Open scoring, are you for or against?

[Violent Demise]

Sam Peter stayed on his stool because he was getting his ass kicked.
Every pro sport is entertainment.
You weren't watching the same Canelo vs Trout fight I was, when Trout learned the official score his intensity jumped and if that fight had been 15 rounds I think he would have won.
Open scoring might be wrong for boxing, but I want to see it get a real trial.

My argument was that Alvarez' took away the entertainment factor and boxed off the back foot rather than in his usual come forward style. If he hadn't have known, he wouldn't have coasted and would have continue to press for the finish. You want to see fighters try for 12 rounds, and open scoring often elimanates this.

Sir, how can one fighter kickback and relax when the other fighter is stepping up his intensity, now that's the beauty of open scoring. When the losing fighter starts fighting harder, the only thing the winning fighter can do is fight harder. Oh, hell yes brother, that's the beauty of open scoring.
Open scoring, a beautiful thing!!!!

Give me one example of that happening in a fight? It certainly did not happen Saturday night. Once Trout was told that he was behind 6 rounds in round 8 he mentally folded and did not step up his intensity.It may have appeared that way a bit but its only because Alvarez stopped trying to impose his will.Oh hell no brother,that's the danger of open scoring and its a double edged sword and especially the guy who actually believed he was in the fight and possibly winning it. I can see the example you raised had they told Trout he was behind a point or two but that's not what happened.

If that's the case than didn't deserve to win and doesn't deserve to be call champion. After the 8th he had 4 rounds to go all out for the knock out. And didn't. He should of done what Pernell Whitaker did to Diobleys Hurtado when he was behind. And keep in mind Whitaker was even less of a knock out fighter than Trout

You "go for the knockout"..... and it's sometimes the quickest way to get knocked out yourself. Knockouts are like homeruns in baseball. They come by themselves. To be forced to abandon your gameplan because you have to go for the homerun is just stupid. For someone who likes to accuse everyone of "not knowing shit about boxing"...... you certainly know even less than shit.

He's losing the fucking fight. And he knows he's losing the fight. So obviously the game-plan isn't fucking working. And you think he should continue following that same losing game-plan? Now you see what I'm talking about when I say you're a fucking idiot? I don't say it just cuz I enjoy it. I say it cuz it's fucking true. Do yourself a favor and go watch the Pernell Whitaker-Diobleys Hurtado fight. And tell me Whitaker would of still won the fight is he kept following his original game-plan
