- Yes it got improved with 10-8 and 10-7
- Yes we got better criteria now
BUT
It's still a system made for 6 - 15 rounds in boxing
That just doesn't work with 3-5 rounds.
Amateur boxing with 3 rounds doesn't have that system either.
Strickland vs DDP showed this.
Example:
Fighter A lands 20 more punches in round 1, but not enough for 10-8
Fighter B lands 1 more punch in round 2 and 3 and he wins.
Or even if fighter B lands 3 punches less in 2nd and 3rd, he still could get the win via judges.
