    You guys still butt hurt over that loss? Floyd is UNDEFEATED. Your revisionist imaginations ain't changing the facts. Deal with it.
     
  5. Was it a close fight? Absolutely. I have watched that fight numerous times and it always plays out the same way (also do yourself a favor and watch it without the pathetic HBO commentary). Floyd won the first half of the fight...Castillo came on stronger in the second half. People love to just give the fight to JLC for being more "aggressive". But overall...Floyd landed the cleaner punches and controlled the fight with his jab (and lets not forget Floyd knocking down JLC in the second round and it being called a slip). Castillo fought pretty dirty as well (hitting after the break numerous times). Add to that...so many peoples dislike of Floyd just won't let them judge a close fight without bias. It was Floyd's toughest fight (major props for him taking on someone of JLC's caliber at his first fight at lightweight) but he showed heart (fighting with injury) and won a close fight. But hey...the haters need something to hang their hats on.

    Haven't watched it in a while but I had Floyd winning 115-113. Floyd built up a nice lead and it was enough to see him through on my card.
