Everyone knows the current system of judging MMA fights doesn't work but no one has proposed anything better. Until now.
There is no doubt that judging is a problem in MMA. Sometimes it seems a week can't go by without an event where some inconceivable and outrageous decision for a fight is announced. While it would be easy to blame it all on incompetent judges the real reason lies with the fact that the scoring system used for mixed martial art was never designed to be used for mixed martial arts.
MMA judging is done under the 10-point must system, which was borrowed from the already established sport of boxing.
