Today we had our 5th session of the WBC Talks, which aims to impart  knowledge and support to our dear boxing family during these challenging times.

This time our panelists, who are the best boxing judges in the world, had an amazing chat regarding important JUDGING aspects, among them:

Judging Criteria

Affective aggression

Taboo on scoring 10-8 without a knockdown

Memories on their first title fight

Scoring controversial rounds

Pressure and neutrality

Code of Ethics

Honorability

How judges get their score. And many other interesting aspects. We urge the boxing community to watch this video as the conversation they had  is very illustrative towards how to judge a fight.

We would also like to especially recognize Marcie Morrow who is fighting on the frontlines against COVID-19 in the US. Our deepest respect goes to her and the first responders who are champions of real life.
