    power does not=offense,you have to be able to deliver that power...timing and accuracy that detures your opponent and makes him think twice hence cutting his punch rate in half =great offense

      And no. He drew with Whitaker and lost to Oscar, Trinidad.


      Judges lean toward the aggressor.

      Kthanksbye.
      They shouldn't be if they are being objective, it shouldn't matter what direction you are moving in if you are landing clean effective punches.

          Just say I agree with Reed.

          Saves you an entire paragraph.

            if you are being objective watching an actual COMBAT and not a points fencing type of competition.


            You'd realize the person that lands the harder and more damaging blows wins the fight.


            That is why Shane Mosley won his fights against Oscar.

              Pacquiao was unmarked aside from the headclash cut.






              Exactly. Im still trying to figure out why so many people claim robbery when pac outhrew & outlanded marquez. The fact that pac was finally in a close fight against a sentimental favorite everybody wants to automatically say marquez won. when the **** did a very close fight with a lot of close rounds become a robbery.

                  that's right.

                  they lacking in their offense.


                  what happened when great defensive fighter like Ward fights a prime RJJ? He'll get blown up.


                  Bernard fought RJJ when they were fresher. Offensive fighter won.


                  They only win because of their lackluster competition.

                    That is the judges job though in case no one is stopped.

                      Why'd Shane lose to Floyd then?

                      He's clearly the harder puncher.



                      Because you don't need power to have great offense or win a fight.
