Why is there no mention of 10-7? Also, the example uses 9-9 and 9-8 - when has a judge ever scored a round 9-8?!?!?


This article needs editing. The title of the article is 10-Point MUST system. Judges MUST award 10 points to someone. There is no 9-8...

In this system, how is a split decision scored in this example (fighters X and Y) 27-30, 29-28, 29-28?
1. cumulative (all 3 judges' grand total? a.e. total 85-86 fighter Y wins)
2. majority rule (Judges A/B for fighter X, Judge C for fighter Y) fighter X wins

Glaring omissions[edit]

There are two very important things which should be addressed in this article, preferably with an expert opinion:

  • Firstly, those familiar with boxing will know that a 10–9 round in which the winner is deducted a point for a foul is officially scored 9–9. But then, if the round winner must receive ten points, yet is deducted a point for a foul, how is a 9–9 round supposed to make any sense if we're following that rule?
  • Secondly, in the case of a round in which both boxers suffer one knockdown each, what is the score then? What has always made sense to me is scoring 9–8 for the winner (loser of the round drops from 9 to 8 following a knockdown; winner of the round 10 to 9 following his own knockdown), but again, how does 10-point must figure into that?

Redirect[edit]

I changed the article to a redirect to boxing scoring. The content was unreferenced and I could not find reliable sources to indicate that the 10-point must system is notable enough to warrant its own article as opposed to a sub-section of boxing scoring.
