Learn how to score fights before claiming one fighter or the other won

i re-watched the fight 3 times and i scored it the same way, 8 - 4 chino. you scored the fight that way 2 weeks before it happened. besides we know your scoring system: Floyd fight- Floyd lost even though you boycotted and didn't watch. Manny fight-manny won.

Seriously people actually thought Canelo won against Lara....

I would say Maidana's aggression was pretty effective, if you ask me.

Maidana won the fight 7-5. you mad bro?

Says the red k'd troll. Not sure why you think anybody gives a **** about red k's but carry on. :smashfrea

Scored it a draw 3 times. I'm okay with the fact that floyd got the decision. It couldve gone either way but if im the judge id give it to floyd too. Hes the superstar the undefeated, you gotta do more than that(what maidana did) to win against him. On judges mind theyd probably be thinking maidana did really well compared to others that floyd fought, its just not enough to give him the win since its just superclose. Lastly, i think its maidana that did more damage. About the gloves thing, odh had it written in the contract, floyd did it during the last minute.

I judge mostly on looks. Each round I check between what the appearance of the fighters on my TV screen and a picture of them at the weight in that I have a knack for saving on my phone. The most disfigured fighter is losing. Unless I dislike the one "winning" on my books, than he is losing regardless of physical deterioration. Oh, if a flabby guy is beating the snot out of a toned, ripped and muscular specimen than none of his punches count. Just sayin doe. Learn to judge *****ez. So I'm pretty confident you had Alvarez beating Mayweather right?

Okay. I just went to your professional school of scoring fights, and I actually changed my decision Castillo over Floyd in the first fight. Initially I had Floyd. Thanks OP! You changed my life!

Im so tired of coming on this forum and seeing these **** for brains " I scored it this way" There has been some pretty bad decisions in boxing Mayweather vs. Maidana 1 was not one of them. Maidana was competitive and gave a good account for himself, but you have to be really blind or biased to pull a maidana win out of your ass I'm glad Mayweather gave him a rematch and it will be a clearer win than the first time All these butthurt part-time Maidana fans....If the fight was against anyone else they would have took the loss in stride :bottle: The gloves though:bottle: When ODLH chose the ring, gloves, and weight class he didn't cry, he went out and won....Maidana has to do the same Post a video in how to score a fight,shows us your expert scoring methods you troll or stfu Though a lot of them, except Oscar, still believe Oscar won, nobody was protesting about Floyd's use of pillow gloves which were picked by Golden Toy to slow down Floyd's hand speed. And Oscar still lost. .

At the beginning of a round, I keep a mental tally chart in my head, as the round progresses I am scoring for clean punches landed and effectiveness of those punches as a kind of pendulum or seesaw, going in one fighters direction or back the other way depending on the action. There is no perfect way to score a fight but this works for me, some rounds are difficult some not, the most difficult fights to score are when one fighter is not landing all that clean but is overwhelmingly ahead in terms of work rate, but the other fighter is landing cleaner more crisp shots, I think this type of fight creates the most arguments. I had Mayweather squeaking it 7-5.

Maidana had a good start but faded badly in the 2nd half of the fight. His overhand right kept on missing and he was getting picked off. Had it 8-4 for Mayweather.

I honestly gave Maidana 3 rounds

I had it 7-5 for floyd hope maidana kos him with his pillows.

seriously only something idiots that dont know how to score would do, you dont need to worry your tiny little head about such things, simply looking for punches and their effectiveness covers most of everything including that idiotic of counting defense (facepalm) for the most part you only need live by one rule, damage done(via punches, derp), only when the punches/ damage is equal do you look at other things, if you realy dont want to score the rd a draw Yeeeeesssssss, thank you. I can't even count how many times I've argued exactly this. Clean punches landed is by far the biggest criteria for scoring a round. Everything else should only come into play if the landed punches are close. Besides, defense and effective aggression tie back into who was landing more punches anyway. The only time I consider ring generalship is when the landed punches are basically even and I score the round for whoever was dictating the pace of the round. Like, if Rigo and Santa Cruz fight and both land 8 punches but Santa Cruz only threw 30, because he's fighting Rigo's fight. That round almost certainly goes to Rigondeaux.

I think you have to take Floyd's c0ck out of your mouth TS

Mayweather won 8-4 or 7-5. 9-3 Mayweather or 6-6 is probably justifiable, but extreme. I can't see how the fight gets scored for Maidana. As much as NSB hates on Mayweather, they still come to proper scorecards for his fights. They aren't for the first Maidana fight, though.

OP is 100% correct, most people dont know how to score a fight. the most common mistake is not counting defense and ring generalship, judging sheer aggression as opposed to effective aggression and not paying attention to whether punches are landing clean or not. hell, if they are even landing at all in some instances. all these mistakes benefit the brawler and not a pure boxer like floyd. add a bias against floyd and you have people claiming he lost fights he clearly won. floyd beat maidana by a comfortable margin, it was a competitive fight but there is no way anyone who knows how to score a fight would think maidana won. seriously only something idiots that dont know how to score would do, you dont need to worry your tiny little head about such things, simply looking for punches and their effectiveness covers most of everything including that idiotic of counting defense (facepalm) for the most part you only need live by one rule, damage done(via punches, derp), only when the punches/ damage is equal do you look at other things, if you realy dont want to score the rd a draw
