Ferocity vs efficiency: which is more important to judges?

[shadeyfizzle]

Here's the scenario: youre a judge ringside at an all action fight of the year frontrunner of a fight that's got the entire crowd on their feet.

Fighter A is a menace of a fighter. He pushes forward, cuts off the ring well, digs to the body, not that accurate but throws more and definitely the harder puncher. Even partially blocled shots seem to have an effect.

Fighter B is the blue chipper. Gets driven back but works his way out of trouble with relative ease. Fires laser jabs that stops fighter a in his tracks. His combos never seem to miss and it shows on fighter a's face.

Who do u give the close rounds to?

whoever does the most damage.

Depends on how obvious the efficiency is.

Judges are viewers too, except they don't have the luxury of compubox.

Most of the time it's who ever is doing the more obvious damage that wins the fight on the cards.

5 or 6 crisp clean punches usually don't win the round over 15-20 half-landed yet aggressive punches.

whoever's punches hurt more wins the rd
a guy can be accurate and land half of 60 punches
if his opponent lands 10 that hurt more, he'll get the rd
it's about damage most of the time

We're talking about CLOSE rds. 5-6 flush compared to 15 hard but blocked would make it easy on a judge. So assuming there was back and forth action but neither was able to establish themself as clearly as they would like.

Pain is subjective and only obvious to the person getting punched. I go off of who is landing the better punches and the cleaner punches. A bunch of punches that are mostly blocked and does nothing but annoy and opponent actually makes the defender look bettter in my eyes. It shows that the guy defending is just a better overall fighter. That's why that Chavez decision was a robbery in my eyes. But hey it's the WBC they give belts to Mexicans.
