No its not.
9-9 is supposed to be thr score.
Look at it this way. A KD means you lose a point right.
So if you're saying Ryan won the round, then the score would normally be 10-9.
Put he was KD, so subtract a point from Ryan, which means instead of 10 points he has to have 9 points because of the point subracted.
Therefore the score is 9-9.
But if that is the case, then Keith Thurman should have had the 1st round against Manny Pacquiao also scored 9-9 because Keith Thurman clearly, and I mean clearly won that round if you don't count the KD. Then it shouldn't have been 10-8 for Manny but 9-9.
I did hear though that judges are no longer allowed to score rounds as a draw. They have to give it to one or the other.
I don't know if that only applies to normal rounds or if it applies to rounds with a KD too or not.Comment

I think the cards are bullsheet but I think Garcia is going to get a lot of cards like that.
For one, he's the A-Side based on his commercial value. And for two, he throws fast and flashy and applies a lot of pressure - I'm not sure how a ringside judge is going to see if the punches are landing or hitting gloves.
In the early rounds he was hitting gloves while Campbell was landing scoring shots - including plenty to the body.
None of that matters though tonight. He put his opponent away.Comment

I watched that fight and all I can is this kid is a knockout waiting to happen....he leaves his head hanging in the air whenever he attacks and is wide open.
Tank Davis and Haney will starch this kid.
I don’t rate himComment

I think in all fairness a knockdown should overrule. I also don’t like 10-10 rounds. I would say the exception is one fighter is dominating the other, really hurt, but is surviving and luckily drops the other. I wouldn’t have any complaints for a 9-9 in that situation. I mean the dominance has to be like 90/10. But in Garcia to Campbell in Round 2 was 60/40. So 10-8 is the correct thing to do... common sense for most of our scoring standardsComment
