They need to do something about judging, over the years it has ruined, built career's, it harms boxing's reputation. Why? for world championship fight's after the fight is done crown the champion like normal, but also have a judging a day after via Video but 3 different judges. So you have a 6 Judge system, basically to double check and see if corruption is at play. Judges need to be dealt more seriously when they come up with these bull**** decisions, half the time they pick a fighter before the fight has even started. Im suprised nothing has been done by the sanctioning bodies, ok you can put in a protest, appeal but that goes nowhere.

I do agree with the fact that many of the judges are not judging the fight but instead the fighter's reputation. Which is not at all fair. It isn't just a recent thing though. There have been judges robbing boxers since the first bout. Just like in any sport they put the outccome of the game into the hands of a few people who they deemed are the best possible for the job. I think there needs to be a better job done by the sanctioing bodies in picking judges and reviewing their records on if their score was dramatically different from the others. But -
(Sorry got cut off) I think it is a little out there to completely change the system which has more or less worked for modern boxing. I think before we fix the judging we first need to go above that and work on our sanctioing bodies. That would greatly improving the sport including the judging.Comment
