I remember reading about boxing matches going for hours and only ended until someone was knocked out or quit.
They should make boxing this way again, so they can get rid of judges. and solidifying the true nature of boxing and fist fighting. Beating someone into submission or that other person quits and gives up.
It will also test the endurance and heart of that person. And prove who the best fighter is in the world without question.
The ref, corner or ringside doctor can stop the fight if it gets tot he point where the guy is taking a one sided ass whooping so the fighters health and safety will still be first priority its not like they are fighting to the death. You will eliminate controversial decisions this way.
Stop with the pretentious wanna be macho BS, nobody will think you're tough just because you make threads like this and punch you chest that you're only curious for KO-s.
When there's so much money being paid to even the loser, it lessens the incentive to win.
If you ask me, all matches should be an 80/20 split with the 80 going to the winner. Only then will you see both fighters put absolutely everything on the line.
It would be interesting to watch but honestly boxing is already brutal enough.
If you were to subject fighters to this then you would have to pay them triple.
But like I said boxing is already plenty violent. I mean look at the recent Tapia-Soro KO. Soro was throwing bungalows to Tapia's dome... with great technique. Very brutal. I vote no but didn't vote in your poll because it is biased.
That's just cruel. But then again you are talking about people that would rather watch a one sided massacre against a good fighter and a chinless, skill less novice then a chess match between 2 all time greats.
boxers are now professional athletes,and boxing is a sport.if you dont like the way floyd fights,then dont watch his fights.theres plenty other boxers who are all action,if thats your thing.you have different styles in boxing,accept it.
disgrace
...or we can save a lot of embarrassment and excuses if these “warriors” learned to cut off the ring?
#48 AND his fans are a disgrace to our sport.
I think that little over the top, boxers would have too short of a career if they keep getting KOed.
Instead Clinching should be banned completely.
If you clinch, it 1 point deduction.
For this to happen the authorities would have to agree to it and they never would. We haven't had boxing matches to the finish since the bare knuckle days of the 1890s. The rules were completely different. Wrestling and picking a man up and throwing him down was legal. A round ended when a man went down whether that was a minute or an hour. The downed man had a full 30 seconds to be standing up and ready to fight. His helper or second could do anything in those 30 seconds to revive him including using smelling salts. Holding and hitting was perfectly legal, an Andre Ward paradise. When a man could not continue within the allow 30 seconds the fight was over. Fights sometimes lasted for 8 hours or more. Does this sound like the kind of fights TBE would enjoy? Remember, a knock down for 10 seconds wouldn't do it. You needed to put your man down for a full 30 seconds to win unless they quit.
keep the 3 pt line, just make a new 5 pt at mid court and and an 8 pt line from the other side of the court. And after stopping the game to review the scoring shot; if it's determined that you got nothin' but net you get an extra 2 points for the shot.
Bruh do you how many 200 pts games it will be. Players will average 60 pts per game. Lmao
This is a joke right
Why stop there , why not fight until the death for our entertainment , while we're at lets throw in weapons and make it gladiator style and show who the real warriors are. Throw out health precautions because that's for p.uss.ies
People on here claim to be fans of a sport but just want violence
Well, if you want to go that route, why not go all the way? To the death. Marquez would have kept stomping Pacs head till his skull cracked open. Two men enter, one man leave. Will that satisfy you?
I think boxing is fine as it is. If anything I think horse hair gloves should be banned. We can always find more ways to protect fighters health.
Something is wrong when TBE is a guy whose opponents come out of fights looking handsome and ready to go more rounds: Guerrero, Canelo, Pacquaio.
Floyd's fights are more like figure skating or dancing. Very lovely and precise. And boxing "purists" are smug in proclaiming that they're the only ones who truly understand the fine art of watching a guy outpoint his opponent.
But I think boxing was invented to find out who can kick who's ass.
Floyd's ancestors in boxing -- Leonard, Ali -- did actually mess people up in fights, as Floyd did somewhat at lighter weights, years ago.
I don't condone limitless rounds. We don't want to kill people. But I'm in favor of fights with 15 rounds in which judges also reward aggression and discriminate between pitty pats and real punches that do damage.
He has you writing paragraphs about him on a blog at midnight. He's doing something right. 48-0 deal with it

You ain't never won a fight a day in your life! So how are you going to suggest a rule change in a sport you never contributed to? lol you cyber thugs are funny
