The Start of My Amatuer Judging.......

I spent all of last sunday at the Tacoma Boys and Girls club learining about how to be a judge for amatuer boxing. It is not scored the same way that pro fights are scored. During the rounds that are fight your goal is to tally how many cleanly landed punches each fighters land. One point for each landed punch. There is no added points awarded for a Knockdown, even thought a fighter can win by KO, or TKO. This is to de-empasize raw brawling and empasize technique and skill. I am going back down to Tacoma on Saturday to practice judge some fights during thier tounament. Will post after I have went.
