I'd be in favour of 10-10s if there were more 10-8s.
Another good point. Judges need to hand out a 10-8 when appropriate, but instead they tend to hand out 10-9 rounds even when one guy dominates the round. The problem is that one guy can beat the other guys ass for an entire round and be given a 10-9, and then the next round, he could lose that round just barely, and a 10-9 is given to the other guy. At this point in the fight, it's a round a piece and is considered an "even" fight, even though the one guy had a much more dominate round and is actually winning the fight.
But if they just gave the dominant fighter a 10-8 round, now you've got one guy who is ahead on the scorecards, rightfully so...and the fight isn't called "even."
