There is nothing wrong with the 10-point must system.
There have undoubtedly been thousands and thousands of articles and posts on the Internet regarding the 10-point must system and how it should be abolished from combat sports, MMA in particular. Partly, because it has produced so many questionable decisions, perhaps mostly because it was developed with the sport of boxing in mind — most MMA fans like to distance themselves from the cousin sport.
However, introducing a more complicated scoring system for judges who can’t seem to utilize the 10-point must system properly would most definitely produce more variability and more chance for corruption.
Take the typical 3-round UFC fight for example, where there are no “obvious” 10-8 rounds, no even rounds and no point deductions. Without caring about the round-by-round particulars, each card can be scored 4 different ways (30-27,27-30,29-28,28-29). Looking at that and other popular proposed scenarios.
| Scoring Method | Potential Totals Per Card |
| 10-pt must (as is) | 4 |
| 10-pt must w/ 10-10 rounds | 8 |
| 10-pt must w/ half-points | 8 |
| 10-pt must w/ half-points & 8.5 rounds | 14 |
| Rounds vary from 10-9 to 10-5 (no half points) | 26 |
| Rounds vary from 10-9 to 10-0 (no half points) | 56 |
* Above results only consider the “typical” fight.

MMA Rankings Updated (06-05-2014)
Notable Info
- This is a fairly large update, as we have used retroactive predictive analysis to determine the most ‘accurate’ rates at which to penalize inactivity and quality performance decay. These types of penalties have always been guesswork and we were close, but now they are more accurate than they’ve ever been. With the latest rankings, these new rates are now in place. Note: When making these types of changes, predictive rates aren’t the primary driver — more like the secondary, but they are most definitely used when large amounts of useful data is available.
- Essentially, inactivity was being over-penalized by about 25%. On the other hand, fighters in “quality performance decay” were being under-penalized by about 35%. This sounds like a lot, but there have always been self-correction methods in place that will remain in place (though this has been modified too) to handle outliers. All in all, the fluctuations in the top part of the rankings are slight. However, beyond the Top 100s, there will be a lot of movement.
