    I'd be surprised if Abraham landed that many.

    In fairness to AA, he was taking a huge amount of Ward's punches to the gloves. Although the jab was effective at keeping AA off him, Ward wasn't scoring a lot of those punches.

    Froch was shooting straight through the middle and actually scoring with the jab.

    I think he was trying to say that Abraham wobbled Froch and Ward momentarily. they were both cautious of his power and took advantage of his inactivity. thats the blueprint to beating Abraham, you act like they knocked him out.

    Punch stats are also a joke, POWER PUNCHES - is Compubox taking the punches? no its not so how the **** can it measure how hard you get hit! Its just something to keep the casual fans interested

    Of course! Everybody knows that punch stats are a joke. But by the same token, and in fairness AA, he was taking a HUGE amount of Ward's punches to the gloves. Although the jab was effective at keeping AA off him, Ward wasn't scoring a lot of those punches.

    It was noted that Abraham also landed something like 40% against Froch, but I thought and noted years ago that Abrahams power was overated and he made no impression on genuine SMWs like Froch and Ward

    The reason Abraham lands at such a high percentage is because he doesn't punch until he sees a clear opening.
