    Those numbers are the most ridiculous I've ever seen. It's embarrassing that the media and fans are posting them like they're facts.

        Idk how many more punches Manny landed than Horn, but I'm sure he did. If Compubox is 99% right or 80% right idk, but scoring & punch stats rarely match exactly.

        Neither method of gauging the story of the fight is 100% effective or 100% accurate. Although obviously the judges scoring is the official narrative of the fight.

        BUT lets not act like scoring has never been wrong all of a sudden either in the minds of many or most fans & pundits.

          Arum set the farce up to get a PPV for manny Paq off a loss

          Bob Greed Arum was so mad no one wanted this crap fight from Cable or PPV it had to go on free TV. Arum set the bad horrible decision loss up to get manny another PPV fight and a nice big fat check for the swarthy grimy greasy Manny Paq. No one in the USA cares about little Manny the pinoy greed monger. Now as for Horny the Aussie nothing it's a white champ for boxing despite the worthless WBO trinket belt it's a white guy as a temporary champion in boxing. Boxing needs more white guys a champs and Horny brings in the Australia all white fan base for now. It's a smart move by greedy Bobby Armpit Arum. PPV here we come.

            Watch round 1 and tell me how it's possible to have Pacquiao outlanding Horn like Compubox did. They must have had spoon doing the clicking.

            Not a chance in hell did Pacquiao land double the punches through the first 5 rounds like compubox had it. There's no defending those numbers.

              Manny Pacquiao had a 182-92 edge in total punches landed, hitting on 32%. Pacquiao had a 123-73 edge in power landed, bolstered by a huge ninth round. Jeff Horn threw more punches in nine of the twelve rounds, but landed just 15%

                Like I said I'm not saying Compubox is 100% correct. So I'm not defending whatever it is you think I'm defending. But I'm confident Manny outlanded Horn + confident Horn outthrew Manny. And outthrowing a guy can often fool judges into giving you rounds you don't deserve which is what I think these scorecards were about.

                Thanks. Idk how I missed that.

                  Manny didn't beat the hometown spread, the home cooking was to good, but it's the chest beating and after fight brogadacio that's galling. It's not like Manny was carried out on a stretcher, he was in better shape at the end. If Horn won at all, it was by the skin of his teeth.

                    I haven't posted not a single word regarding this fight past saturday because I saw it as an irrelevant thing but I watched the fight and I felt like a LOT of people had Manny steamrolling Horn where it's crystal clear that was not the case.

                    Regarding the "punchstats" which are a dude clicking buttons and which I never been a fan of them.

                    To just make a case for my point: Round 1 - According to 90% of the media and fans (Including Atlas who thought Manny won the fight) was won by Horn.

                    However if you go by "those punchstats" it should've been scored in Pacquiao's favor,

                    I swear I can't remember the ESPN punchstats from those first two rounds but I can remember seeing somehting like 29 to 13 in favor of Pacquiao, WTH is that?

                    Well you got my point, but to let it go I thought the fight was a very close one, just my humble and honest opinion.
