UFC commentator Joe Rogan has called for changes to be made to the current scoring system, this following what he called “incompetent judging” at UFC 247.<\/p>\n

Last night’s UFC 247 pay-per-view event in Houston left much to be desired in regards to the current state of MMA judging<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On three different occasions throughout the event, judges were called out by fans and analysts for making inept calls. In one case, a judge had scored a round for middleweight Tristen Giles, this after James Krause had his back for nearly four minutes of the round.<\/p>\n

Then, in the main event of UFC 247, one judge saw the contest 49-46 in favor of Jon Jones (four rounds to one). That scorecard left Joe Rogan fuming<\/a> and he proceeded to lash out about MMA’s “poor scoring system” and “incompetent judges”.<\/p>\n

\"Jon<\/p>\n

“For anyone to think that was 4-1 Jon Jones, that person\u2019s insane! They\u2019re insane. Dominick Reyes put on a hell of a fight tonight and to disrespect that performance with that kind of judging is just insane.”<\/p>\n

Joe Rogan did not disagree with Jon Jones being awarded the win, but he was baffled how a judge could have seen that fight four rounds to one in favor of ‘Bones’.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s unfortunate because it\u2019s one of the biggest sports in the world. It’s, in my opinion, the most exciting sport in the world.\u201d Incompetent judging. Incompetent judging and a poor system. If we got together the best minds in mixed martial arts and the best journalists and fighters, and they tried to figure out a way that we could agree on a scoring system that makes more sense… It would be nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dAnd clearly there\u2019s a giant issue with people judging that really don\u2019t understand martial arts,\u201d Rogan continued at the conclusion of the UFC 247 broadcast. \u201cThey judge boxing. Boxing you\u2019re dealing with two weapons. A variety of different ways to use them, but only two weapons. With mixed martial arts there is just so much more to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Do you agree with Joe Rogan that changes need to be made to the current system following last night’s UFC 247 event<\/a> in Houston? Sound off in the comments section PENN Nation!<\/p>\n
