If Compubox was ran by a super computer with A.I that couldn't be bought, and had multiple hd 1000fps cameras around the ring that could detect every punch landed/evaded and even had FACIAL recognition software to detect if a fighter wince's in pain after being hit, it is still 1/4th of the sh1t that should be considered when judging a round
You judge who won a round based off of
Clean punching
Effective Aggressiveness
Defense
Ring Generalship
A perfect Compubox can only count Clean Punching. It does not tally up how many punches were slipped, you cannot put Ring Generalship in a hit/landed percentage, and Effective Aggressiveness is a very subjective term. The definition is moving forward effectively, but does that mean fighters who move backwards( Muhammad Ali) always lose in the category. I have always thought of it as just being effective regardless of what your game plan is.
My point is enough with these stupid Compubox threads, you do NOT judge a round by who landed more punches. SD12:wave:
I'm not saying you're wrong because I do agree with you, but it would show defense. Punches slipped would fall under punches thrown but not landed. I think at the end of the day judging it pretty subjective. If one guy lands 20 feather fisted punches does he win a round when the other guy landed one bomb that almost took the other guy out?
Anyone who genuinely believes that Compubox should replace Judges has to be mentally handicapped.
That's the only logical reasoning I can think of.
I didn't even read that thread, the concept was so ridiculous I couldn't get past the title.
If CompuBox was entirely correct, it would tell most the story. At the end of the day, the guy landing the most punches should usually win the round. It's only when guys land a similar amount of punches that other criteria comes into play for me. Like with many of the close rounds in Pacquiao-Bradley, Pacquiao's punches hitting cleaner and harder mean a lot more than Bradley's punches.
