    As per the Compubox discussion;



    Compubox



    CompuBox is the name of a computerized punches scoring system run by two operators. CompuBox is used in boxing matches across the world.
    The system is based on a computer program, originally named FightStat, developed by Jon Gibbs in 1984-85 when Gibbs worked with Logan Hobson and Robert Canobbio at Sports Information Data Base (SIDB), of Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey.

    Gibbs was the developer of TenniSTAT, the first computer-generated statistics program for tennis, which was used by the US Open, Wimbledon, the Australian Open, and other major tournaments.
    At Hobson & Canobbio's request, Gibbs wrote the code for FightStat (also called PunchStat in some venues) and was used at Madison Square Garden's Felt Forum and in Reno for the 1985 HBO Boxing telecast of the Livingstone Bramble-Ray Mancini rematch for the WBA's world Lightweight title.

    After SIDB went bankrupt in 1985, Hobson and Canobbio renamed the program CompuBox and founded CompuBox Inc. Hobson later left the company in 2002.

    CompuBox's purpose is to settle controversies surrounding fights by counting each punch thrown by each of the fighters, and also each punch landed, to provide fight viewers with a final punchstat count and a perception of who should ideally be given the judges' decision, in the cases where a fight lasts the full distance.

    The system calls for two operators. Each operator watches one of the two fighters and has access to four keys, corresponding to jab connect, jab miss, power punch connect, and power punch miss. The operators key in the different punches as they happen, collecting punch counts and hit percentages along the way.

    Apart from HBO, CompuBox is also used by NBC and ESPN, among others. Former world champion Genaro Hernandez, a computer expert, was one of the men in charge of operating the system.

        Another one.. Remember my reply was Marquez face tells a different story. Nowhere did I say the guy with the most damage landed less.

          Yes after you tried using Marquez's face to wrongfuly claim that I said Pacman didn't land in response to what compubox is, weird.

                What does Marquez's face have to do with what compubox is though?? Like I said I never ever ever said Pacman didn't land, so your entire argument is based off of something that you made up.

                  (Most people don't know that its just some guy tapping away at punches that he believes landed) ???? I reply to that with Marquez face tells a different story.

                    Pacman did stand in one spot in some of the rounds in the Mosley fight because he was forced to due to leg cramps. As we've seen, he's one hell of a defensive fighter when he chooses to. Mosley was too terrified to come in. The crowd didn't like it. They booed them both. Pacman had to do something -- chase Mosley. It's not easy to beat an opponent to a pulp for entertainment if he's hell-bent on running for his life. And that's what ****** fans fail to realize.

                      1st off bro, the only commentator that was remotely accurate was kellerman that night. They called Marquez running. Fact is his back barely touched the ropes. Fact is the Pacman offense was hushed. Most of the clean effective punches were landed by Marquez. I've watched the fight about 10 times at least & Marquez owned the 11th.

                      Manny's footwork was garbage. All he used ot for was to jump in, throw meaningless punches & dart away. He coudn't trap Marquez, he never hurt him & Roach was begging for a ko. Compubox was way way of. Most people don't know that its just some guy tapping away at punches that he believes landed. If Merchant or that other idiot were doing compu box, you'd swear the fight was a 1 sided beating in favor of Pacman.

                      And my reply was I guess Marquez face tells a different story.....
