If you think it's a draw you score 10-10, then -1 each so 9-9, but one guy has to get 10 ?!
Never understood the rule; seems to be open to much interpretation and probs what sneaked Derry over the line.

The rounds still scored 10-9, 10-10 or however, but a -1 goes in the deductions column on the scorecard, so it reads 10(-1)-9(-1), effectively 9-8.

You're wrong mate. Us fans want to see him again and no matter what, the home fighter will get the decision, so everyone's a winner - except Luis that is.

So you score 10-9, but HandsofStone scores it 9-9 - kinda proves my point that it's too unclear.
A ref could argue it was 9-8 Mathews but '10pt must' so upgrade him to 10-8 - be interested to see the official cards when (if?) they're announced.
