Workmanlike performance by Guillermo Rigondeaux, who landed 43% of his power shots, while throwing 53 punches per round. Roberto Marroquin landed just 16% of his total punches.

The more efficient Marcos Maidana outlasts Jesus Soto Karass in a slug fest. Maidana landed nearly half his power shots vs. the absorbent Soto Karass.

Rising star IBF bantamweight champion Leo Santa Cruz put up staggering numbers, landing an average of 55 punches per round- nearly three times the bantamweight average. Santa Cruz landed 66% of his power shots, outlanding Eric Morel 113-15 in rounds four and five.

Both landed a similar amount of total punches per round. Sergio Martinez is busier. Half of Martinez's total punches landed per round were jabs, whil 85% of Chavez's landed punches were power shots.

Daniel Ponce De Leon racked up huge numbers vs. stationary target Lazcano, landing an average of 52 of 136 punches per round. De Leon averaged 12 of 52 per round vs. Gamboa & Broner, fighters who moved and possessed power. The counter punching Jhonny Gonzalez, whose opponents landed just 17% of their total punches, will use lateral movement and has some pop.

Jesus Soto Karass the much busier fighter, while Marcos Maidana is the harder puncher. This should be a power punch festival, as 28 of their combined 35 punches landed per round (80%) were power shots. Maidana's opponents landed 41% of their power punches and Soto Karass opponents landed 43% of their power shots.

Guillermo Ridgoneaux is very selective with his punches. Roberto Marroquion's opponents landed 42% of his power shots and Rigondeaux is a major step up in opposition for him.

IBF bantamweight champion Leo Santa Cruz landed double the weight class average for total punches, averaging 199 thrown per round - 53 more than Eric Morel. Morel, not a big puncher, will have to land more than 9% of his jabs to hold off the relentless Sant Cruz.

Roman Martinez the busier fighter. Miguel Beltran, who threw well below the weight class average, is the more accurate fighter.

Jessie Vargas was the more efficient power puncher, landing 45%, while limiting Aron Martinez to 29%.
