Im going to the foght so will PM you my score card upon my return. It looks like a decent card, shame Tony Conquest had to pull out. I was really looking forward to that fight.

I've started a thread here, it'd be interesting to look at how different ways of accumalating scores might affect the overall outcome.
I simply don't think 3 judges and 10-10, 10-9 and 10-8 offers a capable system of scoring.
There seems a dispariety between scores and percieved outcome, I've scored a fight a draw before but thought that someone has won it, does that make sense?

no thats not strange as a fighter can win a round clearly although teh other fighters might sneak a round
