IMO, this is a GREAT move. Hope it becomes the norm so that KD's will stopped being ruled slips so often.

When will they use the instant replay, in between rounds? So if there's a KD called a slip and the round is not scored as a 10-8 will they go back and correct the score?

When I read the title I thought they were talking about them replaying the fight. Atlas been begging for this for a while so let's see how it works out.

I was thinking the same thing. I thought they were going to play it as soon as it was over or something.

lol cool now guys falling won't be counted knockdowns and maybe they will count more legit knockdowns

This will hopefully help with a lot of discrepencies I'm thinking they will use it between rounds to determine something such as if a head butt caused a cut or if it was a punch etc

[Russian Crushin]

The only thing it should be used on is whether fouls happen due to punches or headbutts and other fouls. Thing with using instant replay on KDs is they are very subjective a lot of the time and not clear cut

I would think the replays would be done by officials anytime in the fight so it would not interfere with the action

from what I know WBC's been using compturized scoring & reply for almost a year, quite successfully...Daniek Estrada's bout last year vs a Japanese guy , they went to relpy after a foul was changed 2 a punch & points adjusted @ ringside by the supervisor after the judges had turned in the cards....from the wat televisa describesd it, worked very well...
