I agree with that. That ridiculous Mayweather clone shoulder roll is gone completely. He fought to his strengths. Good job by Virgil Hunter once again.

Only at times. Which is what makes me think he was not fully prepared. I think he should have been dominant throughout the fight, similar to Guerrero fight, if he was in top shape.

I've re watched PBF's whole career in slow motion, in fact he has been knocked out 4 times.

How do you rate his Castillo performances?

They were both good performance, Castillo was the perfect fighter to give him problems, rugged, strong, durable, determined and high volume. I think Mayweather improved following those fights, think he learnt how to fight those guys better. His performance in the 2nd fight was very clever, whilst he struggled with Castillo in the first. I still had him winning both mind.

DLH did well, but anyone who thinks he won that has shite in their eye.

DLH faded down the stretch after a good start, he just couldn't maintain the workrate.

I'd have picked a prime DLH to beat Floyd at 147 quite handily, he was far more natural at the weight - but he simply didn't do enough that night to deserve the win. He lost the last 4 rounds clearly, and thus the fight.
Dlh beat floyd that night,ther was a round wer floyd didnt even tbrow a punch and won the round,im not a floyd hater,listen right,thers world class then above that theres floyd mayweather end of story but imo i thought he lost that fight,it was a close fight a sd fight but oscar won it. Im not takin anythin away from floyds career he has fought the best of his generation never ducked anyone(apart from margarito and paul williams) his record has the best of the best fighters from our generation,smart man in the ring and a very smart man out the ring,knew when to fight certain fighters so for that i give him my utmost respect

He'll fight amir khan.
"The world wants to see it and will always wonder if Floyd stays retired what would have happened".
Fact.
Khan should STFU about Mayweather and rematch Danny Garcia.
Khan should STFU about Mayweather and rematch Breidis Prescott. :wave:

Boxing in Vegas has had some real dark clouds over the decades - and I would not be shocked to see him defeated, probably on the scorecards in a fight he won.

The forces that be, will want another pin-up to continue the story and keep the cash flowing into the city.

It's not good for the money men in boxing to see Mayweather exit the sport undefeated.
