    BoxingScene. Effective punching or Work rate ?

    Last night i believe Marquez should have won. He clearly shocked me and millions of people. He landed the crisper and more telling shots. Pac just threw way more but his punches didnt seem more telling than Marquez.


    This happened in Williams Martinez I. Williamswork rate was picked over Martinezs effective punching.

    So what do you prefer? I go with effective punching. It just shows your clearly committing to hit your spots to make an impact not just throw random **** cause your quick.

    I always favor clean, effective punching, over sheer workrate, unless the numbers are highly disproportionate. I'll take 30 thrown, with 15-18 landed, over 50 thrown with 20 landed any day of the week.

    I'm all about the clean, effective punching.

        Pacquiao was effective in punching last night? He hit air 3 times out of 5.

        As for the facial swelling, that proves nothing. Pacquiao had a busted lip AND a gash over his eye that required 28 stitches.

              I'm sick of hearing about work rate. If a guy throws hundreds of punches and lands hardly anything while his opponent is waiting, picking the right spots and landing most of his punches, guess who's getting the round...

                How the **** anybody can give the fight to marquez is what i dont get.

                Pacquaio had both work rate and effective punches. He also landed the more cleaner punches.

                Yes pacquaio hit air lot, so did marquez.

                Pacquaio also hit clean many clean combo at marquez face while marquez always landed one punches.


                The thing is that people were so in shock that marquez was actually competitive that they gave all those close rounds even the round that pacquaio landed cleanly.

                  So you factor in what the opponet's face looks like, at the end of a fight?

                  Newsflash : Some guys just swell and cut easier than others. Look at Ricky Hatton, and how badly his face was swollen in some of his biggest wins.

                  I'm sorry, but your boy got owned last night 8 rounds to 4, and it's damn near agreed upon universally, at this point. Everybody from sportswriters, to fellow boxers, to random boxing fans online agree Marquez got robbed.

                    No, this does not apply to me and I still had Marquez winning.
