Should there be a standard for judging fights?
Seems to be a lose sort of science,
The three judges might be more interested in a more active fighter,
or a point-scoing fighter or mark-down a back-peddler/runner.
There should be one clear system for judging so fighters don't get robbed.
RJJ vs Taver I was an example of poor judging. Cory Spinks seems to get judged
a winner in his fights when others disagree.
What are your thoughts?

Some judges suck!!!
What about if the round by round man hands in a card, the ref & one judge?

The judges tonight sucked..but Roy beat Tarver ;) He won the CHampionship rounds and wanted it more and Tarver flurrying on the arms of RJ in the last 30 seconds dont win you the fight

Yeah I agree Jones one the 1st fight, Tarver did next to nothing the last few rounds. Tarver tried to say Jones was the one trying to win the fight by flurrying in the last part of each round when the reality was it was Tarver.

The 10-point is not good though despite questionable wins and loses for
the top fighters.
I believe there should be a change in the judging system.
Whoever lands enough clean punches per round,
and fighters who run should be marked down (Mayweather for example).
Maybe the RJJ-Traver fight was not a good example,
but the Oscar De La Hoya Vs Felix Trinidad fight is....
Oscar banked enough rounds to win that fight, except for the
last 3 rounds of running.

P.S Everyone here always says the opposite of the judges about big fights,
that proves the judging has been bad for a long time.

you could not be more right mate!
the jones tarver fight was not a good example as it was no screwjob it was clear that jones did win but just not very convincingly it wasnt controversial though.
and oscar and felix is a perfect example yes oscar must have had the fight at least 7 rounds to six, no knockdowns or points taken away so oscar should have won, but it seems that judges have a stragne problem seeing tactical greatness when you stick and move i mean he wasnt on the attack he would move move move hit hit and then move and he was clearly winning but they must have seen tito chasing him and scored it for tito, thats certainly something big name judges need to look at and do something about. so moving around i mean i think one judge had it acceptably a draw but the rest were at least two rounds out ??? and the post fight comment from oscar was right it was a boxing lesson , but he shouldnt have ran for the last 3 rounds.
