Judges Scoring - My new System

[beenKOed]

mate boxing is the most corrupt sport in the world

or at least out of the sports i take note of

the burns beltram fight was a clear example

the klits pay the refs millions for their fights, if they do a good job they get to ref again and get another massive pay day, a good job involves letting wlad hold to the extreme

a bradley win in brad pac 1 paved the way to a rematch and another massive payday for their promoter, a pac win and the rematch would never have happened

I scored the burns fight a draw.

But that was mainly due to a style thing.. I don't like the whole "get you against the ropes and hit your arms" shit and that is basically all Beltran did but I enjoyed a guy with a broken jaw landing little counters when spinning off the ropes.

I'm Scottish also, but I'd like to think I'm fairer than that!

i could watch burns beltram again just to make sure but at the time i thought beltram won clearly

Oh he did. You can't score rounds to a guy because he has a broken jaw.

He wins everyone's respect, which means you might want to see him in the future, so he does win in the long run.
If the fight was competitive that is, who wants to watch an outclassed fighter get battered from corner to corner just to see how much heart he has.

Judging in boxing is by definition an opinion, all be it an official one that can/will affect peoples careers.

Short of turning the sport into something similar to fencing, the only thing that can be done is to make sure those judges who are chosen to score a fight are considered qualified to do so by their peers.

But this is boxing, and that has not and most likely will not ever happen.

So just go along with the ride, and look at the positives; there is always going to be a lot to talk about in boxing forums!
