Boxing fans. When you guy's watch a fight do you

Pull out a pen and paper and actually score the fight to compare to the judges when its over or just watch it.

If you are not scoring it takes half the fun away in my opinion

Simply watch and keep a tally in my head. I don't know how to "professionally" score a match anyways. I just go by what I see. Judges probably give points for stuff I wouldn't and vice versa.
What are you on about mate?

Ita not hard bro. Only thing that muat be kept in mind scoring6 in amateur boxing and professional boxing are not completly the same .

But learn how to dl. Always adds to the fun comparing scores with the judges. Especially when you can easily tell the fight waa not rigged per say but blinded eyed to push a bigger pay day down the line for someone

I use my head, and then when the scores start getting announced I have a pretty good feeling of who will win depending on if it's leaning unanimous, majority, or split.

Boxing is such a beautiful and underrated sport. The normies don't understand how much of art it is when u see a boxer put on an unreal combination. Watching it live is amazing too. Would highly recommend brahs to see a live pro boxing fight at least once. It's so much faster than on tv. My fav sporting event to attend srs.

As everyone said, just keep score in my head.
A young bull and an old bull were standing atop a hill looking at a bunch of heifers in a field below.

The young bull says "Let's run down this hill and fuk one of those heifers."

The old bull replies "No. Let's walk down there, and fuk them all."

A five year old can tell you who won a fight. Most of the judges scoring boxing are corrupt, biased, or both.

You're not "legit in boxing" because you pull out a pen and paper and ruin everyone else's night with your wet blanket nonsense while everyone else is just trying to get a buzz on and have a good time.

lmao bro why you getting mad?

If you mean am I a judge or around judges then no, I'm not that involved. But I've been watching boxing my whole life as a fan. If you wanna pull out your pen and paper and score it that's cool, but don't be talkin down on people just cuz they don't do the same thing. You must be fun to be around

I've always scored a bout with pencil and paper, yes. Surprised at how many people claim to do it in their heads, that's not very reliable.

In my experience people who actually sit down with a pencil and paper to score a boxing match they’re watching on tv are try hard *******s that have never accomplished anything worth note in their life so they attempt to impress people by doing cringeworthy chit like scoring a boxing match on tv with a pencil and paper.

Granted this only applies if watching it in a public setting or at a party/gathering, if somebody does it by themselves in their own privacy idgaf.

Never thought about it. Pretty cool idea to get yourself more immersed in a bout you're watching
