    please stop quoting those stats as if they're even somewhat correct. that's especially true for the power shots... Joe landed maybe 3 or 4 power shots the entire fight. i think Joe did enough work to win but it was not a blow out and if you watched the goddamn fight you know that he was missing all night and day, and got only a handful of good shots in.

    i can't believe that some morons here are trying to pretend that Joe was mroe effective with his punches and that "he landed 100 more power punches!" you've gotta be ****in blind and ******ed to think that bull**** is true (or you missed the fight). i'm not a nuthugger for either but Hopkins was definitely more effective and landed really the only power punches of the night. if anyone wants to point out some rounds where Joe landed power punches i'm all for it.

    Compubox has never been the greatest thing since sliced bread.
    It´s numbers...they don´t tell you HOW hard a power punch hit.
    And by definition a power punch is every punch besides the jab, so it´s not automatically an indication of hard punches landed.

    Hop won that fight. I hate fans who get impressed by flurries and slaps. You have to see that those 'punches' didn't land and all Calz did was flail his arms around. At least I'm not the only one disappointed by the judging.:-( Calz really didn't impress me at all last nite.

    Didn't I say Calzaghe won, you dumb piece of ****? I give a ****. If you don't, don't read my ****in thread. Fanboys are using it to support their reasoning behind Calzaghe's win and I think it's goddamn ridiculous.

    Power shot is defined as anything but a jab by them, which explains it somewhat.

    I wouldn't use compubox in a month of Sundays. It is a flawed, overhyped piece of **** (Although Beebs has a point). Calzaghe won clearly without any help from it at all.

    'You dumb piece of ****'?? Good to see your 'greatest universities' are serving you well.
