    So I just did my own punchstats for BH vs. JC and...

    ...it confirmed what I and a lot of others have suspected all along - it's a complete joke. I watched the first 3 rounds in slow motion (it's time consuming, maybe I'll get to the rest of the rounds later) scoring for Calzaghe since he is who I suspect has the more deceptive numbers based on his higher punch volume. The first round numbers were fairly close but the next 2 were horrific. I found roughly 50% less punches landed then Compubox and 90% of them were TAPS to the body and head, mainly during clenching...and these are being scored as "power punches" since they aren't jabs. 50% less is also being generous and giving the benefit of the doubt since in some cases the action was blocked.

    I challenge anyone to do the same and I think you'll get similar results.

        Of course. People shouldn't believe a statistical system that says De La Hoya landed over 120 punches on Mayweather and that Mayweather landed 220 on De La Hoya. Or that Gatti landed 41 punches on Mayweather. More like 4.

        People using Compubox as evidence that Calzaghe won is as bad as Hopkins claiming his unmarked ugly face means he won.

            I did the same thing, except I watched it in extra super-duper slow-mo. Compubox actually missed 436 clean punches landed by Calzaghe. That's how fast his hands are.

            Calzaghe completely and utterly dominated Hopkins. He let the first round knckdown happen because he felt sorry for B-Hop and wanted him to have something to be proud of despite the L.

              I've already done it and it turned my stomach. Extremely disturbing results. I felt sick for Hopkins. He got railroaded.

              Several people have already taken this challenge and come back with new results. I personally sat down and watched the fight with about 7-8 people and reviewed all the exchanges and in slo-mo with fresh score cards and the results were unanimous in favor of Hopkins. There was no argument, and virtually no punches landed by Joe Calzaghe. The end.
