it wouldnt take very long and if is really seen as a problem then fix it. if not, then fire the bad judges.
From being front row at a few fights I can say the angel does play a part. I have scored fights differently at fights and then after watching replay on tele, both amateur and pro fights. Another huge factor is crowd reaction etc. For me judges shouldnt be at ringside, they should be in separate rooms with a TV monitor.
