I day or two ago someone asked about the 10 point must system, and after describing 10-7 rounds I realized that I couldn't remember having seen a 10-7 round in any of my fights. So, being a bit anal, I thought I'd do some tracking.

Since then, I've just completed my 21st fight where 2 knockdowns by the same fighter occurred in the same round. I've been using different judges with the random bias selected. No judge (including the "unofficial judge") has yet scored one of these rounds 10-7, including rounds where the scoring differentials were 32-1, 30-0, 30-2 and 25-0.

In my experience, in RLB judges will not infrequently score a 2 KD round 10-7, and certainly many judges would score a totally lopsided round with 2 KDs that way. Now, there are some who stick with the 10-8 pretty much no matter what, and others who need to see utter domination to go 10-7, but it definitely happens more often that what I've encountered . . . which is never.

Maybe I've just had a bad run of conservative judges, but is anyone else getting 10-7's?
