    Why did HBO cover up the POWER PUNCH stat?

    Why did HBO refuse to display the power punch connects on the post-fight analysis, and during the fight. They harped on Rahman's jabs, but refused to talk about landed power punches.

    Does anyone have access to the Compubox punch stats for the fight?

    Toney 115-113

          Probably just a timing issue, because they didn't list jabs either.

          But I have found out that Toney outlanded Rahman 215-159 in power punches.

            i guess cause toney in heavy hits light so they dont consider it a power punch cause there's not alot of power behind it besides if he was in a lower weight division and rahman jabed the whole night

              Yeah there might have been some conspiracy:

              116-112 Rahman.

                Non sense. A power punch is a power punch. There isn't a guy or a rule who decides who hits hard enough to register a power punch or not.

                A hook, uppercut and cross is a power shot.

                If it wasn't, Chris Byrd wouldn't be credited with anything.

                  It would be interesting to know how exactly CompuBox works...
