They scored on a 10 point must system back then I don't think so...
Yeah that is very odd.
Yeah there wasn't a 10 point must system back then, there was a round by round system

As in if Ali won rounds 1-2-3-4 and liston won round 5 with round 6 even it would be

4-1-1

I don't think there was a 10 point must back then. Heck there wasn't even one when Ali fought Frazier.
Thats the first fight i thought of when i read that post. When i look up those things on boxrec none of it really makes sense. The liston appears to be a 10 point must system while the first frazier fight was the round by round system and the chuvalo fight (which happened after the liston fight and before the frazier fight) is the 5 point must system
I think boxrec got it wrong. Because there was no 10 point must system back then.
They had to of. The 5 point system for chuvalo is accurate because i've seen the fight numerous times and they announce it as such. And i know for a fact ali frazier 1 was a round by round.

edit: i'm looking to find when the 10 point must was introduced but since i haven't yet i fell upon something thats kinda interesting.
