Mundine - Green, should cheats prosper?

[kruddler]

Boxing has a very flawed scoring system in that one fighter can dominate and win 5 rounds by a wide margin and lose 7 rounds by a razor close margin and correctly lose the fight.

Flawed system? Perhaps. But the system has been in place forever and a day and fighters, smart fighters, take advantage of that system.

If you're in front early - hold on.
If you're behind early - take more chances to try and claw back the margin

To me, it was classic playing for points and Mundine didn't do enough to win back those points that Green won early on. The reason i bring up being aggressive is for this fact. I know Mundine had a lot of the fight on his terms....but again, Green was allowing that to happen as long as he didn't get knocked out. He was playing for points. Which he did successfully.
