Open scoring sucks. No doubt about it. Just makes one fighter run Away while the other is chasing him .

Really want "open scoring"?
Announce the scoring after each round -- for all the three judges...
At least make it actually "open"...

This like the NBA without a shot clock, all passing and no scoring once a team gets a lead.
