    A fight that almost everyone thought no one won/lost? Most of the time, when the decision is a draw/majority draw, people would say someone got robbed. But was there any fight that you truly felt both fighters won 6 rounds apiece (no 10-8 rounds)?

    Hmmm tough one that as fight scoring is so subjective

    .... maybe Eubank v Benn II

    Most people thought that Benn should get the decision.

    Holyfield - LL I :lol:

    I think that's a good one. I don't know anyone who thought that fight wasn't close as hell.

    I know most won't agree but I thought a draw was a good decision for Pac-JMM I.

    I've scored a few fights 6-6, Kessler-Froch for instance. Youll never have everybody agreeing though.

    I thought Martinez vs. Williams 1 was far to close to give to either guy, a draw probabily would've been the fair result.

    Crap I would have to go back on this ?
    I am one of the few people I knew who scores allot of rounds 9-9 (never 10-10 cause no one won the round and I can do addition unlike those judges)

    It is all for the same reason why we have 10 point rounds anyway
    To make it MORE EXCITING. All sports (except baseball - YET) score a single as something higher.
    Judges wont get hired if they score allot of even rounds
    It is almost like a juror selection. They want ref's who have, in the past, gone in favor of the fighter who fits their guys style...

    Wright/Taylor for me also. That fight was super close and rounds were tough to score.

    I personally had margo Vs Williams a 6-6 fight but Williams has a case for taking the last round and margo 5-11, maybe.....I liked that fight

    Off the top of my head.... Tua-Ruiz.

    Although some people tend towards giving Tua the nod in that one.
