Comments Thread For: CompuBox: Manny Pacquiao's Punch Stats By The Minute

[Danny Gunz]

Everyone acknowledges that Manny won that fight decisively. It still doesn't make it right that those commentators were given full credits to Manny for punches that he landed, but barely said anything when Bradley had his moments. The only one who appeared to be unbiased that night was, Max Kellerman.

Did you guys really think Bradley had that many moments though? He did so little the whole fight except throw these arm punches that were either blocked or glancing blows.

They werent praising Bradley because there was nothing to praise he looked lost in the ring

Manny was missing alot of his punches but the hbo commentators kept getting excited like he did, even the crowd followed the same. I think the fight could have been a draw or a Bradley win. Manny didn't do enough in the closing rounds which he should have and that i believe caused him his lost.

stop the lies.. pacroid lost fair.. how the media.. they all are lying.. lol people like to be conned

Actually you're the 10th person now who thinks Bradley won, keep em coming!

I dont see what bradley did to win this.

I saw maybe 2 hooks and 1 uppercut. The rest were jabs.

Pac had much better offense, much better defense.

I thought this was a game of hit and not get hit.

BTW Manny didn't have to do anything in the last rounds, coz what I saw from the 1st up to the 3rd time I watched the fight Bradley was basically trying to survive. What Diaz was saying to Bradley is keep your defense up son and survive you're losing anyway. nuff said.

That was some selective clips, what a load of crap. Now play the whole fight.

Pac basically only fought 2/3 of the fight. Which means he basically gave away 33% of it.

An evenly paced continuously active boxer would be throwing around 30-33% every round.

It said he threw 48% in the last minute and 17% in the first minute.......
100% - 48% = 52% = round 1 & round 2 punches......52%-17% = 35% = round 2 punches

It oesn't mean that he "gave away a third of it" . It depends on how much Bradley was throwing in that first minute, and how much shut-off he was for the last 2 minutes. Compubox hasn't broken it down that far, but if they did, you could easily see that likely Pacquiao waa throwing about or close-to as much as Bradley in that first minute. The over-all difference is too much for it to be otherwise. Pacquiao connected with nearly double the amount of power shots to Bradley's 100+. You could work it out in seconds, I don't want bother.

It also just means that he connected 17% in the 1st minute, doubled it up in the second and increased it again by a third in the 3rd minute. What's wrong with that.

He was chased Bradley in the 1st minute, caught up with him in the 2rd, and brought him to bay in the 3rd. Quite normal.

Whining about HBO commentary is weak. What about the people that saw it live? They all still thought Manny won comfortably. Mayweather Sr included.
Even if Manny took the first few minutes off, what did Bradley do? Hop around and punch his gloves?

There is bias introduced live as well. The crowd sways your opinion.

Can anyone give an analysis on how Bradley actually won the fight? Are there any strong points in his favor, such as: clean effective punches (no), defense (no), effective aggression (50/50), ring generalship (50/50). Pac landed more clean punches, Pac landed the harder power shots and yes, Pac actually displayed a better defence. Something I favored Bradley pre-fight. Bradley could not land many clean, hard shots at all and blocked Pac's straight lefts with his face all night, People can re-watch the fight and score as many pitter patter punches on the guard or gloves of Pac all they want but the facts are Bradley landed very few CLEAN PUNCHES throughout whatever minute, second or round breakdown compubox wants to display. Easy fight to score in my unprofessional opinion.
