Why do we give referees so much power.

I'd argue we should give them more and let them score the fight. Their in the ring and up closer to the action than anyone.

Judges cant get stuff right half the time anyway.

In England sometimes the referee is the only one who scores the fight and there are no judges scoring.

Referee privilege, they should redistribute some of that power to the guys fighting on the night and let them make up the rules

Like in the Tyson Fury vs John Mcdermott fight that the judge gave to Fury, despite everyone else seeing he lost

It could be a lot better, but making one man the judge is a terrible idea. Especially when you try and have a guy doing another job trying to multi task and judge a fight. Having the crowd judge a fight would be more accurate. (not that it's a good idea either)
