Ariel, any fear that your disrespect of Matt Serra is going to cause Aljo, Weidman, or whoever else in that camp to not want to come on your show? Chris seemed generally a little taken aback by some of the distasteful things you said. May not be worth burning that bridge. Thoughts?

Hello Ariel,

What are your thoughts on changing judging to a round-for-round majority vote by judges? As an example, for the Kara-France v.s. Albazi fight, KKF wins rounds 1, 4 and 5 with two of three judges in favour of a 10-9 KKF score. Albazi wins rounds two and three 10-9 with all three judges scoring those rounds for Albazi. In the end, KKF wins by a single scorecard of 10-9, 9-10, 9-10, 10-9, 10-9. This would require little changing to the judging process, removes split decisions and helps reduce the impact of a single rogue judge scorecard.
