Mayweather-Castillo 1 was NOT a robbery

[A.K]

Nah Floyd should of technically lost that fight on points he was getting assaulted in the second half of the fight but since he redeemed himself pretty clearly in the second fight it didn’t really matter.

I'll keep it simple. In the pro game it's about inflicting damage. Who got damaged that night is a simple answer. Floyd got fuvked that night, if you can't see that YDKSAB. Castillo made Floyd look like a kid fighting a man in there. This is the pros. It's about the hurt biz. Castillo clearly did more damage.

Sorry Floyd lovers. Floyd is a manufactured scam.

The 0 is gone at that point.

Oh, it mattered alright. He shouldn't have an unblemished record at that time. His 0 was gone that early of the game.

nah.

You just can't win a fight throwing less punches, landing less punches, against the CHAMPION no less, nah.

Only way a fighter wins throwing less and landing less is if he's a big puncher which mayweather is not.

castillo won that fight and floyd knows it, that's why he gave him the rematch same way he gave Maidana a rematch.

You kept it simple and WRONG. In the pro game, there's nothing in the rule book that says a fight is scored on "damage" inflicted. Boxing is scored on a round-by-round basis, so a boxer can slightly edge the first round, and in the second round his opponent could dominate and inflict more damage. The fight will still be a 1-1 draw. In that night we saw Floyd Mayweather win more rounds against Jose Luis Castillo, just like he won more rounds against your beloved glass chin Pacquiao.

Pacquiao is the real manufactured scam. Lost seven times, never unified in any division and lost the biggest fight of his career against TBE Floyd Mayweather.

Well the thing is, Castillo didn't land more punches. The vast majority of his punches were blocked, deflected, slipped, parried or simply did not cleanly land. His body shots especially included a lot of low blows, hip shots and elbow shots. He was certainly the more aggressive fighter and throwing with more volume, but it's not effective if he wasn't landing cleanly and was constantly getting countered all the time.

And btw, boxing is scored on a round-by-round basis anyways. So you can land more punches but still lose the fight if the majority of your landed punches are concentrated into 4-5 rounds.

I want to keep it simple, but you still didn't get the point. The difference with amateur boxing and pro game is a punch in the amateurs whether strong or not is equivalent to 1 point. In the pro game a heavy punch is better than a patsy pitter patty shot. That's what I meant. That said, Castillo landed the cleaner heavier shots that ALONE should give him the rounds to win, and to add insult to injury. Castillo also landed more punch connects per round than Floyd. It's all recorded till the end of time. Sorry Floyd lover. His 0 was gone along time ago.

I went and watched the fight a third time and I still can’t see how anyone could argue that this was a robbery. I saw Mayweather build an early lead by sweeping the first five rounds, then winning rounds 8 and 10. 7-5 win for Floyd.

My scorecard
RD1: 10-9
RD2: 10-9
RD3: 10-9
RD4: 10-9
RD5: 10-9
RD6: 9-10
RD7: 9-10
RD8: 10-8
RD9: 9-10
RD10: 9-9
RD11: 9-10
RD12: 9-10
114-112 Floyd Mayweather

I think the confusion lies in round 10. A lot of fans think that just because Floyd got a point deducted in that round then it should automatically be scored 10-8 in favor of Castillo, when in reality that was a round Floyd clearly dominated and is objectively a 9-9 round by the boxing rules.

You tried to keep it simple, but you were very wrong and got took to school on how professional boxing is actually scored. Amateur boxing doesn't have one single scoring system, the way to score an amateur fight varies by which country and which tournament the fight happens in, so right off the bat you are incorrect as always. In professional boxing, It's scored by a 10 point, round-by-round system which takes into account effective aggression, ring generalship, defense and clean punches. That said, Castillo's aggression wasn't effective as he was constantly missing punches and getting countered, he wasn't the ring general since Floyd dominated the pace for 5 rounds straight and continued to toy with Castillo in rounds 8, 10 and 11. Defense easily went to Flyd and Floyd landed the cleaner, harder punches that had Castillo's neck cranking and head popping back, where as Castillo landed the pitty-pat low blows, hip shots and arm/elbow/shoulder punches. For you to blatantly lie and say Castillo landed cleaner punches just goes to show how clueless you are. So based on the boxing rules, Floyd easily won that fight. The judges got it right, so did all the ring side experts and media members who all had Floyd winning as well. Sorry Pacquiao lover, but Floyd never lost his 0 like Pacquiao lost his in his 12th fight.

I'm going to have to disagree with their scored card, their official one says that Castillo won round 4 and they had round 5 a draw, two rounds that Floyd easily won.
