How did Bivol win last night

[Boxing-1013]

What am I missing here? Which fans are claiming Canelo won??

If you factor in things like ring walks, style points, better trunks, etc it's obvious Canelo won. At least 9 rounds.

You also have to say body shots like "lil g landed piitty pat jabs but Canelo landed BRUTAL BODY SHOTS."

So brutal in fact that Canelo was the one who gassed at the end of that second fight and GGG swept the last 4 rounds.

Lol ok yes I'm learning here thank you lmao

also punches to the body that are blocked count more than power punches to the head.

Punches to the arms and shoulders count as body shots now too

Gonna let you in on a little tip - you don't score points for not getting hit. You just aren't allowing the other guy to score points on those shots that miss.

Here is a better tip read what i said, understand what was said because your answer is left field of what was said and the motive is to hate on a fighter.

You realize Willie Pep was given a scored round for not landing a single punch, defence is a part of boxing it always figures into the final score.

What fight was that and what round was it?

Honestly it's embarrassing that I need to detail this stuff, but here you go bud:



Defense: Defense is important because it helps a boxer set up his offense. Most judges that I have spoken to do not give credit for defense alone. If a boxer has a good defense, it means that he is not being hit with punches. But let's remember the purpose of the sport: to land punches on your opponent.

If Boxer A throws 10 punches in a round, but lands none of them, and Boxer B lands zero and throws zero, you still have an even round with no punches landing. You don't want to create a disincentive for a boxer to land punches if he thinks he's going to be penalized for missing.

Fck me another teenage mutant that cant comprehend two sentence that become 10 out of context.

Pep moved; Pep switched to southpaw, mocking Graves; Pep danced; Pep weaved; Pep spun Graves around and around again; Pep gave head feints, shoulder feints, foot feints, and feint feints. But Pep never landed a punch." The crowd at ringside sat in spellbound awe as Pep put on perhaps the greatest three minute demonstration on the art of boxing ever witnessed. In just 180 seconds he joined the ranks of those who had done some legendary act to fulfill a fearless prediction; the called-shot of Babe Ruth, the "We're gonna win, I guarantee it!" bravado of Joe Namath, and "They all will fall, in the round I call" predictions of Ali.Sportswriter Don Riley, who was ringside and forewarned of Pep's plan for the third round, said, "It was an amazing display of defensive boxing skill so adroit, so cunning, so subtle that the roaring crowd did not notice Pep's tactics were completely without offense. He made Jim Corbett's agility look like a broken down locomotive. He made even Sugar Ray Robinson's fluidity look like cement hardening. Never has boxing seen such perfection!" He had fought the round without throwing a punch, but had he won it? Was his display so mesmerizing that even the keen eyed judges were beguiled? Pep knocked Graves down 9 times, ending the fight in the 8th round via TKO, but it wasn't the victory the ringside press were excited about; it was the score cards of the judges. When the cards were presented, there it was in black and white; Willie Pep had won the third round, the punchless round, on all three cards. The Will o' the Wisp had given boxing another legendary moment.

Nice article. Lots of idiots out there though, and I could expect a lot of people to score a round today for Canelo or Floyd if they didn't land a punch - that's how it goes when you're the A side.

Doesn't mean that it should happen. You need to do more reading and less talking if you think a guy can or should win a round if he doesn't land a punch. Get some help.

Yes DEFENSE is important as far as it not allowing your opponent to score - you don't actively score defense!! This is obvious
