B-Hop Vs Jean Pascal Spoilers.

[Kev]

i think in fights where there have been early knockdowns the scoring system can be changed slightly to give the fighter suffering the knockdown a chance to recover the point lost.......like lastnight....after the 3rd round if hopkins could comeback within the next 6mins to take control of the fight with effective punching and take control of centre ring then there should be a 11-9 round so as to prove it was a flash knockdown......to many guys are given to big a lead from a nothing knockdown..........there has to be a window for a fighter to say " look it was a balance shot but i've comeback to show i wasnt hurt, i've straight away pressed home my advange in the ring to the point the other fighters on the run "

An 11-9 round, that's nuts

There is already a perfectly fine system in place. If the judges think the knockout wasn't harmful and that that the guy who was knocked down they can actually decided to only rule it a 10-9 round, as indeed did one of the judges last night.

And if a fighter is so dominating a round without knocking down his opponent he can get a 10-8 round without a knockdown, as did Maidana against Khan last weekend.

The current system is fine.

hahaha very good mate, i was messing about. the current system is the best......all we need is honest judges who know what boxing is about...to many times everyone see's who won the fight but the people payed, sitting in the best seats seem to get it totally wrong, there has to be some kind of review system something that lets these poeple killing the sport know that anything less then good work will not be excepted

I think we as fight fans tend to be very partisan though. I felt Hopkins won too, but the get dropped twice in his opponent's backyard was always going to be a huge hurdle to overcome.

Tarver scored it for Pascal 114-112, one of the ringside newsporter scored it in Pascal's favour too. It was a close fight. Most of us felt Hopkins won but I don't think a draw is a corrupt result. Scoring is subjective at the end of the day therefore there will always be decisions we will disagree with.

In the end there was no loser, and hopefully we will get to see it again.

This may be a tad off topic but how would you guys see Tavoris Cloud doing vs Hopkins and Pascal?
