O.S.R.
is the abbreviation for Open Scoring Rules,
which means that the scoring is open for
everyone to view during the contests to ensure fairness to all competitors.
Open scoring is used for all Olympic sports, including Boxing and Taekwondo.
On A.K.A. Kickboxing events, this is done
using score machines mounted next to the area of play ( boxing ring
) during bouts. The format is similar to Olympic
Style Rules
as seen in Olympic Amateur Boxing.

All the striking techniques and methods are allowed as is used in the

K-1 Rules' or 'Japanese Rules',

wearing protective equipment and open-scoring being used by the judges),
and contested under the 'Oriental ' Style Kickboxing method.
