They have to come up with a new scoring system as they have taken this scoring system from boxing which is really a one dimensional sport ,they have to come up with a scoring system to score take downs and take down defense as well as kicking and striking and have to give a ten point system for every activity in a round .
yep, the athletic commissions just took the boxing system which does not fit to MMA
Why not treat the whole 3 or 5 rounds as 1 long fight instead of treating them and scoring them on a per round basis. This will discourage some fighters from winning on points per round alone like Wonderboy or Dominic Cruz and fight to the finish.
That is how they did it in PRIDE, it was judged as a whole fight, near KO/near Sub where the highest in criteria.
