Question on scoring a 10/8 and 10/10 round

Eh? Plenty of rounds (too many in some fights) get scored 10/10

 

Everybody scores as they wish,it's better if you don't score even rounds so you can pick a winner more clearly.In recent years the WBA for example has banned the even scoring of a round.

 

Watch Bowe- Golota.

A lot of them rounds be 10-8 rounds.....but some weren't mostly due to the fouls Golota was making and point deductions.


I do 10-10 rounds. I don't see why not. If I feel neither boxer edged it, ill even the round up in points.

 

I only score 10/8 for a round when a fighter gets knocked down or completely dominated... meaning he didn't do a single thing of note in the round.

I rarely ever score 10/10 and neither do most judges. People tend to think it reflects indecisiveness

 

I don't have a problem with scoring rounds 10-8 or 10-10.

If there is no way to split the fighters, then by all means award it 10-10. OK, you don't want silly scorecards like 118-117.....

There should be more 10-8 rounds. Collazo vs Hatton Rd.12 was a 10-8 in anybody's book.... just because there wasn't a knockdown doesn't mean that one guy wasn't owning the other.

Furthermore, with a KD, I don't see a problem with scoring 9-9, if the guy that gets decked is winning the round.

 

My question is... how would you score a round with 2 knockdowns? Officially it should be 10-7 right?.. but some judges leave it at 10-8..

Then we also have rare instances when a fighter gets knocked down 3 times in a round. Like Pac vs JMM I in round 1... would you score that round 10-6 for Pac?

 

Too many? I disagree totally. Not enough i would say.

 

I havn't seen many 10/10 rounds and i don't think there are enough.There are so many rounds that are hard to call.By scoring 10/10 rounds early in the fight then the decision would be left to the championship rounds which IMO makes most sense.

 

There you go!

 

Too many in SOME FIGHTS, not in general. Some judges have scored 5 or 6 rounds of a 12 round fight even, off the top of my head Leonard-Duran I was a case in point although there are others. If rounds are close, then fine, score a 10/10 but how many 12 round fights have 5 or 6 rounds that close?

 

Calzaghe vs BHOP this fight has a few 10-10 rounds.
