      If boxing was perfect, with perfect judges, Floyd wins 7-5. You can not lose the first 5 rounds, rack up most of your punches in the next 5 rounds, and then ease off in the championship rounds. Castillo had an amazing rounds 6-10 iirc, that's where he really stacked on his compubox punches. But outlanding someone, for example, 300 punches to 250, but the majority of those punches came in a limited number of greats rounds, while the guy who landed 250 punches landed them in 7 rounds where he won, doesn't mean you won

      Like paying a credit card 3 times a month, doesn't mean it's going to count for paying 3 statements...So you paid your card 3 times, good for you, we still got another statement for you next month (if you have a balance). Castillo doing great in 5 rounds, in landed punches, doesn't mean he won the next 3 rounds automatically...he still has to put in work for 7 of 12 rounds to win the fight. When I use compubox in my argument for a fight, I make sure to do it round by round, not overall (not saying you in particular are using cbox as your argument)

                why would you use compubox in an argument? hey guys here are some inaccurate numbers to prove my case!

                  I always say, whether you think Floyd won or lost, a lot of fighters would have taken that W and ran with it. Same as the Maidana first fight, Floyd won that but it was a hell of a rough night for him but he took him on again to win more clearly.

                  A lot of fighters should take note i.e. Canelo, he would never dream of getting in with Lara again to prove he's the better fighter.
                  to clinch more clearly yes

                    Castillo won that fight. Mayweather tried but he never executed well.
