Exposing the inaccuracy of Compubox

[tjones1989]

did you count Floyd's punches while he was holding Pacquiao?

Those don't count, honestly he should have gotten a point deducted from all that holding.

my summary of the fight from analyzing it in depth. pac clearly won 6 rounds: 3,4,6,7,8, and 10. floyd clearly won 5 rounds: 1,2,5,11,12. The 9th round really was a toss up if i had to lean i would probably give it to pac for simply landing the harder punches. An even round is also fine and giving it to floyd isn't wrong at all. So my card would be either 7-5 pac, 6-5-1 even pac or a draw 6-6.

my reasoning: round 3 a lot of people seem to give to floyd but I can't see why. pac outlanded him in total punches, power punches, and had the best punch of the round. round 6 floyd actually outlanded pac 15-14 but most of floyd's punches were jabs while all of pacs were power to the head and body and he also had floyd wobbled. A clear example of a round where quality over quantity *****s. Round 8 was also an example of quality over quantity as floyd outlanded pac 11-9 but pac stunned him with 3 great flush punches. floyd's power punches lacked any authority or flushness in this round and pac landed the 3 best punches of the round that slightly troubled floyd so I think he deserves this round.

very well done....

Good analysis. I always wanted someone to do something like this with the Canelo fight because Floyds landed punches are vastly overstated in that bout also.

I agree, Floyd's dominance is always very much exaggerated. But he has the formula down and most people bow to him. All he has to do is show up, play defense. He does no damage to the opposition. As long as he isn't knocked out himself, the public by and large will proclaim that a dominant Mayweather win.

I didn't buy this fight because I knew it would stink but I watched it yesterday and my reaction was that it was a close fight and much more a draw than a runaway win for Mayweather.

Great thread and post. This is how people need to post when they wanna talk about judging.

The scorecards from farhood and letterman from rounds 6 to 12 made me think that they were bought off.

So now it's Compubox fault, there is no shame anymore on this website.

Did you even bother to read the post?

Yeah I don't get the logic and purpose of that post as well. The OP is putting the time and effort to present his thorough analysis with the help of technology. Who knows how many slo-mos he kept on rewinding just to get a conclusive opinion whether the punch was clean or not. And doing that over and over again is freaking tiresome and takes alot of time.

Posting nothing more than a "hahahahahahahahaha" on a thread like this is not only childish but simply pathetic. The least you could do is take the time and effort to do what the OP did and then post your own analysis.

I for one am sure that judges probably got some punches wrong (mistaking a blocked/missed punch for a hit; and mistaking a connecting punch for a miss). Who knows just how many they truly got wrong.

But I can't really blame them since they don't have the benefit of slo-mo replay before scoring a punch. I myself thought that not one of Manny's punches during his flurry landed on Floyd when he was doing the high guard. I thought for sure not a single one connected. Until I saw a clear pic of Manny's punch penetrating the side of Floyd's high guard and hitting him right smack in the side of the face.

thank you and yes it took about 3 hours to do. My numbers aren't perfect as i have mentioned simply because the definition of a punch isn't perfect. floyd's jab numbers probably could be a little higher but I just felt that some of those lil possible jab grazes didn't constitute punches and manny's power punches and body shots could probably be higher but I watched his flurries and a lot of times he simply wasn't landing clean so he didn't get any credit.

This thread really isn't even about floyd-pac that much. Yes maybe it sheds some new light about that particular fight but it's more about how compubox isn't very accurate and how people base their decisions on something that is not very accurate. You will even have commentators quoting compubox numbers right after a round and I don't think that is something they should be doing when we know the numbers are not very accurate.

Nice analysis Daggum.
I had it 8-4 for Floyd a lot of close rounds but in no way was it a a so called schooling.
Have not rewatched the fight but it's good that you were able to analyze. Compubox in no way is accurate but a rough estimate.

Only way to analyze the fight is to re watch it.
