I admit Iv not read all the comments in the thread sorry! My understanding is all rounds do score but 3,4 and 5 are the more important money rounds.If 3,4 and 5 are deemed a draw then the first 2 will be looked at so as to determine an overall winner.

Exactly why this is the case I could only guess, Tony Myers or Paul Pearson etc would be better able to explain the history and reasons for this exactly I presume?

All that said I understand these rules and this method of scoring, and Im very happy with it, and therefore I am very happy with Muay Thai as a sport.If I wasn't happy Id train and watch k1, kickboxing, MMA etc instead.For example I find k1's emphasis on landing combinations regardless of effect and limited or know clinch terrible to watch.Iv seen many thai fighters doing terrible in k1 rules when oddly there MT has shown them to be the more devastating fighter even though they didn't land as many punches/combinations.

I guess it becomes a bit like why some people prefer rugby union to rugby league!?
