    We would have a lot of bad refs. I mean seriously Kahn was still fighting back and throwing some punches.

    I think he matches up well with everyone but bradley and ortiz. I think Otiz gives him a tough match up too because Khan doesn't have the looping shot that Ortiz seems to not be able to deal with and will have to deal with Victors straight left bomb. Bradley will just maul khan with headmovement to get inside and Khan will have to take him out early because bradley will go to the body and slow khan down. Khan will have to make sure for certain that he has Joe Cortez for that fight.

    I think Khan takes Alexander, Kotelnic (again) and Judah for that matter. Judah will be scary at first but Khan will dust him off after the 5th or 6th if he survives the early judah which he should if he is cautous.

    Yeah but you have **** for brains so who cares what you think... not to mention that you predicted about 400 times that Khan would be knocked out in the first round.

    That's BS. I haven't watched the 4th many times, but I've gone back and re-watched the 11th several times and I keep scoring it for Maidana. Kahn threw a handful of punches at best over the course of the first 90 seconds, then landed two or three decent 2-3 punch combos over the course of the final 90 seconds. Maidana landed consistently throughout the round with upper-cuts, right hooks and body shots. I can't give Kahn a round when he ran and gave away the first half, then barely shaded the second half.

    Compubox proves **** all and no self-respecting boxing fan would use it seriously.

    I thought the decision was fair. Terrific fight, Khan won a close one.

    After just rewatching the 4th round sober I will have to change it to a Khan round barely. I don't know if I would have wanted to be Khan after that round but he won it IMO. This would turn my decision in Maidana's favor 113-112 to a win for Khan 113-112. Still rewatching the rest of the fight so i will get back when I'm done to see if I score it the same for the last 8 rounds.

    Compubox and Punchstat is BS and people only bring it up when it suits thier oppinion of who won the fight. Them idiots who press that button cant tell a punch to the face from one to the chest or shoulder. I wish there was a way to perfect it but I can't think of anything that would eliminate human error or curruption. I also can't bare to think of something electronically like the old amature scoring system.

    The best I can think of is strict evaluations in a way to make sure someone is capable of telling the difference between landed and missed shots, especially in the case of flurries. If they are all ready doing this then there is not hope for getting anything close to accurate.

    The ones in this fight were flat out horrible and looked borderline currupt. Sometimes it seems like Compubox is there to justify a robbery. I don't think this fight was a robbery but I have seen fights that make you say GTFOH, WTF, and OMG when you see those punch stats. You know, like the Kotelnic vs Alexander fight. It is always the worst when a home fighter is using his crowd advantage and throwing flurries to get the crowd screaming when in reality he is landing nothing.

    Other things that seem like they are there to justify robberies sometimes, are bias commentating and lederman's scorecard LOL. Press row scoring at Showtime is usually the most accurate if I were to average them out.
