Should Split Decisions In Title and #1 Contender Fights = Auto Rematch?

[phys_therapy]

What about changing rules to reduce the likelihood of a split-decision?

 

[johncola]

No. It'd be too rigid to set a hardline rule to insta-rematch every split dec in #1 contender or title fight. It should obviously be determined on a case-by-case basis. That's how it's done now and it's the way it should be

 

[BJ@LW&WW]

no. it should be auto reevaluation of judges.

 

[TheBrownGosling]

They should do more draws and sudden victory rounds

Well we all know a different scoring system would be great, if someone could figure one out that works and all

"I don't know how it can be better than it is, but I hate it anyway and will bash it whenever I can!"

No. There should be more space in between the fights, so the fighters have more of a chance to grow and improve. That way a rematch will hopefully be more decisive. If you just have a another fight right away 3 months later, it's basically the same fight again and there's a greater chance it will end the same way as the first.

YES!!! Bring back GSP, drag him out of his house and make him rematch Hendricks

Fuck

Did we ever miss that opportunity, todays Hendricks is the poor man's Hendricks, GSP beats him for a joke.

no. it should be auto reevaluation of judges.

not a bad idea
They must give a consensus or the 3 will be forced to watch Rosholt's fights
I'm sure the SD would end magically
