What's the best way to have fights scored fairly?

[Master]

I would have 5 judges.

could ai scoring be used alongside judges as another scorecard?

Saw this too and really has the feel of putting a shine and wax on a car still in need of major engine repairs. Basically it takes the punch stat side of things as gospel to an accurate account of how a round breakdowns. The substance therein and definition of "effective punches" in favor of amateur boxing bean counter. Personally I'll take a single counter uppercut that stuns fighter A rather than 10 flick jabs just scratching the chin of fighter B. May have a few fighters who master the art of jousting from the backseat and corners keeping count and such. It is a consideration that boxing can take from though, an attempt to improve judging and that has to be welcome in many forms.

AI should be used for stats and aid the judges but not to decide the round themselves. We need the human element to do that. If that subjectivity means rounds being given to the wrong boxer so be it.

i'm sure i saw something about censors in gloves awhile back, if used together it could some type of indication of how a round played out. i'd be interested to see how the ai scored some controversial fights

Two referees in the ring and five judges ringside Plus two independent punch counters combined into an algorithm to give an instantaneous logarithmic calculation of which fighter actually won the fight

I will stick with my answer from ONE YEAR ago

Ran across this but not sure how it would be implemented and sounds more for training or bag work. Sensors/chips interesting but could give a whole new meaning to pause for technical difficulties. Have we even settled on a universal glove tape that stays wrapped

Just have a fight to the death, no judges, no need for opinions...simples.

they say they put all that tech in the nfl balls that record a lot of information so the technology is there, just needs to be tweeked. you are right, until there everyone is onboard & are looking to advance the sport nothing will improve, look at instant replay, that should already be in use everywhere
