The breakdown of .5 seems like a decent avenue but can only imagine it becoming even more a chaotic exercise in fractions. Not that it wouldn't work in theory but again, it all comes down to a judges training, standards and accountability that need to be improved first imo.
That round scenario sounds exactly like Holyfield vs Moorer 1 round 2 as an example. One that has always stood out for me. Maybe because I'm a Holyfield fan and the round ultimately cost him the title . Moorer boxed very well with that sharp thudding jab most of the round if I remember right. Winning it early no doubt and near the very end Holyfield catches him clean with hook for hard knockdown. Now to me that in instantly a -1 from Moorer. It doesn't matter how well he boxed and how many he landed, clearly Holyfield did the hurting. To me it erased whatever work he did or at the very least proved more effective. A lone judge scored it 10-10 even. I'd score it 10-9...minus the 10 point must system 9-9 as Holyfield 'lost' much of the round. But in NO way should Moorer be given a 10 point round. It's just false.
