    I'm not huge on defense tho, i think people give too much credit for blocking/avoiding a punch
    That explains a lot.

      That's were there will be differences of opinion, and individual judgement takes effect. That's why you have fights where the judges' scores diverge.

        You say that joking, but it's apparent there are people who see it that way. lol

          Depends. If both dudes are trading punches at a fair rate, then I look at who is landing the most punches first. If one guy is landing more than his opponent but his punches aren't doing anything and he is showing damage from his opponent, I'll favor the guy landing the harder punches.

          I also factor in the degree to which one person is forcing the other fighter out of their style and dictating the pace, distance, etc. (ring generalship)

          If one guy is just trying to steal rounds in the final minute, I'll give him a round or two on that alone but after a few, I'm going to give it to the guy who is doing the most work in the round as a whole.

          I score defensive strategy as well but too often, the guy with the good defense has zero offense. Those types of fights come down to a judgement call, one guy threw 500 punches and landed 30 while his opponent blocked 470 and threw 30 of his own. I usually favor the guy who hurts the opponent (if that happens) or the guy who lands the most punches because that is usually all you have to go by in a "muddled fight".

          I'll favor a smaller fighter who is landing more and outboxing the bigger fighter almost all the time even if he is getting moved around by the bigger boxer because the bigger, stronger guy should be able to break the smaller guy down with less effort.

          It all depends on the type of fight because there are a lot of factors at play with every fight. I look at size, age, KO capability, style, who is being pushed as the star, all kinds of things when I consider who is doing better IMO.

            It would never be implemented. Everybody knows promoters have the last say in a fight that went to a full decision, the odds of somebody knocking out his hypejob plus the crowd/fan picking the right decision will be far too great for what a slimy promoter is expecting.

              Explains alot what? Barth danced around catching punches all night long while doing little. If you score rounds for guys who get beat up all round while throwing a few punches, maybe you should change you're scoring method. If this only happens when you score cuban fighters, then stop being a nationalistic nut hugger

                effective punching.

                that's the end toward which you endeavor. you want to effect your opponent. you want to damage him.

                defense, ring generalship, aggression, are all a means toward that same end. you want to effect your opponent with your punches more than he effects you. do more damage.

                if the give and take of damage is equal you can look to other aspects of the fight. namely ring generalship, aggression, and defense.

                when the give and take of damage is equal i will generally score a round even. i rarely score live fights. sometimes i'll score an undercard to make it interesting.

                    It explains exactly what you just said. You're the kind of guy that sees aggression, not effective aggression. Barthelemy wasn't as active, but he generally landed the cleaner, harder punches. Usmanee won, but most of his punches caught leather and elbows.

                    You're calling me a nationalistic nuthugger? Chill, boy.

                      Im the kinda guy the gives rounds to guys who win rounds. Barth took a good beating while landed a good punch here and there. You win fights on offense, not defense, which Barth didnt even have, thats the funny part. He was hit by almost 300 punches, 258 being powers shots to Barth's 189.

                      And yes i am, thats pretty clear, nothing to be ashamed of, just admit it to yourself and move on
