I'm pretty sure those were the HBO punchstats given.
It's tough to base a fight off of punch stats alone though.
Hopkins outlanded Taylor in their first fight (almost all in the last 4 rounds)
Tarver outlanded Jones Jr. in their first fight (even though Jones clearly won 7 rounds)
It's also tough to say what a "landed punch" is. A partially blocked punch might be landed, we will never know... but regardless, there are only 2 categories, landed and missed. Therefore, a partially blocked punch counts as much as a flush punch in punchstats.
I like the punchstats, but they definately are not as useful as they should be on how to score a fight.
Fight scoring needs to be changed, definately.Comment

to anyone in this thread...one question...did The Strawberry Margarita beat Paul Williams?....if your answer to this question is yes...than these stats prove nothing....Comment

Williams threw more punches and landed more punches then Margarito. I dont see your point.
Here, you need one of these:

I wouldn't say robbery... Punch stats don't always "tell the tape". It was Very close fight & depending on what you're looking for you can score this fight either way. I watched this fight several times & never came up w/ the same exact score but everytime it was either a Castillo win by a point or 2 or a Draw. IMO Floyd did not do enough to win that fight & "take the belt away from the champ", & I'm one of the biggest PBF fans there is! I have to agree that the score cards where pure Bull-****! Castillo won way more than 3 or 4rds like they say he did! Either way, Whether Floyd was hurt or underesimated Castillo, he let Jose outhustle him plain & simple!
**** that. who is that in you avatar? some **** *****?Comment
