Understanding UFB: punches, zones and captain flags

The main scoring mechanics in the currently published rule book.

Points per round

More punches earn one point. The score zone activates after 45 seconds and can earn each team a point. A knockout scores two points and ends the round, not the entire match.

Watch the flags

The green flag doubles the affected match points for both teams. The black flag calls a captain duel between scheduled fights.
