    This could probably help the judging of fights

    SCORING SYSTEM
    Four different scoring systems are available for application. While the 10-Point Must system is almost universally employed today, various systems have been used in the past.

    • 10-Point Must: The winner of the round is given 10 points and the loser of the round receives 9 points or fewer.

    • 1-Point Must: The winner of the round is given 1 point and the loser 0 points.

    • 5-Point Must: The winner of the round is given 5 points and the loser is given 4 points or fewer.

    • Rounds: The winner of the round is awarded the round but no points are assigned.
    Unlike the 10-point Must or 5-point Must systems, it doesn’t matter how dominant the
    fighter given the round because no distinction is made. A fighter who might win a round
    by a two or even three point margin in a Points System, receives no such cushion in a Rounds System.

    JUDGES BIAS

    Judges may be assigned, either manually or randomly, a bias, if the player so chooses. The
    choices under Judges Bias are as follows:

    • None: Self-explanatory. The judge does not lean in any direction and simply scores each round on face value.

    • Use Bias Rating: This setting checks to see if a specific judge has a pre-set bias in
    favor of a hometown fighter, defending champion, slugger or boxer, or any combination of the four. No judge in the database has been assigned a bias because of potential
    problems in labeling a real person with a bias. However, it is a simple matter to assign
    one via the Judges Record screen.

    • Random: The computer will assign a bias at random to each of the judges.
    When a bias is assigned, regardless of how, scoring may be affected in any given round.

    For example, assume that a judge has a bias in favor of a hometown fighter. That judge will give the hometown fighter the benefit of the doubt in a close round and have a tendency to either score the round in favor of the hometown fighter or at least call the round even. In a round in which the hometown fighter is badly beaten, the biased judge might score the round 10-9 in favor of the hometown fighter’s opponent rather than 10-8

    Yes in real life boxing most judges have some kind of bias and all have personalities of their own. So I think they should incorporate that into the games. Have some kind of formula where one judge favors activity, one puts a heavy emphasis on power punches landed. I think that should be tied to having a good manager to inform you what type of judges the guys who are doing each fight favor.
