"American Idol-style judging must be used to prevent boxing robberies!!!!!"
Specifically, the ***** suggests that public voting for who won a fight thru texting or calling should be used.

3 judges that we have.
3 random current active professional boxers.
Also, 2 judges and 1 boxer judging ringside.
1 judge and 2 boxers judging by way of televised method meaning they have access to all angles of the fight since HBO, Showtime, and ESPN are capable of having multiple cameras at all angles.
Then the match is decided this way. Any thoughts?
It'll be good to have active boxers judging the fight since they can represent the boxer's community a lot better in how they judge a fight.
Also, i think boxing needs to have a Boxing Judge Committee or something like that in which we as fans know who these judges are and how they score fights. Most of these fights we as fans feel the robbery and quickly blame a promoter but we should be remembering the names of these awful judges too.

Judges are so unreliable, I'm starting to think and computerized score in the Amateurs should be used. Except the person who lands the most punches wins the round instead of going towards a punch tally, extra point taken off if they are knocked down.
I know sometimes it's the fighter who lands the harder more crisp punches but less of them but I'd say it's more common that the fighter who lands more wins (with the exception of knock outs) There are obvious flaws like some fighters building up a lead early and just running the rest of the fight but we get that with some fighters now anyway. Human error is far too often the deciding factor in fights.

worst idea i ever heard. think ffs..
first of all different fighters have different sized fanbases that will vote on their favorite fighter regardless of what happens, some countrys are huge on boxing while in others its none existing. there would be extreme bias in the scoring.
how would clottey win a decision over pacquiao if we pretend that was a close fight? imagine rhodes getting a fair deal against alvarez had that been competetive with 36 million mexicans voting.
not to mention that even the fans that will try to score the fight fairly will most likely do a poor job, most fight fans are casual fans and dont even know the 4 criterias for scoring a fight.
sometimes we have biased or plain incompetent judges, to let random ppl have a say in scoring fights will just make sure there is ALWAYS biased and incompetent scoring.
i think if this happened (which it obviously never would considering how ******ed it is) it wouldy literally kill boxing. there would be so much incompetence and foul play in every single fight even the most faithful fans would give up.
worst idea ever.
