In wresting and judo, takedown are what they are trying to do. MMA is a mix of wrestling, striking and grappling, so as light hits counts, takedowns also should be counted regardless of wheather they get up immedietaly or they keep lying. Takedown is not just a transition. It is when guy takes and throws opponent down. point to the guy on top is called control. takedowns is only things from wrestling and they should be scored separately from grappling. BJJ guys shouldn't be scored anything for the attempts. Because if they succeed they get submission, but if they can't submit, they are failure.because a takedown is just a transition from standing to going to the ground... Do you score it a takedown when a bjj guy pulls guard for the purpose of it becoming better for him to be on the floor? or will you give points to the guy who is on top sitting in the guys guard just because "hes on top"? Its what you do with that takedown that should score points... are you landing from full guard? are you transitioning from full guard into half guard? or side control? are you attempting sub attempts? or GnP? Those things what should count... not the takedown itself....
Yes that would be harder to convince than what im talking about, but in a perfect world thats how i would score it, i think that is a lot more balanced system then the one we got currently.
