A challenger should never have to do more

Don't state it as a fact then if it's just a number that you pulled out of your arse.

 

i think the close rounds should be scored 10-10 and let the decision got to the fighter who wins the championship rounds

 

You don't win by the sum of all rounds combined(landingwise), but by round by round.

This isn't amateur boxing.

 

There's a lot of validity to this point. All of these cries of robbery come from situations where people feel obliged to give a round one way or the other in rounds where neither fighter has done anything except hold, whinge and miss with a few punches.

10-10 should be the default score for a round until one of the fighters demonstrates clearly that they deserve to win that round. If neither do, forget about it and move onto the next.

 

precisely..

 

:-(

 

There's really not enough even rounds given out, and I can't argue with it. If I'm giving someone a round where neither fighter did much work i'll usually give it to the man defending his crown.

 

I cant believe more people have voted yes than no.

Whoever wins should get the verdict, no matter how close, if its a draw then the champ stays the champ so he already has that minor advantage.

 

you obviously missed the point of my post, i stated that for the challenger to win they have to do more. well that's because they TECHNICALLY do have to do more. because if they don't do more then their opponent then they have either drawn or lost. that is how boxing works. for anyone to win by decision they have to do more than their foe.

that is all i was saying. i was just pointing out that your thread and the question herein is flawed. now if you were to ask whether a challenger having clearly outscored the champion should have to do more to win, than no would be the answer.
so next time before you get pissy with a valid point explaining the flaw in your question reread what's written and understand it, before incorrectly retorting that i am posting 'BS'.

good day mother****er.

 

Whoever gets more points should win. Title status should not enter the equation.

 

you always have to do more than your opponent to win. In at least 7 out of 5 rounds. The champion's only advantage is that if he fight is a draw he remains champion.

 

The fighters should be treated and scored equally when the first bell has rung, in the event of a draw the champ gets to keep his title. That should be his only advantage.

In the "real world" however winning a title in the other guys backyard while fighting defensively is pretty hard to do.
