That's what i've been saying. Judges aren't always that credible IMO. I think that in any fights, whomever lands the more effective power punches should be the clear winner of that fight.
Floyd Mayweather dominates every single scoring criteria.

so if pwill lands 100 effective punches on floyd xylocaine jr at a low percentage ratio and floyd lands 50 effective punches at a high percentage ratio, then pwill should win the fight?Comment

That's where RING GENERALSHIP comes to play. Did Clottey control the pace of the fight? No.
Pac's 100 punches per round were controling it.Comment

It depends on how more effective those punches are. I don't go by the total of punches that lands because most of those punches are low percentage clean shots, i go by power shots vs power shots, and whomever wins in that category should win IMO.Comment

More importantly it's a gut thing.
Many times, judges have short term memory so what you do in the last minute overrides what you did in the first 2.
I liked Teddy Atlas's Bar-o-meter that he used on FNF once, where he would update minute-by-minute on who is leading the round during the 3 minture span, meaning who is being more effective with what they're doing.Comment

He was the favorite on every ******** site when we thought that the fight was going to happen.Comment

I am not talking about Ring generalship, in fact my comment was directed towards boxing in general. I was just giving an example of Margarito-Clottey, not Pac-Clottey.Comment

Mayweather's the best fighter out thereIt's why he is the absolute best boxer on Earth. This is what judges look for:
"Effective" Aggression
Key word being effective. Having a high punch output is all fine and dandy but if it's not being effective what's the use? When Mayweather throws, he lands. He is the most accurate boxer in compubox history.
Defense
This speaks for itself
Ring Generalship
Mayweather controls the pace of every single one of his fights.
Clean and Hard Punching

As you can see here, Mayweather's connected power punches on average is almost double that of his opponents. His connect percentage of power punches is almost 2.5 x more than his opponents.
Floyd Mayweather will never lose.

How about this?
Lets go round by round and what's being thrown/landed in that particular round.
By your logic, a fighter could land all the clean power shots in the first 4 rounds and do nothing in the next 8 rounds and win the fight IF the total punches landed are in his favor.Last edited by cupocity303; 04-16-2010, 03:13 PM.Comment

Oh well. Isn't that the whole point anyway, to land more punches than your opponent(s)? At the same time, i think that the Pacquiao vs fight is a great example that you can win a fight base on activity alone if your opponent doesn't thrown that many punches. I don't care how useless some people thinks compubox punch stat is, but it can really makes a difference on how to score a fight. Let say if you land 290 punches, while you opponents lands 295 or 300, i think whomever win in the power punches vs power punches category should win regardless of whom lands more total punches.Last edited by Carpe Diem; 04-16-2010, 03:21 PM.Comment
