Comments Thread For: CompuBox: Malignaggi Throws More, Broner Lands More

I think the Networks see stats as part and parcel of sports broadcasting, that's the only reason it exists. Makes me laugh when Jim Lampley rolls out the compubox stats at the beginning of every round like it's the score from the previous round.

Ah, the power of suggestion...I could hear Lampley's voice in my head as I read this. lol

We agree; it's just a gimmick. It wouldn't be so bad if some people didn't buy into Compubox like it's some alternate form of scoring.

I can't even think about Compubox without hearing Lampley. Almost every time I think, "Those numbers can't possibly be right."
