    What is the fastest and most effective way to clearly win a round? It's to hurt the opppnent.

    Jacobs gassed from 10-12 imo. Both guys won their rounds clear. Round 1 decided the fight because i thought that, that was the only close round.

    Of course you did, you forgot to mention that while you were posting about the Jacobs imaginary bet of 500 being "easy money".

    No I didn't have money on the fight, I wish I had money on Rungvisai though.

    I don't think Gonzalez realizes that the guys take his punches better at 115. He also wasn't counting on getting robbed, in his defense. Karma though. He got the ref to deduct a point from Wangek or whatever his name is, when none of those head clashes looked intentional. Both boxers just lean forward and come in with their head.

    He wasn't as strong as the middle rounds I agree. But Golovkin didn't exactly capitalise and take over. It wasn't a lot to go by for a lot of rounds. For long periods you had to reward ring generalship or impression management I think.

    Wonder if that was the weight cut? It wasn't a fast paced fight.

    Sure but you can also win a round by just landing more punches then they do ....anyhow going to bed and I don't think this arguments really going anywhere.

    And that bothers you to the point of hatred? Bitterness?

    Somebody wearing a sombrero, dancing and fighting what is described as a Mexican style seems a little bit of an overreaction to a hat, a dance and a fighting style.

    One champion and top 5 P4P fighter out lands his challenger by 150 punches and loses, the other champion and P4P top 5 fighter looks like he only won 4 rounds, maybe, and he gets the win...Boxing.

    You do realize that Compubox is two people at ringside pushing buttons right? Worse than Olympic boxing scoring. That being said. I did think that Golovkin's jab when he used it, won him rounds. It was the more effective jab in my opinion, as it seemed to make contact in a scoring fashion, more often than that of Jacobs.

    Maybe I'll lend you some, if you ask nicely.

    It's all good though. And Spurs without Kane will find it hard against Southampton. Going with a draw.
