Pac beating Clottey's face in with his own gloves combined with body shots did more damage than Clottey landing a few clean shots. Simple. You can't just look at faces at the end, you have to watch the fight.

If boxing is about doing damage, Clottey should've won the Pacquaio fight?

What i remember most about Pac vs Clottey were the circumstances leading up to the fight and those after, which made me lost respect for Clottey. He needs to disappear. Even his country men that i spoke to lost respect for him. There is no price on dignity. None!

How much damage you do isn't scored by how bruised your opponent's face looks...
One bad punch can cause a massive bruise, and some guys just bruise easier than others.
If you're scoring "damage" what you mean is you're giving priority to flush shots over love taps, not literally scoring which guy's face is purplest.

You're probably correct though. Knowing as many ex-fighters that I do certainly backs up your assumption that boxing is, never has and never will be, about damage..................Rockin'

simple stuff it should be
you'd think we'd all know this and it would by now be common sense to "boxing" fans
