Jerry Roth's scoring of PBF/Castillo 1
Ok like most people I feel Castillo won the fight with his effective aggressiveness.
But the most shocking thing to me was Jerry Roth's scorecard. I mean with Jerry Roth I don't usually get shocked, because IMO he's produced some really fucked up, ass-backwards scorecards over the years. He seems to favor aggressors, whether or not they are effectivly aggressive seems irrelevant to him. He had DLH/Whitaker 116-110 for DLH, and he gave Trinidad a 115-113 nod over DLH (robbery).
So knowing Roth's tendancy to side with the aggressor, what do you think caused him to see it 115-111 for Mayweather? From round 4 or 5 on Castillo showed TRUE effective aggressiveness. He fought the exact fight that one might think Roth would love to see. So what do you think he saw in Mayweather's fighting, from round 5 on, that would cause Roth to give the rounds to Floyd?
I dunno, to me it just seems like the guy never gets it right. He's either scoring rounds for uneffective aggressors or screwing effective aggressors out of rounds. Am I being too hard on the guy?
