Comments Thread For: CompuBox Stats: Artur Beterbiev-Dmitry Bivol

[elfag]

Disagree with the premise that Beterbiev hits "way harder" than Bivol.

The puncher in the fight is whomever can take the others punches/effects the other more and it was clearly Bivol doing so in this fight.

And Beterbiev was primarily landing on forearms and gloves, punch stats are always bogus anyway...

Old men clicking buttons when they THINK a punch has landed is no reliable way to measure punches.

youre literally the only person on the planet to think that. even bivols momma will tell you beter hits way harder


bivols face wasnt warn down like a beaten dog fro mtaking them all on the gloves

Same could be said about those flurries that Bivol was doing. Majority of those punches were blocked.

In that case you did not watch the slow motion replay of those flurries.

I think Bivol edged it - but two shots that stand out when thinking the fight back in my head

The hellacious right hand body shot landed by Beterbiev in the 3rd round I think it was. That shot changed some things imo - And then shot that backed Bivol up when Beterbiev was up against the ropes after taking a combo. Bivol was really going for it there but was forced back and hurt himself

These stats say RObbery

on a round by round basis, it's practically a draw

I scored it a draw. Calling it a robbery one way or the other is ridiculous. I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch.

[Damn Wicked]

Clear win for Beterbiev.

The primary difference is that Arthur's rounds were not as clearly won as Dimitri's

massive tactical error on Biv’s part

he would rack up a points lead in rounds THEN CHILL

you don’t want your opponent to gain momentum by throwing punches and coming forward

and judges are harsh towards “negative” fighters who are moving a lot

Aim should be to DOMINATE the rounds not just secure enough points to win them

[The D3vil]

So, Beterbiev outlanded Bivol in 7 out of 12 rounds & then tied in another.

So, that's 8 out of 12 rounds he either landed more or tied.

Obviously, Compubox isn't all knowing, but it does give you some idea of what happened.

When the judges scorecards match Compubox, I don't call it a robbery.
