Re: What was your scorecard?
I'm pretty sure the wording that judges use is which fighter was more "effective" in the round. I think we can all agree that you don't have to land more punches to be the more effective fighter. I thought Taylor's punches were simply causing more damage than Winky's so to me it didn't matter that winky landed more. I'll be honest I was suprised when I saw the compubox numbers. It didn't seem like Winky outlanded him. The fight was hard to judge. It was very hard to see just how many of Jermain's punches actually landed. Regardless of whether or not his punches got through Winky's guard they stopped his momentum, made him cover up and backed him up. Now maybe not all of the punches got through but I'd say they were effective. Winky has to out land his opponents b/c his punch doesn't scare anybody. I gave Taylor 7 rounds quite often b/c I thought the punches he did land were more effective and meanigful.
