I know this may sound stupid.but in the Olympics they display the points per.round. why do judges not submit their scoring. Per round in the pro.game so.everyone knows including the boxers his the fight is. Going..or.I presume.they don t display the scores. Due to.safety and.security.of the officials ??,just curious. And the scoring would.10-9,10-8,etc scoring system pro or.is.it because fans and fighters.might.give up or.leave building before fight end/??/

It destroys fights, Garcia vs Herrera had open scoring. In a fight it looked like Garcia was losing he was told he was winning at the half way stage (might be the 8th but the point stands). So for ever more Garcia lives with accusations of losing a fight when he slowed down in the latter part of the fight he knew to be winning.
If judge based scoring was perfect then open scoring would be fine, but it isn't.

I see this point raised a lot but at the end of the day the problem ISN'T open scoring but is shit scoring. As you said yourself it's not the open scoring that is the issue. They use it in Japan for Japanese and OPBF title fights as well as WBC title bouts and it works over there. Thailand use it and it fails there where the judging is TERRIBLE.
