WHO ??? came closest to beating FLOYD???

[baya]

I just re watched it, Castillo deserved to keep his title that night!

was it the 10 or 11th when floyd got that point deducted?

that was the wrapping on the cake for what should have been a clear castillo win that night.

you have to be an absolute idiot if you picked anyone besides Castillo......ODLH won what 4 rounds...Maidana did well until round 6 just like Judah.....the reason people labled floyd as "boring" because their came a point he made it look to easy and fights were not competitive

Jesus Chavez did well and his performance is overlooked because he got stopped. The fight is a closet classic and he held his own until getting teed off on

agreed, no other fight is up for debate as far as i'm concerned and as far as i'm concerned, as a huge fan of floyd, he was given a favor by the judges, that was a close but clear points win for castillo.

i was sitting front row for that one at the bill graham auditorium in SF.

floyd was right in front of him teeing off something beautiful.

I made a thread a few months ago where we all rewatched it and scored it.

I had it a draw, Floyd by a point and 2 points....had castillo by a point later

its a true toss up and it needed a rematch....people bring up injuries i.e. Mayweather vs Pac.... but it must be noted that Floyd was complaining, switching southpaw, telling his uncle his hands hurt etc...thats a real shoulder injury. Manny didnt even wince or complain.

It was evident his shoulder healed for the rematch because he threw it more often and more authority.


Jesus Chavez gave Morales a tough fight too...he was a little pit bull

Agreed! Castillo came to fight! He did make it look easy once he figured out his opposition. Ortiz was so frustrated he resorted to an intentional head butt, Maidana bit the **** out of his hand!

Yep, Floyd was in pain during that fight. Hands and shoulder. He got booed for bringing up his his injuries post fight, but PAC does it at the post fight press conference... And many buy it!! LMAO!

people cant relate to dominance....its ok to be dominant and get kos to some fans....watching overmatched opponents get kayo'ed is boring as **** to me....different strokes different folks


Ko% drop after your comp gets tougher....happened to ALL the great punchers.

hell judah rabbit punched him and hit him in nuts

Canelo got so frustrated he hit him in the thigh and used his shoulder to bump his head


all flustered and frustrated

even then when floyd was on his baby sugar ray ****( I called him sugar lite when he was pretty boy)

trying to say the right things, calling the best out, trying his best to be liked, they didnt take to him.

He was far more exciting back then but he was stopping and knocking guys out and still hardly getting hit....casuals hate that

so as soon as he had a close fight, they disregard the facts because they wanted to see him challenged or outright lose so bad.

It was split down the middle who everyone thought won....but on this website you would have though Castillo beat him from pillar to post when in actuality it was a nip and tuck fight where floyd took the early rounds, castillo the middle and they played tug of war for supremacy.


Mayweather was better off being a prick in the long run, they didnt appreciate him when he had a 70% ko ratio and said the right things, called out everyone...GattI AND HAMED getting paid more even though he was better.....what does he do...change his persona and go on to beat all the big attractions from 130-154


I like pretty boy floyd a lot more than Money Mayweather


its like watching 2 different fighters for me.....people need to do more fantasy fights with Pretty boy floyd....not old past prime, defensive floyd in his 4th and 5th divison
