Welcome to rMMA's General Discussion Thread!

Discuss your favorite fighters, the upcoming card or something you forgot to bring up in this week's Moronic Monday thread.

Custom flairs: here are three ways to obtain a custom flair:

  • place and lose a flair bet in the Friday thread
  • write a haiku
  • draw a MS Paint-style image for the sub

The rules for the drawing or haiku are simply that it must be a ridiculous MMA-related scenario. If you would like a custom flair, send a message to us with a link to your drawing and your flair request. We'll probably grant it.

Interested in modding? Please fill out the mod application found here. Do not leave a comment about this in the thread. You can send us modmail if you have questions.

Why are MMA organisations not getting 5 judges instead of 3

216 Upvotes

Following last night main event awful judge scoring I just keep thinking how close this judges are to completely destroy some fighters career. Since we will not move away from the boxing scoring any time soon and we are just hoping that those judges have the minimum skills and expertise to score a fight correctly why is UFC and other MMA promotions not pushing to get 5 judges instead of 3. I don't see many disadvantages with this change but there are a lot of advantages. It's easier for 2 judges out of 3 to pick a wrong decision instead of 3 out of 5. I don't see any issue with this change and the score totals will be completely different but this is a small price to pay. It's not like you will change the whole scoring process but you'll just increase the number of the judges for less error rates. Why is this obvious upgrade not taken into account?
