    In Cuba boxers and high level athletes in general are supervised all the time.if they talk about to became pro they will never box again..I know you can't picture this in your mind but it's like that...also Cuban boxers go thru a long process which takr many years and they are chosen like at the age of 7-8 they exercise a lot and train all day and night..they don't stud y so..don't look for smart answer of something specific...man..I will like you to watch a documental in you tube about cuban school of boxing and how everything work in there..it hava English subtitles..is call Cuban Punch Up the boys who found for Castro..please watch it and tell me what are you throughs on that..I m very interested in your opinion...this kids have no live..they only train..Rigo, Gamboa, Lara everyone of them fo thru the same.

    Another coup counted by Aragón:

    http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=309309&cat=boxer

    Vilmos Balog represented Hungary at the 2004 Olympics, qualifying by defeating Viktor Poliakov, a very good Ukrainian boxer who has since turned pro and gone 11-0 (6) with a couple of decent wins. Balog himself debuted in '05 and has since racked up a 30-0 (16) record, although it's fairly padded other than one fellow unbeaten prospect against whom he acquired a vacant bauble.

    Balog got completely wiped out by Aragón in 2003. :cool:

    real scoring does not make a round 10/8 automatically. not supposed to be some dumbasss judges do give 10/8 an it doesnt matter who won the round itself without the kd. way too many flaws in scoring for boxing.

    i'm probably in the minority but i think we are missing out on great fights and especially great 2nd half of fights ignoring open scoring. i think open scoring will make for greater fights and much great fight ending.

    if i know i am down after 8 i can legitimately try for the ko win instead of accepting a points defeat. if you know you need to win out the remaiming rounds i want a heads, especially if you and everyone else thinks you're winning

    Look at Alvarez vs. Trout.

    They found out Alvarez had it almost wrapped up after 8 rounds.

    Alvarez chilled. Trout didn't have it in his toolbox to do anything else, so he kinda chilled too...

    I don't like open scoring. In theory it can be alright but my guess is in practice it would lead to more boredom than anything.

    ...but I did have it the same, more or less, as the official result: close but clear for Mayweather. (under the existing rule set)

    The only difference between mine and the official scoring is they only counted about half the punches I did - but they were even-handed about it, not unduly biased either way.

    I've seen the Artayev fight on youtube somewhere but i think you need to type his name in Russian to get results.

    Closer fight than the score indicated imo but Artayev did seem to edge it for me.
