    You have no problem using compubox In an attempt to argue a win for Canelo, so how about this.

    According to ESPN, the Filipino landed 182 out of 573 punches (32%), and Horn scored with just 92 of his 625 attempts (15%). Pacquiao also edged him in the power punches, landing 123 out of 380 shots (32%) to Horn’s 73 out of 428 (15%).

    Is compubox only accurate when It benefits your favorite fighters? Why do you think that 95% of the people that watched the fight had Pacquiao winning?
    OMFG. I made a thread showing Compubox counting punches that didn't land in Canelo-Golovkin fight.

      I never took you off ignore. I don't want people that deflect off topic like you do in my threads.

          what happen to the "challenger must take the belt away from the champion"?? canelo sure didnt take the belt from ggg. canelo fought to survive not to win.

          Scoring is already such a hot button issue, blurring the criteria even more is not what we need.


          There is no advantage for the champion other than retaining the belt in the case of a draw. That's what "take the title from the champion" has always meant, and somewhere down the line it got swayed into people thinking it means there is some advantage given to the champion.

          The advantage is ONLY that the champion keeps his belts in the event of a draw, which is what happened here.

            It's called racial bias.

              No you deflect and don't know what you're talking about, as shown in this thread by you claiming i was using Compubox as evidence Canelo won.

                Dude, you are obsessed with race (in this case, I guess technically Nationality). It's all you ever post about. Relax with all that, homie.

                In any event, I'm not Mexican, and I'm fine with it being a draw.

                  I agree that no one dominated anyone, but a close round shouldn't go to the champ just because it was close.

                    Exactly! Then champs would just be trying to do enough to win the round because they know they're going to get the nod based on effort, which would make scoring more unreliable
