    If you are going to make points, they have to hold water.
    If you have to add in a ten-point must/rounds system to make it somewhat accurate then you aren't using solely CompuBox anymore.

    Might as well add clean punching, effective aggression, ring generalship and defense too. That would make CompuBox even more precise.

      Learn the difference between a system and criteria first.

      Do you agree with compubox when used in a 10-9 point scoring system?

      BTW, it's clean hard punching. Which kinda takes 80-90% of the Mayweather punches out of the equation when he fought Pacquiao.

        Moreover, I thought he hurt and rocked Pac several times; Especially in the second half of the fight as Pac was gassing but just didn't have enough mustard to put him away.

        I am not naive or ******. I knew that Team Pac took the Thurman fight only because they knew he was no longer prime.

        Had he been prime then they wouldn't have taken the fight in the first place. They made a very smart business move and the right call.
        Thats how I saw it too. Manny needed a close rd 12 and a savvy knockdown in the 2nd to win the fight.

          It's clean punching. Stop trying to invent new criteria.

          And I don't use CompuBox to score fights. Period.

              When Floyd Mayweather steps in the ring with Conor McGregor, the event will surely break pay-per-view numbers. That said, it's hard to argue that boxing's glory days are far in the rearview mirror. So before you shell out the cash to watch one of the UFC's best lace up a pair of boxing gloves and |


              Hard and Clean Punches – To the untrained eye, it can appear as if a boxer is landing a lot of shots, when, in fact, most are being blocked or aren’t landing flush. A judge needs to look for hard shots that land clean.


              No wonder you been scoring your fights wrong.

                The stats are usually BS. They can give an idea but will not hold up as proof. That said, I doubt Thurman did more damage to Pac then Margarito did. Margarito hurt a prime Pac badly whereas a 40yr old Pac shrugged off Thurman's power shots.

                  Bottim line, using just CompuBox to score fights is as ridiculous as using facial damage.
