillo, simply because in the eyes of the fans he actually won!

But I don't understand how people think Zab came close to beating him. Yeah he had a few decent early rounds, but by the middle and end Floyd took over and began playing with Judah. They could have fought 10 times that week, and FLoyd would have won every single one of them.

Same goes for Oscar, although yes he probably pushed Floyd closer than anyone else (apart from Castillo). The dude was controlling him with his jab, then for whatever bizzare reason he abandons his most successful weapon? What an idiot, he threw that fight away! By the end, I had Floyd winning by 2 rounds easily.

But come May 1st, I seriously think we're gonna have someone contending Castillo for the title of 'the closest man to beat Floyd'.

 

I'm not a PBF critic, I think he might be the most talented fighter of our era but it doesn't change reality, he lost the first Castillo fight

 

Fight judges managed to score Funeka v Guzman a draw. I wouldn't trust fight judges.

 

Thing is, you don't need compubox for this fight. Castillo was a lot more active and landed considerably more punches.

 

Castillo won the first fight imo, but Mayweather clearly beat DLH.

 

I know, but when some guys started talking about accuracy then it was necessary to show them they were wrong.

 

When it was announced a split decision, I couldn't believe it. Floyd clearly won that fight unanimously

 

I know, I think it was a close UD

 

Castillo without a doubt, FLoyd has an L
