He writes a good article on something every boxing fan should know, but then blows it in his example.

Yes, De la Pollo was catching a lot of the early jabs from Quartey on his gloves, but defense does not could as much as offense, and even with the blocked punches, the consistency of Quartey's offnce kept De la Pollo defensive and unable to launch his own offense, therefore it is both effective aggression by keeping his opponent from being able to fight back AND ring generalship by keeping the fight on his terms.

A good example of this is Kasim Ouma. His punches couldn't knock over my dead grandmother, but he throws so fluidly and consistently, and at such a high rate, it makes it near impossible for his opponents to launch their own offense. Regardless of the force or accuracy, he is forcing his opponent to fight his fight, therefore it is effective AND ring generalship.
Each, in and of itself, counts for more than pure defense in scoring.

But he says about judging in general.

I am still new to boxing and I usually dont judge a fight but could know if the fight was close or there is a clear winner.

I usally judge by the time of control of the round for example in Toney-Peter I though Toney won because he had good agression, defensie and ring generalship for about much othe 2:30 min of the round but he tend to give the last 30sec to Peters in most rounds with effective agrression.

I depends on how you look it at but he draw a clear line of the critera of judging
