Yeah, if I start making up results as I see fit or if we start having votes on what the correct result should have been, it WILL be a circus and people will stop taking part. I guess we just have to accept that there will be robberies and controversial decisions, including early stoppages and points taken off, etc. and live with that. However, when there is a strong feeling of opinion that a result was controversial, I think it's fair not to allocate twice the points for it, or apply the "clean sweep", because that might be doubly unfair to those who picked the fighter who was robbed. What do you think?

What were the official scorecard scores?

 

Thank you...that is a "wide UD" then.

Fortunately, according to huki's system of scoring, which we voted as the best and which is applied here, the difference between a close and a wide decision is only 5 points...so we might as well always always go by the scorecards, even in the Mijares case, unless the result is contested officially. What do you say?

 

Changing what?

I was saying we should always go by the scorecards, unless the result is officially contested by the fighter. One of the jugdes calles Mijares fight 115-113 which is "close UD"....this makes me feel better about calling the whole fight "close UD"...what do you say?

 

How about allocating twice the points for the Pavlik fight (it was considered a "blue-ribbon event"? Shall we still do it?

How about the clean sweep, in this case? Shall we still apply it even though the Pavlik win was controversial?
