Judges shouldn't score fights from ringside anymore

[The Gambler1981]

That's a good idea. I still like my idea if having 9 or 11 judges kinda like figure skating which would nullify the couple of ******s and blind judges.

I would say at least 5 and drop the high/low for each guy then add the scores together. 7 would work good though have 1 watch from each side of the ring and have 3 watching from tvs feed. Thus keeping the tradition of ringside scoring with bringing in the new technology.

People need to realize that the judges are not incompetent, they are corrupt!

You're gonna tell me a judge, who has gone thru training on how to score a fight and was approved for a license, picks the wrong guy in a pretty obvious 1 sided affair? Think about it, how can you score for the other guy when he clearly is getting beat, what can they possibly see? Vanes didn't land ****, how can you score for him?

THIS!!!

It's the honest truth, and at this point judges are just not caring, it's obvious that there is corruption going on.

They took out CJ ROSS, but there are plenty more.

They should actually be at ring level, not below it. A platform for them to sit in each corner would do wonders for their scoring.

Nah,I like the way fights have been being judge throughout the yrs..They just need to train the judges better tbh..This sport is subjective,I like that about it,leave the sport how it is..

Aaaahh... A Bradley fan I see...

What my whole point is that with this type of scoring, corruption will be a whole lot more obvious, e.g. punishment such as CJ Ross received will be made with much more haste

No more beating around the bush... No more blaming it on crowd reactions, the fight looking different from different sides of the ring, no more similar horseshit...

We already have to compete with the subjectivity of judges scoring activity over clean punching, aggression over defense, SUPERSTAR fighters getting the nod in close rounds... Now they should clean up all the other rough edges

muting it is ******...just take out the commentary track.

These blueprints I came up with aren't the be all end all... A silent TV, muting the TV, whatever

This is kinda of a contradiction... I mean, if camera being at the wrong angle at the wrong time effects how some punches look when they land/don't land than how will being in one static position going to help??

I'm pretty sure judges missed MOST of the work Lara put in against Vanes Martirosyan was stuff u can only see from the right camera angle, which is why that fight ended up a draw...

Camera's may not catch everything, but they catch more than someone possibly could sitting at a table on one side of the ring

Your wrong...cameras can create quite the illusion. It would be hard to understand unless you are standing there while things are being filmed. I'm sure you know that when you are watching a fight scene in film that it may look like someone is being punched in the face with a devastating blow when in reality the punch doesn't even come close to the actor's face and I'm sure you understand that. The same illusion sometimes inadvertently happens when they are broadcasting the fight. They also have the judges sitting on various sides of the ring so they see different angles. The system isn't perfect and as Russian Crushin said there is also corruption in the sport. But cameras lie...trust me i worked in the industry for 5 years.

I don't think I am, I just think you don't understand

Are you saying that a stationary position is superior to multiple camera views? I'm not saying the camera will catch everything, but multiple cameras will WITHOUT QUESTION catch more than a person sitting ringside

I've been to live fights... Some looked entirely one-sided in person, but far closer on TV... Others were the other way around

Different camera angles are an advantage for many reasons
