Open Scoring

[Swashbuckling Gordy]

I've wondered why the prescise scores are read out.

Why cant the judges JUST let the fighters know who is winning ?

think about it going in to the round 9 and knowing your 4 rounds up and only have to stay on your feet to win or win another round , your simply told your winning .

Especially in a close battle were 2 fighters are boxing completely different fights the classic fighter - boxer sceneario one judge is siding with the more aggressive come forward fighter and the other 2 side with the better point scoring of the boxer .

Surely the worst thing to know is 2 judges have you 5 up and 1`has you 2 down ,you are then simply told 2 judges have you winning .


Just because a figther is winning after round 3 ,6 and 9 doesnt mean he is winning by a huge margain or that the figth isint swinging back and forth .

The current system is stupid .

Open scorinig is the stupidest experiment in boxing history. I hope it goes away soon.
