What Is The Official Way To Score A KD Round

[DLT]

I want to hear everyone's thoughts on this because no one ever really talks about it. One second you hear that if there is a knock down then its an automatic 10-8 round. The next time you will hear that if the guy who was knocked down still wins the round then it can still be scored 9-9. Some say that the only way the guy who was dropped can get an even round is to totally dominate the rest of the round. What are your thoughts?

I ask this because it makes me mad during a fight on HBO or whatever when I see a fighter get dropped and they say something like, "well he was doing good but now its going to be a 10-8 round so thats a big swing". Im like, if he was doing so good and you thought that he was winning the round then why do you definatly have to make it 10-8 for the other guy? Why not make it 9-9. There never seems to be anything clear about how guys score it.

Ive wanted to make this thread before but I always forget. I just thought about it again because of the Holt-Bradley fight. I didnt see the fight so I dont know if it has anything to do with the fight but I was wondering about the 1st round or the last round. Everyone had it 10-8 for Holt but did he win the round or did he just land that good punch and Bradley won the round? Would that have changed your score? To the people who think that it should be scored 9-9 if the KD guy won the normal part of the round, what if 1 guy is winning the round but the other guy lands a straight monster punch. Does how big the punch is itself change the scoring? Maybe if its a flash knock down then its still 9-9 but if its a bomb then its 10-8? What if its a bomb but someone recovers super fast like Bradley?

Thats another part that bothers me. Some networks even count it 10-8 even if it was a flash knock down but they think the other guy was winning the round. I dont get it. What are the official rules and how do you normaly score it? Please understand my question before you answer back

A KD rd is 10-8 for the fighter who dropped his man. It only becomes 10-9 if the dropped fighter does damage followin or preceedin the KD. If he's just winnin it but not inflictin any damage, he's still gonna lose the rd 10-8 if he gets dropped.

so you think inflicting damage would only be 10-9 and not 9-9?

Why the hell would it be 9-9? If both fighters score a KD in the same rd, it would be 10-10. There'd have to be a deduction of some kind to end up wit a 9-9 rd.

If someone wins the round, or it's fairly close and gets the KD scored in his favor, it's a 10-8 round, atleast.

But, if one fighter is winning virtually every other portion of the round, but happens to drop and gets back up and is Okay, an even round is in order.

dude, I wasnt asking you in a smart way. I really wanted to know if thats what you thought. Most people I know score it 9-9 because of the fact that you just said the other guy clearly lost the round and got damaged inflicted on him so he has to lose some point. If it was a normal round then he wouldve lost it 10-9, right? But this time he ties 9-9 because he still got that knock down on his opponent

So you would score it 9-9 in that 2nd paragraph, right? Mangler is saying that he would score it still 10-9 but I think most would score it 9-9

If it's a draw, with no KD, it's 10-10. If it's that both lost a point (one for the round, one for being KD'd) then, 9-9 is the way to go.

[-Hyperion-]

a 9-9 is immpossible under the 10 point must rule......only way to ahve a 9-9 is if theres a point deduction because of fouls......
