How Do You Score a Boxing Round?

[eco1]

the only way I do it is:

Whomever lands more has 10-9
a Knock down gets you 10-8

That is it.

I score by who scores more and better punches. I don't actually try to count the number of punches each fighter lands. I just get a feel for who is getting the best of it and keep track of who is ahead. You can't just go by the number of punches because one blaster punch would cancel out many light taps. I don't think anybody writes notes during the round. I know I never do. I just watch the round very closely every second and keep a running score of who is ahead. I write my score down at the end of the round and maybe some comments like close round or clear round or big round. It's very possible that the winner of the round could land much fewer punches if his punches were much harder and landed cleaner.

I pick the fighter i want to win, then watch the round looking for a way to score it for him.

Lol at judges taking notes during a round. It's common sense that if you take your eyes off the bout you might miss something rendering your score inaccurate. Also, you must take into account jabs. Winky Wright beat Trinidad on nothing but jabs

I followed Judge Weisfeld's tutorial:

I've only just started to score boxing fights because I get bored in 12 round fights and thought it would be fun. So, my questions are:

1. As I'm watching the fight do I count every single punch (including jabs) or only clean punches?

2. I noticed the judges in fights looking straight ahead at a round and not making notes. Does this mean they just make a mental note on who lands better punches, dominates and better defense and then just give an overall score?

Many Thanks

Not me. I do 10-10 rounds, if I can't determine a clear Winner, also 10-8 without a knockdown, if there is clear dominance. Also, occasionally, 10-9 WITH a knockdown, if the guy who scored the knockdown, didn't OTHERWISE Win the round. Of course these are less common, but I have Checked and these scores are all allowed and legal.

I like to have the flexibility to score objectively, based on what I see during A Fight. I usually don't have more than 2 or 3 rounds even (10-10), though, during A 10 Or 12 Round Fight.

Of course jabs count. I usually go by number of punches LANDED (not thrown).

You score the fight if it's not floyd fighting in the ring but if it's floyd and in vegas you don't need to score the fight it will automatically be given to floyd by the judges as long as floyd is not ko.

I end up doing it like this:
Round starts, Fighter A lands a shot, i put him slightly up, Fighter B lands a similar shot back, fight is back to even, fighter A lands a 4 piece combo, he pulls ahead, fighter A lands more punches etc. Round is coming to a close and fighter B pulls off a nice combo but overall not enough to win him the round.

A------------xxxxx|--------------B

sort of have a tally in my head like the above bar and it moves as the round goes on, I probably sound autistic after this explanation but it results in a fair scoring round in my opinion
