    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I cant say i do. I watched an Aussie guy called Little in the lightweight division. Of course I was supporting him cos im from oz, but i could not believe he won 14-2. I think it should have been maybe 10-5 or something but bi way that spread. I felt sorry for his Namibian opponent who was not getting points for landing the same punches the Aussie was.

    I agree with the poster who said sometimes points are like candy, sometimes the are like gold nuggets.

    Heres part of the rules covering what you guys were asking.


    "Bouts consists of a total of four rounds. Each round is two minutes in length with a one-minute interval between each round.
    Contests are won by knockout or on points.
    A point is awarded for a scoring hit with marked part of the glove on the opponent's head (side or front) or body (above the belt).
    A panel of five judges decides which hits are scoring hits.
    Judges each have two buttons before them, one for each boxer, and they press the appropriate button when they believe a boxer delivers a scoring hit.
    An electronic scoring system registers a point whenever three or more judges press the button for one boxer within a second of each other. No point is awarded for a hit unless three of the five judges agree.
    When two boxers trade blows in a flurry of infighting, where no full-force punches can land, the judges wait until the end of the exchange and award a point to the boxer who got the better of it.
    At the end of the bout, when each judge's points have been totaled, the boxer awarded the most points by a majority of the judges is declared the winner.
    If two boxers end up with the same number of points, the judges decide a winner by assessing such factors as which of the two took the lead and showed better style.
    If the judges determine those factors to be even, they turn to which competitor showed better defense.
    Punches to an opponent's arms do not score points.
    Punches that are judged to have no force behind them do not score points. When a boxer commits a foul, he faces a caution, a warning or, in extreme cases, disqualification. Two cautions for a particular offence mean an automatic warning, and three warnings of any kind mean disqualification."
