Boxing Scoring Systems

Post by dw001da »

Hello all,

Can anyone point me to where I may find information on the evolution of boxing scoring systems, primarily in the U.S.? I'm familiar with the many types, from newspaper decisions, to ref only scoring, rounds, 5pt. must, 10 pt. must etc. - but I'd like to better understand which was in use, where and when. Even within the 10 pt. must system there's been some evolution from occasionally scoring 10-8 rounds without a knockdown, to that being nearly unheard of today. Any help toward info or resources would be appreciated. Thanks!
