Should we have 10-10 scoring?

Yes sir, and I use 10-10 on my own scorecards if the round is basically even, I feel I'm pretty proficient on scoring a fight, I use the standard criteria and score bouts unbaised.

Also, the 10-8 should be used more liberally for rounds that just brutal dominations, but no KD's, often they aren't.

Take Mijares-Arce type rounds and just about every round of Mayweather-Gatti for example. When one guy landed very little and got stunned and thrown around the ring brutally, ought to be an automatic 10-8.

It'd help these disgusting ass scorecards.

 

I would love to see more 10-10 rounds. It's the fighters job to win a round if he doesn't win it he shouldn't get credit for it.

 

Yeah, but as you said, boxing is VERY hard to score to begin with and even using this method leaves plenty of room for corruption.

 

2right

 

I score some rounds 10-10. I'd like to see more judges score more rounds 10-10. This is especially important in the early rounds of a lot of fights. I also notice fighters stealing rounds by winning the last 60 seconds when they didn't do **** for the first 2 minutes. Those rounds should also be 10-10 rounds. More liberal use of 10-8 scoring would also be justified. You don't have to knock a guy down to thoroughly kick his ass! Furthermore, not every knockdown justifies a 10-8 round. Personally I think judges should be sequestered in a sound proof room, and watch the fights on a series of large monitors with no audio.

Boo

 

Sorry corruption like how--I'm dumb.----I'm all for 10/10 because of the inconsistent interpretations of how different judges read a round.:smoke

 

To award the 10/10 on a close round is so much fairer----when you look at a sequence of punches thrown at correct camera speed & then see that same sequence in slowmo, ''at times'' its amazing the difference of what you thought was clean and what actually connected--especially in the lower weights..:smoke

 

Because a fighter that SHOULD lose a round, might be awarded a 10-10 round due to being the hometown fighter. Whereas in the current model the judges would have to award the one fighter the round. If the fighter that earned the round gets it, fair enough, but if it goes to hometown fighter then it's gonna look blatantly corrupt. Not that that's ever stopped anything.:-(

With the 10-10 version, then it won't look as bad, but it could still do every bit as much damage.

 

yes but remember this ***** in the brawl in mtl judge: Angelo Poletti 148-147 10 rounds even **** off

 

I agree bro I think the score system would be alot better with more 10-8 rounds simply because one boxer like you said mijares can completely dominate a round but because he has solid but not above average power does not knock the other guy down. IMO I would totally give someone the 10-8 if they outworked and outboxed his opponent.

 

Thanks I get the picture----MAN what a conniving devious lot we are!!!:smoke

 

I use 10-10 on my home cards, but its very rare that I do, and I think official judges should follow that lead. Usually in a round that is leaning towards too close to call, I go with either the guy who landed the harder shot(s) OR if they landed similar punches, then I go with the guy who pressed more. If I cant give the round to a guy still, then I go 10-10 and move on.

 

I think even rounds are cop outs. it's rare that after watching a round, I'm like "I really don't know who won that round/did the most damage/came away better." I see scorecards on here where people throw out 2, 3, 4, 5?!? 10-10 rounds and I'm like you must've fallen asleep or something.
