Davis wants MMA judging reform

By on June 27, 2009

Former boxer Marcus Davis wants an MMA judging reform, following his split-decision loss to British fighter Dan Hardy at UFC 99.

Davis has repeatedly blasted the decision, following their fight two weeks ago.

“A lot of the [judges] just kind of at the very end (of a round) remember the last 10 seconds or 15 seconds or whatever, and that’s how they judge it,” Davis told MMA Junkie Radio this week.

“If you cut [the Hardy] fight up… it’s going to be a landslide for me. You’re going to have a full almost-four minutes in the first round of me just on top, me in control. The next two rounds, pretty much the same thing. The beginning of the [round] I’m strong, and then he just ends the last 30 seconds to a minute of those rounds doing well.”

“If you take somebody down and automatically they stand up, or they take them down and they don’t really do anything, they don’t ground-and-pound, what kind of credit do you do for that?” he added.
