Open scoring for DLH vs. PBF ( WBC right ?)

[RAESAAD II]

What if the WBC decides to utilize the open scoring method for this giant clash between Oscar and Floyd? To my knowledge it is the WBC, afterall, the has implemented this in the past, and Oscar and Floyd are both WBC champions.

I hope not....open scoring sucks.

Forget the open scoring, just have Laurence Cole referee the fight.

Open scoring is good but, takes a little of the suspense out of the fight. Knowing that a fighter is down on points in a competitive fight may prompt the winning fighter to run for the rest of the fight.

2)Or, in the 8th round, the annoucer says that Mayweather is leading 7 rounds to 1, De La Hoya knows he needs a knock out to win, he puts a lot more pressure after that.

That wouldn't be good at all. If Floyd is winning 7 rounds to 1 that means he has completely dominated Oscar and can handle whatever he has to offer. Nothing Oscar could do after that would change it, and he would look foolish chasing Floyd around the ring to no avail.

am i missing something here. i thought open scoring was implemented to keep scoring by the judges more legit. reason being if they had to show there round by round scoring starting i think in the forth that they wouldnt try to cook the cards and no more wide swings in scoring.
am i wrong

We're likely to see a mix of styles in this fight with Floyd better on the back foot and De La Hoya doing more damage. The opinions of the judges in which is more important could well be a factor. Open scoring makes it less of a factor.

I'm pretty sure the Nevada Commission doesn't like the idea, and I think they have say in the matter. There have been plenty of title fights in Vegas since the WBC started this open scoring "campaign," and none there have been involved, I don't think.
