My proposal to circumvent controversial decisions (maybe)...

I dunno. It's bad enough that Joe Cortez goes on and on about his decisions, trying to make everybody happy. Making judges too accountable to the general public would result in even more blatant hometown decisions - hard line to draw there without going over the edge, but I guess one needs to be drawn regardless.

 

i agree with you there
a board of commessioners should be installed to evaluate the judges doing their job, that would be realy effective
but it would be damn hard to put together, especialy with money to finance something like that

 

He'd destroy his keyboard with ineffective aggression and clean punching.

 

:yep for sure

 

George Foreman- The computer is going to be the most important piece of equipment at the ringside area...other than the two fighters.

 

They should have 3 guys watching on 3 different TVs in 3 different rooms. IMO. And add a 13th round

 

Co-signed :good

 

I just realized that Larry Merchant's the most likely of the HBO crew to be good with a system like that: typing blindly for extended periods (he started out in journalism as a Morse code operator, after all) and being either absolutely disgusted or madly in love with each round on an individual basis. How bizarre.

 

I actually think Merchant would be the worst in all honesty.

You know once a fight gets boring, he's gonna start lookin up porn.

 

Yeah... I'm liking your ideas more and more as they bounce around in this empty head of mine. :think It'd have general accountability for judges throughout their careers instead of only happening when Don King threatens to sue.

 

One thing that computer-logged scoring would prevent is the ridiculously embarrasing and amateurish "it's a draw"... 10 minutes later... "oh, we added the cards up wrong... it's a majority decision". That's some of the sorriest **** in all of sport.

I like the general idea of it.

 

What happened if the computers have windows and they crash mid fight?

 

I like the idea.
