What Do These Numbers Have In Common: 334 And 337

[Bhopreign]

leave it to a hopkins fan to bring up throwing lots of punches as a BAD thing......

Just pray your boy dont see Arreola.

Nice research I guess, but what does this have to do with anything.

You are right. This is completely unrelated to boxing in a thread about punch output.

ike ibeabuchi is a *****.

he threw like 900 punches and couldn't knockdown tua once......

[Bhopreign]

Somehow you started the oh my god they are punching too much and not koing people so it was apropos.

Nah I said someone will be hardpressed to find someone land that many punches and not score at least one knockdown.

I dont believe Compubox anyway, Clottey was blocking those punches. They need to get a better system, with the power some say Marg has, no way Clottey doesnt at least get hurt once in the fight.

SO you trot out the numbers and now you say you don't believe them.
Um. ok.

I agree with Compubox being full of **** sometimes but why base an argument on something you don't even believe yourself, (the punch numbers)?

Whats the fight where Tua couldnt raise his arms? Lazy fatboy.

Because thats what they said, did you see that fight, watch again, Clottey is blocking everything, Id love to see the punch stats for Dawson/Johnson too, because Glen blocking the majority of those also.

It wasn't Tua-Ibaebuchi that's for damn sure. And those ****ers had evil intentions and woulda caved in anyone else in the division that night.
That fight was electric.

Its idiotic if you know nothing about boxing or understand that having a high percentage in anything is usually a good thing especially sports. Margarito just throws punches he doesnt try and be accurate, to me thats the sign of someone who isnt that skilled but uses offense as defense in a way. But you do what you have to do to win fights and I give him credit for realizing his strengths and weaknesses. His strengths are his chin and his stamina so he throws many punches and puts constant pressure on his opponent which is smart in his case. I only posted factual stats and still some dummy had to resort to namecalling as if Im pulling numbers out of thin air. Nobody's dissing Marg, its facts.

Missing punches and boxing and missing shots in basketball have nothing in common. A boxer who throws a large volume of punches keeps his opponent on the defensive. Missing shots in b-ball more often than not gives the other team possession of the ball. I'll repeat, it is an idiotic comparison. People who rely on punch stats are usually those who don't really know how to watch fights. They are counted by a person, and aren't nearly as accurate as tabulating basketball stats. You can call those numbers "factual". It's no more accurate than you claiming that you aren't dissing Margarito when this thread is obviously dedicated to exactly that.

Translation: Punch stats are only accurate when they serve your purpose.
