Boxing and Probabilty

June 12, 2012

I was going to write a post about increasing the number of judges in a boxing match to cut down on crazy decisions like what we saw last Saturday, but Ken Pomeroy has already suggested it here: How Crazy Was The Pacquaio-Bradley Decision? Bradley Had A 0.03 Percent Chance Of Being Randomly Judged The Winner.

Cheers.
