Hopkins vs. Pascal Fight Thread

[Spicoli]

It's a 10-point must system. That is the master scorecard, not what the judges write on (check the identical handwriting). The judges scores are collected at the end of each round.

As I said in another thread - for all the moaning and groaning Van De Wiele did Hopkins a big favour by scoring round one 10-9.

Not really, if you win a round and get a flash knockdown at the end, it's alright to score a 10-9. Fact.

Says who? Based on what??

Happens alot. KD's fortunately do not mean mandatory 10-8 rounds, especially flash ones resulting in little to no damage in an otherwise even or uneventful round.

Oh well, you learn something new everyday!

I wonder how that little gem has affected fights with multiple flash knockdowns from both fighters..?
I mean, in those circumstances, I wonder if the judges look at each KD seperately or if after the 1st one or two KD's they then reconsider the validity of each one there after?

Surprised at this result, Hopkins is a top fighter, really thought he was going to be convincingly beat.
