BoxingArts scores those rounds the same as the two judges who are in agreement. If two judges can determine the outcome of a fight, then two judges should be able to determine the outcome of a round. After implementing these changes, BoxingArts scored the fight 116 to 112 for Canelo Alvarez. For reference, the Official Nevada State Athletic Commission Scorecard is shown further down.

BoxingArts does not score fights independently of the official judges. It relies upon the official judges’ experience, qualifications, and ringside presence to determine who won each round and ultimately who won the fight. The BoxingArts Composite Scorecard is the only truly reliable method of determining the outcome of a fight.
