Whats with the new rules

[col Blake]

I don't agree with the rules re telling everbody the judges scores. It takes the suspence out of the fight. when your sitting at home screaming at the Telly for the judges to hurry up at the end of the fight, thinking is it going to be a robbery. Fighters should not know, if a fighter knows he is front by miles he can go in to cruise control and run for the last few rounds, spoiling the whole nights entertainment. CRAP IDEA

It seems to me that pro boxing is the only sport where not even the judges know the running scores. It is part of its being boxing. People should not mess with it.

I think it could also lead to a lot of 'no mas ' fights and corners throwing in the towel when their man is far behind .

I thought it was a good idea when I heard it but I've pretty much changed my mind. If open scoring still led to a 115-113 score last night then the openness doesn't change much. I guess we would have known Lennox might get robbed against Evander but it has little use most of the time.

I nthat fight it would have been good maybe then Holy and Lewis would have worked a little harder to prove they had won .
