Magno vs. Machine: The Decision

After a long-winded process that has lasted six months, we have finally come to the end of Magno vs. Machine.

And after twelve rounds of evenly-fought action, we have a split decision on the cards.

And the winner, of the 21st century boxing-related battle of man vs. machine, by split decision... Paul Magno!

Paul Magno sneaked the victory with the last fight of the contest, predicting a Dirrell victory in the Super 6 Boxing Classic fight against Arthur Abraham on March 27.

Both predictor records were impressive, with Magno (17-3, 2 KO) and the Machine (16-4, 3 KO), who predicted the correct winner twelve times in a row from November through March.

Paul Magno has kept his reputation as the boxing encyclopedia in human form, and achieved John Henry’s feat of defeating a multi-functional machine in Title Bout Championship Boxing 2.5.

The Machine is considering filing a protest about the decision, but it would likely be snubbed by The Boxing Tribune, who sanctioned the bout. However, both camps have entered negotiations for a rematch later on in the year.
