    I'm with that I just don't think a fighter needs a nanny. A quality corner and fighter can read the scene and fight and should never relax in hopes of judges. Judges will screw them regardless of open or not.

    Why would any fan object to a fighter knowing the official score as the fight moves along? What's the big problem?
    I don't want them to have a nanny, I want them to know the score or you could say the truth.
    Knowing the running score hasn't seemed to hurt other pro sports, I don't see why it would have a negative effect on boxing.
    If the scores are going the wrong way, you know when to start booing.
