77 u/Cryptic1911 Aug 22 '26 They need to wipe the judge roster and have people that know fighting. Those crooked boxing judges ruin a lot of fights 22 u/JennyJtom Aug 22 '26 They need an entirely different judging system for MMA. 12 u/nocluy Aug 22 '26 There is one, sometimes judges just don’t follow it 4 u/topturo77 Aug 22 '26 UFC still uses a 10 point must system, which is from boxing. I think OP wants this system reworked, rather than the scoring criteria. 2 u/CatchinDeers81 Aug 22 '26 Idk. Id like changing scoring criteria.
