Pacquiao more accurate puncher than Mayweather

Classic thread.

Floyd apparently agrees with the TS.

[Oh you out son]

the entire idea behind this thread is ******.

for this "who has the better accuracy" argument to have any merit, you would first need the premise that compubox is a perfectly (or close to it) accurate measure of punches landed and missed.

any fan of boxing can tell you this is not the case, and compubox is not completely accurate. compubox is a computer program. who enters these punch numbers into the program? someone watching the fight enters these numbers, hence human error enters the equation.

with something as high paced as pacquiao's punches, do you think a human watching the fight LIVE (on normal speed) can accurately judge ALL of the MISSED and LANDED punches? if you think so, frankly you are quite dumb.

mayweather's stats would be easier to track and thus his compubox numbers would likely be closer to the truth than pacquiao's, as he throws far fewer combinations.

so you guys just spent 70 pages debating something that is not even a fully accurate tool in the first place, and many of you arguing over a few % difference between the two? ******ed.

Marquez is a more accurate puncher for sure.

This is a complete joke

This thread is comedy gold.

Pacquiao is more accurate because he misses with combination punches which don't count and he throws more punches.

This thread is backed up with stats.

If you got a problem with it talk to compubox

And landing a combination is much more difficult to do than landing a single shot, you do you have difficulties understanding this?

Well prove your theory.

Watch some Pacquiao and Floyd fights on slo-mo, count the punches landed and thrown and see the level of discrepancy between your numbers and the compubox numbers.


I have done this for fights, and compubox is surprisingly accurate.
