At the Taylor vs Ouma fight, the WBC introduced an open scoring system which informs the fighters at the 4th and 8th rounds of the Judges actual score cards. Do you think that this is a good thing for boxing? Personally I have mixed feelings. On one side, i fighter down on the cards may change his style and certainly put more effort, hopefully creating a better, more entertaining fight. On the flip side, a fighter may just run for the last 3 rounds if he's far enough ahead the cards, still being confident in the victory.
Had Winky Wright the benefit of open scoring, he'd be the middle weight champion today.
What's your opinion?
