In combat sports, a decision is a result of the fight or bout that does not end in a knockout, submission or other finish, in which the (usually) three judges' scorecards are consulted to determine the winner; a majority of judges must agree on a result. The judges' result can either award a win, loss, or draw.
At the end of the fight, each judge submits their total score for all rounds for each fighter, to determine the result by the following criteria: Unanimous decision win: All three judges have the same fighter as the winner. Majority decision win: Two judges have one fighter winning the fight and the third judge scores it a draw.
