What was the official reason for no more 15 round fights??

If you ever get a chance, watch the documentary Triumph and Tragedy the Ray Mancini Story.

There's also the movie "Champion" A biographical story of kim's career

ermm boom boom mancini killed duk koo kim sadly, i think that set the ball rolling

as an autopsy showed kim sustained most of the damage after the twelfth round or something

I think they should still have 15 rounders for unification bouts , when two champs go at it for the whole enchilada it should be special and different than a standard 12 round WT fight , 13 14 15 were the real championship rounds .

agreed
i think they should go back to 15 rounds....th eall time best moments in boxing nearly all happened in rounds 13 14 15....those rounds rounds really seperated the good fighters from the great fighters....
