    I have to agree about the open scoring but it's jut an opinion. I can see a case being made for it too. I don't prefer it though.

    I do not care about interviews.

    I think judges should be liable to pay a jobbed fighter an amount commenserate with lost revenue do to biased or crooked scoring.

    Judges should be liable to criminal prosecution for fraud.

    Judges should be subject to life time bans from boxing at the first sign of hanky panky.

    Julie Lederman did a better job than this french guy. Now do the math on that one!

    There is an ongoing problem with the judges in nearly every fight and nothing is being done to change it.

    I'm not too surprised three people voted they didn't think it would really change anything. Maybe it wouldn't but I'd be very hopeful that it would.

    Man they should ALWAYS have the judges in the ring when championship cards are read. If a card is way off? Let the media jump right down their throats!

    More importantly judges need to be certified and licensed. If you turn in a reasonably suspect card? Whatever you are paid is put on hold if there is a "justified dispute". If it is found that your judging was horrible? You forfeit the purse to the fighter and your license is suspended. Do it enough? You lose your license FOREVER.

    Judging, like anything else, will always be crooked if there are more benefits in corruption than in playing it straight.

    Not at all, are you going to hold every other official in every other sport accountable too? home cooking goes on, it's a fact of life and is accepted.

    You're against holding officials accountable and it's acceptable to score fights with an extreme bias? That's interesting...:huh

    It's a subjective sport, every round is up to interpretation, no way you can hold judges accountable.

    I call BS. There is a difference in interpretation and robbery. When anyone with an eye sees a even fight and one judge has a guy pitching a shut out that is a REASONABLE reason to have the card reviewed.

    That last few fights Cotto/Clottey, Malignaggi/Diaz, Williams/Martinez etc... all fight fans could be OK with them going either way. It is always that one judges card that shows you that one guy never even had a chance.
