    This was the first round and it was very close. I then won the second and him the third. the judges said I lost this round but IDK. Im the guy in the blue shorts
    Dont listen with sound and know that when the ref callls for a time it's because i accidently spit out my mouthpiece.

    Oh man...too hard to tell. Personally. I would hate to have to score fights like this, cuz it's so fast and furious. Plus the video never does a fight justice cuz you can never see how solidly the punches are landing. In the first 20 seconds of the round it appears your opponent was landing more cleanly amidst the flurry. Plus you appeared more tired - dunno if that was the case, but he looked more fresh when the ref separated you. It should not have any bearing on the scoring, but unfortunately, it subconsciously gives judges the impression that he is stronger.
    That round looked razor thin to me and impressions, whether right or wrong can make or break a fight. But like I said, too hard to tell from the video. It could have gone either way.

    :good Thanks for the input i agree that the first 20 seconds he got me real good. When you say i looked tired at the break are you talking about when i lost balance and went into the corner.

    You didnt look tired to me, amateur boxing scoring is ridiculous they just give it to the more active guy in local shows, u both threw a ton of punches all round but i still feel that beginning part cost u

    yeah I was really shocked at the beginning because he was taller and a southpaw so my coach was telling me I needed to press the fight I had no idea he was going to throw like that at the beginning. I expected him to use his reach and stay on the outside. I guess now I know and I want a rematch :bbb

    i thought the guy in the puerto rican flag trunks won that round, but i wouldn't dwell on it, because u are obviously a beginner, and you have a ton of heart for trading punches like that. Keep working and i am sure u will do great!

    guy in white, I think he was more active. I would not claim he scored more, but he got you in the cornet more often. Being in the corner in amateur boxing is bad, because most of judges do not see you well. But this is your fault. So, again, guy in white had a slight advantage

    I have no idea who won that round - very difficult to score.

    Must say, you defo have plenty of heart though. Well done.

    Not sure how they score bout over in your country but in most amateur bouts, the winner is decided by counting the number of clean blows landed on the target area, with force and delivered with the knuckle part of the glove.

    This means you can loose 2 rounds and still win the fight provided you land more total punches in total over the course of the bout.

    Are you aware of this? I wasn't aware of this till my forth bout when I lost a majority - I couldn't understand how one of the judges could have me winning when I knew I had the lost the first 2 round badly.
