    Should be noted Compubox isn't 100% accurate, sorry to break hearts about it. There's been fights where different punchcount machine, or whatever the hell they are (I have absolutely no clue), have different connect counts. I actually saw shots that connected that weren't picked up on the new "Punches Landed in this Rounds" that HBO put up.

    and 929 punches thrown is very impressive for a heavyweight. I remember the Sam Soliman/Winky Wright fight where Merchant and Lampley were criticizing Soliman for throwing so many punches because he would tire out. Unfortunately they weren't as aware of Soliman's fighting as I was, that throwing 1000+ punches was the only way for him to be effective against Winky Wright's defense. Although Soliman lost, he fought his fight and it wasn't onesided because of Sam's offense.

    Okay some expert scores:

    Harold Lederman had it 117-111
    Michael Marley disagrees completely, he agrees with the judge who had Povetkin ahead 119-109
    Dan Rafael had it 117-111

    I voted cant tell. Its possible that he will get his ass kicked by Wlad, but he did do good and his workrate and stamina could pose a problem if he takes him into the later rounds.
