ROUND 1, Mayweather's speed was clear and controls the opening round.
ROUND 2, Mayweather still controls this round.
ROUND 3, A little close since first 2 minutes controlled by mayweather but with 30secs left castlillo have some good shots.
ROUND 4, Not much punch landed by both, but 1 solid punch by castillo.
ROUND 5, Castillo's aggresiveness is now evident. But mayweather's counter shot saves this round for him.
ROUND 6, Castillo for being the aggresor. Too much aggresiveness even punching while on hold.
ROUND 7, Castillo dominates this round.
ROUND 8, Castillo still the aggressive one. Landed punches to the body. Deducted 1 point by ref due to punch thrown at break.
ROUND 9, Very close to me, could gone either way. castillo's aggresiveness is a factor. mayweather's defense and dancing (or running) around is impressive.
ROUND 10, Nice counter shots by mayweather. Deducted 1 point by ref. for sticking elbow.
ROUND 11, Mayweather stands toe-to-toe with castillo and landed some good combination and counters. Castillo looks tired.
ROUND 12, Castillo finishes strong.

This fight is a DRAW, a very good fight though.

Heres 'cool click' #2 on me and Welcome to Casa De Saddo where your opinion os sure to be crushed by some drunk.... WackOff3205 or SalTheButcher....

Nice input on the fight and glad to see a new member jump right into the action.....

thanks! admittedly that i only knew little about the sport. but i enjoy watching some good fights whenever's a chance.

my first time i watched PBF-JLC1, i thought that Castillo should have won.
i watched it again today when saw this thread (nice idea!!!) and scored it round-by-round. some close rounds and could go to either fighter defending on what style you prefer (aggresive or counterpuncher).

but i find it a little fascinating when all the 3 judges scored it in favor of PBF by a somewhat 2-3 rounds swing. guess they prefer PBF's counter-punching and running around.

Yeah! but keep in mind JLC was the champ.
IMO since JLC was the champ. I didn't see anything from PBF that indicated he was the challenger that he was there to win a fight, he fought like he was the champ there and JLC fought like the challenger the hungrier of the 2.
He fought aggressive and he pusnished PBF to the body and to the head.....
PBFs body punches were taps in the form of jabs to the stomach, while JLC threw hooks and uppers to the rib cage and to the stomach more variations of body attack.....

i'm with you on who looks like who fought hungrier of the two. certainly JLC looks like the challenger with the way he fought, specifically from rounds 4 to final bell. but he starts this fight slowly. he gave away the first 3 rounds before starting to become aggresive. the opening rounds results in points deficit for JLC and cost him the decision (IMO, the DRAW) but should not be a wide 2-3 rounds swing in favor of PBF as the three judges saw it.

those were definitely hard punches to PBF's body. this helps JLC in slowing him down and pinning him on corners. still, irritating Floyd makes JLC miss most of his shots. at one point of the match Castillo is so frustrated with Floyd's antics that he holds him down to prevent him from running away and on another one he squeaks two hooks on Floyd's side while Floyd's gaying away and his back turned from Castillo.
