Bouts are scored using the "10 point must system." Are there instances where a round is scored 9-9, 9-8, 9-7, etc.? I don't think so, but I'm not entirely sure....
Does anyone score even rounds? There are some schools of thought that say you strive to find a winner of every round even though a lot of times rounds are very close and appear even. On the other hand, I see Teddy Atlas score even rounds frequently during the FNF telecast. For me, I always try to find a winner and never score even rounds...

9-9, 9-8, 9-7 rounds are uncommon, but they do happen. Usually they're attributable to point deductions. The guy destined to win a round might have scored a knockdown, but then loses a point due to repeated warnings for low blows, hitting after the clinch, etc.
I score the occasional even round. I try not to, but I don't see a point in being too rigid. Sometimes there really are even rounds! I'd rather score even than flip a coin....

Yes, its when the guy wins the round but gets a point deducted, or when a fighters suffers a knockdown but he dominates the round so its a 9-9 round
9-8 9-7 are very rare as there must be Knockdowns/Point deductions. But most judges are ******ed and will screw it up if there are too many KD's and deductions, they will just do a automatic 10-7 run instead of making a 9-8 since sometimes when a round shouldve been 9-9 because guy who got the KD didnt do anything and got owned the rest of the round they will still give him the round 10-8 instead of a 9-9.
Teddy Gives 10-10 rounds when a fight he likes loses a round closely he will give it 10-10 not to take any points away from him.
10-10 should never be given unless its a VERY close round, but NEVER IN THE 11th/12th ROUND NO MATTER WHAT, if the round is so close that you cant split it go with who would you rather be and how are they doing compared to their opponent, its what you get paid for, to make a tough decision, dont go with a cop out.
I look for offense first. Usually, if you're outlanding the other guy, you're controlling enough of those factors. If two guys are really close in terms of clean punching, then I go more into the other factors like defense and ring generalship.
