Now i didn't watch the HBO broadcast so I am not sure if they showed them but sky box at no point during the fight or in the presser had up the compubox stats. Did anyone else see them? By the time the 4th round came and there still were no compubox stats i knew the fix was on.
smh. what if the opponent is too elusive or you're not strong enough to get the KO? You're cool with letting clear and obvious losers get decisions because they weren't Ko'd????
Perfect example de la hoya vs Whitaker

When I read the thread, this was the first thing that came to mind. I figured this would be the 2nd post.
A top rank fighter will always get the decision.
Uhhhh since the beginning of boxing robberies were part of the sport.
If you don't go for the KO like Orlando Salido, you might get robbed. Did Orlando Salido cry about it? No. He took the decision away from the judges and handled it himself.
Problem solved.
Sadly I have to agree although i personally felt like Abril was winning the fight i knew he was not letting his hands go enough I don't think he would have needed to knock him down but at some point i was hoping he was going to go after him. They were not going to let Rios lose in a fight like that.

Compubox is HBO's baby. It wasn't an HBO telecast, HBO backed out after Gamboa went AWOL.
Ahh thanks for the info It's still hard to imagine that there are no other entities outside of compubox that do punch stats. Every fight should have them.
