    I think 10-10 rounds should be scored more often. I think the WBA uses a .5 scoring system for certain minor titles. I wonder if that would help or not. A clear round winner 10-9. A close round 10-9.5 etc. Or does that just create more chaos?

    Chaos
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Too much detail, keep it simple.

    Yes scoring should be kept simple, hence my agreement with more 10-10 rounds. The .5 system sounds good in theory but I think it still has it's controversies.

    In theory it's not a bad idea. Give the scoring a finer adjustment, so tight rounds can be scored accordingly. Unfortunately, most judges probably have a hard time with whole numbers from 1 to 10..... imagine how they'd do with decimal places.
