    why no amateur style in pro?

    I really like the amateur olympic style with the super fast hand speed. How come so few boxers use handspeed in professional now. Most use endurance,power or technique , speed is there for one or 2 punches but no nice swift combos. I think it would be awesome to have speed in fights like the old days. I noticed one of mayweathers earler fights vs manfredy his hand speed was so crazy. Now all he does is look for shots and it gets pretty boring sometimes. I'd also like to see shorter fights like maybe 6 rounds x3 mins maximum. I'm so tired of watching fighters get tired and lose I wanna see who can fight better not who can last longer I like my boxing short and intense. I think we can still get knockouts within 6 rounds. what do you guys think.

    Here's an example of a pretty exciting fight I found if you turn up your volume a bit you can hear just how fast this kid is. This fight is one of my most favorite fights to watch check it out it starts intense and ends intense




    And no I don't wanna see flywweight fights there's not much power in there I would love to see heavy weights fight with the kind of speed in the video above it would make me jizz in my pants

    The pros are based around power head shots,if there were no gear worn in the amateurs there would be many more kos and a lot less action.
