MMA needs to change fight scoring...

[Steel Mamba]

The Fertitas have mafia connections as well, so it really wouldn't be too surprising if something shady was going on. Not saying that fights are rigged, but they're a bit more buddy buddy than they put on.

Back to the scoring, 10-10 rounds definitely isn't the answer. In a 3 round fight you know how many draws that would create. It's lame enough that a fight is decided by three rounds, knocking it down to 2 would be even worse. More rounds is an absolute must.

10-10's would result in fairer decisions. As it stands, these judges are giving out 10-9's, even in rounds when nobody does anything. There are so many fights where a guy "wins" two rounds that should be 10-10, then loses the third conclusively, but "wins" the fight based on the two even rounds.

People shoudnt fear the draw, it would still be very infrequent, the 10-8's and 10-7's would take care of that. 10-9 for every round is what's killing scoring.

And you guys with these conspiracy theories are nuts.

What does the purchase have to do with anything today?

 

[Steel Mamba]

Some of u guys must think that this is a perfect world, with perfect people that we live in.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

SO let me get this straight...you guys think that the people in charge of the UFC, are somehow in bed with the athletic commissions, so therefore the UFC is resposible for and is ok with the shitty judging?

Ok.

The biggest problem for the UFC right now, is the bad judging. Dana complains about it all the time, and distances himself from the process, constantly reminding people that they have no control of the judges or refs.

I know, I know. Thats all part of the plan.

Again, you guys are nuts. They have nothing to gain from bad judging in a fight 7th from the top. Get real.

Zuffa is run by shady people, 2nd, dana is a mouth piece, he its there pr guy

lorenzo was the former commissioner of the nsac, they are all buddies, even froze out big john from reffing because he went against zuffa

mob ties, bankrupt casinos, the ufc purchase, hiring fired buddies from the commissions, etc...

Zuffa is a low life bunch

 

[Liquidrob]

Also, I live reading your anti bcs posts which I agree with than reading these, to funny

Nothing you are saying here is incorrect (except maybe the "Dana is just a mouthpiece" stuff, but that;s for another day), but I don't know how any of this gets mixed in with a judging thread.

If anything, the judging would be better if UFC had any real stroke with the commissions. The bad judging is bad for business.

lol @ thinking Dana is nothing but a PR dude.

The only extent the UFC has influences with AC's is that AC's make more money from taxing their shows then they do with any other venture outside of a major boxing event.

To say Uncle Dana and Lorenzo hand pick winners, refs, judges...:vogel:

 

[Liquidrob]

They point is they are all in bed with each other, they are all friends, shit won't change with these guys in charge, it just won't, just like boxing

Zuffa is a much to blame as the AC's for the incompetence of the judging and the reffing

Zuffa can't do a damn thing to change judging/reffing. That's the point.

It's all about the commissions. And they're too cheap and stuck in their ways to do anything drastic.

Man empire, you're dense

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

rob successfully trolls Empire in yet another thread, destroying it in the process.

Anyway, welcome to 2005, larry. Like others have already mentioned, and I have been preaching since like 2001, more 10-10 and 10-8 scoring, and even 10-7.

10-10 : even round, impossible to call (judges fear this now)

10-9 : slight edge to one fighter (same as now)

10-8 : clear winner of a round (this currently gets a 10-9)

10-7 : severly one sided, nearly finished (what currently constitutes 10-8)

Judges are pressured to award rounds and not give 10-10's, thats a joke, because a judge can give two razor sharp rounds to one fighter, then the other fighter dominates round three and loses 29-28, when he should have won 30-29.

Fuck you.

I was already aware, as it has been discussed with you mopes over and over again...but I felt, after last night, the topic needed to be revisited...much like the brand of newspaper you need to get that great fan action at the Bingo Hall. What was it again?

Fuck face.

I would prefer they lose, so we can get rid of Del Rio / Smith / Garrard then wild card chase for the years upon years.
