The idea of using a computer to judge a boxing match is good in theory, but there is so much more involved in scoring a boxing match than punches landed.
Who was the aggressor, who showed the ring general ship, who was better defence, who had the highest work rate. Who landed the cleaner more telling punches.
At this moment in time with the technology that we have i don't think it would work, it needs to progress a little further. So at this moment flawed humans are the best option, but the method in which the the judges are chosen could be improved.
For example, have 10 judges scoring the fight and then pick three randomly for the final decision, that would limit the possibility of corruption, because it means you would have to pay at least nine judges to make sure the fight would go in your favour.
Nice article, i like your perspective of how the judge just got it wrong, me personally i had alvarez winning the fight by about 4.
I would also like the judges to see replays and the different TV angles that the viewing audience gets to witness.
Yes, that is a great idea, it would definitely help with a lot of mistakes that judges make on the night. It is one thing that people don't take into consideration when complaining about judges, they only get to see the fight from one limited angle, at times they can't see punches landing and so therefore can't in good conscience, score them.
