    Mayweather all day long. Apart from 1 nice bit of work from Castillo with about 30sec go when Floyd was against ropes, that round was basically hit and not get hit from Mayweather. Good movement with lots of connecting jabs, controlled the round almost the whole time. Imo you are not scoring the round as a 3 minute slice of action if you give that round to Castillo. I totally disagree with Lederman scoring the round to Castillo.

    Good for you but I had Castillo up by one shot.

    Turn the sound off you cant listen to these commenters they mention a body jab by Floyd that doesnt even contact as castillo is going backwards and checks it. Also one of them says "nice triple combination by Castillo; where none of them make contact at all.

    I still cant see as many of Floyds hits making contact as you have JC but thats why this fight gets fans at odds and this is the round thats the hardest to score in my estimation.

    So lets all pick it apart .

    Good work.

    Well I keep looking at it

    Even between 3.50 and 4.02 Or from 52 down to 40 on the time clock, right after Floyd slips Castillos reaching left jab over his right shoulder.. right then (where Floyd is at his busiest in the whole round; he isnt making contact his fist is left hung in air a lot you can see it even on the pause button) but eventually he gets one low jab in to score and that is his busiest moment in the whole round.

    I agree Floyd is moving and evasive and Castillo is made to miss a lot too, its a very hard round to score. I dont think there is even a scoring shot for the first 29 seconds in the round, even that very first jab of Floyds that you hear loud, is off the glove as Castillo is even moving backwards and leaves his arm out to check it.

    Floyd moves better ill give him that.

    It could have been a 10-10 round but if I had to give it to somebody, it's castillo who was the aggressor and landed a nice jab and right hand..

    I tried to score it, but all I could think about was what an consistently god-awful commentator George Foreman was.

    Pretty much my thoughts. Neither fighter was able to be that effective... it was pretty much tit for tat in what little action there was.

    10-10, but if I had to give it one way or the other I guess Castillo gets it for trying to press the action more than Floyd did.... not that either did much!

    I penalize some fighters for being aggressive against a 'boxer' but not being intelligent and not really doing anything. This is a case of the opposite. I don't think Floyd was really trying to do anything but figure Castillo out a little bit. It's Youtube so the quality isn't great but I don't think Mayweather, or Castillo, controlled anything. Still, I would probably give the round to Castillo.

    What defines what a fight is going to look like is when the saying comes to pass,"The fight begins in the third round." Mr. Castillo won the round on quantity landed. The rest of the fight Floyd didn't really do much and press row had him losing. I didn't really see the fight until my third sitting. All I can say about the rest of the fight is it takes more than footwork to take a title especially when you get hit with forty to fifty more punches than your opponent.
