    CompuBox is an aid for guys who don't know Boxing well enough to score a fight independantley.

    Sometimes Compubox tells the story of the fight other times it doesnt

    it should not be used to determine who won after the fact just like a picture of their faces next to each other to compare damage shouldnt be a determiner either

    90% of boxing fans couldn't score a fight properly if their lives depended on it, and compubox just makes it worse as do the commentators.

    Juan's 3rd fight with emmanuel

    Marquez tightly outlanded emmanuel based off the numbers of the 1st and 2nd fight. 10 punch edge for Juan 1st time. 15 punch edge for Juan the 2nd time. The 3rd fight was clearly Juan's most dominant performance where he took roid to school, but the numbers give a 38 punch edge to roid.

    For me, Compubox is something people resort to using when they have nothing else to back their reasoning.

    Do you think any 1 networks compubox is more accurate

    like does espn or hbo or sho do better or worse than each other

    is it more accurate when the network doesnt have an agenda or bias for the fight

    do they blimp it up in a boring fight

    yessir

    although I found with many robberies they don't bother to distort the stats for the fighter getting a gift

    williams lara for example they didn't care to fix the numbers and make it look like tall paul landed more even though HBO protects his AZZ

    do u think any of the networks stats are better than others or are they all bad

    i feel espns are fine cause they dont seem to have an agenda lately and have had more 50/50 fights

    i think commentary improves in an agenda free bout

    i watched soto vs guzman on hbo again and the commentary and lederman judging was better than usual because it was a 50/50 fight wherethe network didnt care who won

    Definitely JMM-Pac III. It seemed to me like they were counting all the punches Pac was landing on JMMs arms and shoulders.

    It was ridiculous looking at the end of a round and see Pac had an edge landing when JMM would dominate the round.

    Agreed half them shots wasn't even landing, but I guess the guy doing the compubox numbers was having a BANG BANG BANG BANG moment:lol:
