The UFC will ask for judge's to be provided monitors at UFC 131 in Vancouver. SBNation's Luke Thomas reports:
Jonathan Tweedale, Commissioner of the Vancouver Athletic Commission, has informed SB Nation MMA that Marc Ratner has also requested judges scoring bouts at UFC 131: Lesnar vs. dos Santos also receive video monitors as a viewing option. "The Commission will be considering that request in the near future," Tweedale said.

This is so awesome!
And, I believe, will go a LONG way to solve the judging problems as of late.
In fact, this is the best possible solution, in my opinion.
Exactly.
They won’t have the “bad vantage point” excuse to hide behind.

We can finally get some decent
Scorecards as long as long as the UFC is running the production and not Showtime.
Just Breed!

This might help some what
But u still cant get everyone to agree on all of the fights. Some times here at my house the people are split on who won a fight. It might help on some bullshit fights they have blown it on in the past. :Like leonard garcia and pham.
It's not the judging solution...
but that picture posted above is the 1000 words that could be said about why having those monitors is a certain must-have!
All the other ’don’t leave it in the hands of the judges’ talk aside, if those monitors become the norm, that’s a big step in the right direction. There is still much to be accomplished…
To be fair, judges sit next to the actual cage. That’s a shot from the media section.

Um
whats to stop the UFC from putting Monitors all over the bottom of the octagon? if the Judges have one in front of them all the better.
The Commission? When they did something similar in Nevada, the monitors were removed.

I'm not sure if it was for the NSAC
but I do remember reading an article a couple weeks ago about the UFC requesting monitors from them too.
what will monitors do?
there are people in the nosebleeds that can judge better than these jerks.
everything dana white says is a complete lie
