    1st of all only seen highlights but seems like everyone thinks pacquiao won the fight

    but check this round out and look at the compubox stats at the end

    :yikes

    That bad. I counted close to 25 punches landed for Bradley. Pacquiao didn't even land 14, and compubox had them each landing 14. They clearly pulled those numbers directly out of their ass. :deal

    I stopped believing in compu box a long time ago, These swayed numbers for the most popular fight has been happening for a long time. you can go back to Oscar/Witaker and count those punches and see how off those were. Once again in that fight HBO was calling punches the noone else seen land.

    It is neither good nor bad. It is a tool. It's how you use it that matters, not the tool itself.

    Hbo love Manny, they had him winning 119-109. Very biased coverage from Hbo and compubox means **** all but I agree that Manny was robbed.

    Watching the fight they defently gave Pacquiao crdit for punches he didn't land and didn't give Bradly creddit for punches he did land.
