The WBC has trialled a new scoring system in Mexico in the past week.

"Electronic Ringside Scoring" was tested during Mariana Juarez's world title fight with Ava Knight on Saturday.

It involves scores being entered on a tablet device and then sent to a computer which adds them up.

Jose Sulaiman, chairman of the WBC, said that he is extremely pleased with the scoring system because it allows "the judges to pay more attention to the fight rather than pondering their score cards".
