To avoid unnecessary and unpopular decisions do you think having fans call in or score rounds online like they do on FNF would be the answer to all the bad scoring in boxing? I think they should test this out. Most boxing fans are smart enough to score a fight. There is corruption in everything but with more people scoring there would be more chances of fairness instead of having 3 judges who can easily be persuaded for either side
@deeznuts
This thread is a fail. It's a non-issue. Take into account Mexicans hold the majority of boxing fanbase, SO, if all the Mexican call and vote for the Mexican fighter, we would be right back where we started .....
I do agree with your thinking though. Bad decisions hurt the sport.
I agree something needs to be done. My suggestions are: I side with Ref Joe Cortez(even though he was a shitty Ref) that the judges need a higher vantage point instead of having to look through the ropes. I also think championship fights should have 5 judges instead of 3. Hell, i'd be fine with every fight having 5 judges.
So, if we had 5 judges per fight, with the judges sitting up higher ... possibly even hanging from ceiling perches, we would finally have ideal conditions to prevent robberies.
I agree though some thing needs to change, bad decisions are hurting the sport.

I've got a better idea, let's bring back Eugenia Williams to score solo for every fight!
Sorry,but if this site is anything to go by, that would be a terrible, terrible idea.
wait why wouldn't ward get a decision? don't lump him with broner/floyd.
i'm surprised he didn't include Alexander and Bhop aswell. Pretty sure he intended to
Hell nawl! Mayweather, Broner and Ward couldnt win a decision anywhere in western civilization. It would be very bad because it would breed even more corruption right in peoples living room. Atlas had it with gov't intervention. They need someone to answer to.

I had a great idea like this once. It was a "jump to conclusions" mat. You see, it would be this mat that you would put on the floor... and would have different CONCLUSIONS written on it that you could JUMP TO.
Open score cards to the fighters and the people up to the 10th round. and leave 11 and 12 out for some suspense and drama. thats the best attainable solution..
So fans can pick there favorite fighter?
Just imagine if they did this for a Floyd fight and all his haters scored against him he'd be 0-43 with negative 26 ko's lol
Oscar dela Hoya would be unbeaten
They should just let the ref have a score card hes closest to the action and knows what really lands and who's really being hurt.
They should also isolate judges from the crowd in a room some place where all they see is the fight no audio even.

I dont think "unsurprising" is a word either. Google it and get back to me. Preferably tomorrow. Who cares that mch about red k's. Id actually like to whip your ass if you'd give me the chance. LOL. Seriously.
because I said I didn't understand your poor grammatical skills you want to physically assault me? Whats wrong you?
One of the most ignorant and probably racist post on here yet you right-wing loon
Red k
B*tch do you know how many whites and Mexicans have public assisstance? Stop watchin that FOX news. You just dont know sh#t about sh*t. You show me everyday. And damnit "women" is plural. Woman is singular. Remember an ole' country ***** taught you that dummy.
Not sure what you're saying, but I find your inability to put a coherent sentence together unsurprising. I have sent you negative Karma in the hopes that next time you actually put a little effort in your grammar. If you're being ironic and putting on your best impression of an Obama phone recipient than I apologize for the misunderstanding.
after doing some research it's evidently a program that taxes phone bills to provide subsidized or free cell phone and landline use for people with low income. it's intended to be for 911 use.
and evidently it wasn't created directly by obama, but was brought about in 2008.Oh ok so Maniac was trying to say only low income people are Floyd fans??really??thats just ignorant and pathetic
