ten round fight - so a shutout would be 100-90. But Veyre had 2 points deducted. Yet one judge scored her 99-88 - how does that work?

They each had 2 points deducted. "Persoon, 41, lost a point for punching to the back of the head in round four. Veyre would lose a point in round five for holding. Persoon suffered another deduction in the seventh round for punching to the back of the head. It was Veyre’s turn for her second infraction, for holding in round nine."

The judge must have had an even round in there somewhere.
