    The Rules of MMA arent going to change any time soon so I think judges having a better knowlede of what scoring criteria is and whats going on would really help, problem is I dont think we have seen any Progress on this apart from Ricardo Almedia becoming a Judge.

    Remember the last UFC on Fuel? Yves Jabouin wins a round of striking, pretty clearly, landing some big bombs. Then at the end of the round "Bam" a spinning heel kick burrys its self into Houghlands ribs, flooring him, it looks over, The ref runs in to stop the fight with GnP pouring down but Houghland escapes in one peice, Bearly. The round ends, one jude marks it 10-8 on his scorecard... problem is the other 2 arent sure what qualifies as a 10-8 and stick with good 'ol safe 10-9

    Fucking MMA judges Laughing

    I think they need Compustrike stats on an Iphone or something, Something that says Jabouin landed over twice and many shots and knocked him down. It should Vibrate on the stongers setting, flash Red... Beep.. Beep.. "Warning, Wake up, Wake up, this might have been a 10-8 round" because half the time they arent paying attention.

    Honesty, they could make them an App that would help these people, Fuck ever thinking they will understand whats going on in the cage, Make an App with Colour coded stats and a recomended score and let them snooze away because im sure you could make a computer programme that could do their job better!

    I've heard worse ideas, but IMO the 10pts must system, has to be scrapped, I would much prefer a return to PRIDE scoring, but, if the 10pts system has to stay, then yes. Do UFC judges now have access to monitors? I know that they were mooted @ UFC 131, but don't know whether they were fully introduced or not.
