It's retarded. A guy who beats the shit out of his opponent in a round should, for all intents and purposes, get more of an advantage on the scorecards than a guy who pulled out a close "feeling out" round.

Of course I'm talking about Bradley getting his ass handed to him in round 2 by his Siberian opponent, only for it to be scored 10-9.

They have the right to hand out a 10-8 without a knockdown, I just wish these people judges would have the balls to do it.
While I agreewith your statement I think it’s very difficult to draw the line between a 10-9and a 10-8 round and I’m afraid that will generate more controversies. More thanthat, this could become a dangerous tool in the hands of corrupted judges.
Completely agree with this. Could get far too controversial. I have a few that not nearly enough rounds are scored even in boxing. There should be a lot more 10-10 rounds then there are and I believe this would make scorecards a lot fairer. Again I haven't see the recent Bradley fight yet but lookin at Marquez v PAC, I think I had 3 or 4 tied rounds which the judges gave to PAC (the rounds I give tied almost always go to the hometown or popular fighter) which if actually scored as ties would have given Marquez the W.
