    A hell of a lot of American big fight cards get published and I never, ever, EVER see a 10-10.

    I agree with Mike - but must say that Lederman is a joke.

    American judges always seem to 'take a flyer' on close rounds - hence why you see some odd split decisions and drawn fights, such as 117-111, 114-114 & 111-117!

    Yeah - more liberal use of 10-10 scores would bring score cards more in line with what the fight actually looked like!

    On the flip side I suppose, it would open the doors for more draws! For example, I use 10-10s quite liberally and scored Pac v JMM even.

    The first fight I had it a draw - quite how a judge had Marquez winning is beyond me really.

    The second fight I also had a draw - if JMM would have been able to stay on his feet he would have got the verdict from me.

    There has to be Pacman vs JMM III!
