    All the judges need is a helmet with wires attached so they get 240 volts if they dont press a button when the other judges do!
    and the reverse when they press it alone .
    Oh ok then ,just make it 220 .

    Seriously though a few volts would help but They also need monitors in front of their faces so that they can look at the screen when the ref or the other fighter is in the way of the action as happens with at least one judge in each combo.

    But I cant understand it for you.

    I was thinking perspective is a big problem especially when they are close.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    It's a bad scoring system, and the judges are making it even worse by making bad use of the system.

    Boxing is not about punch-counting, especially when the punch-counting system ignores jabs and body shots.
