Katie Taylor would have LOST if it was 3 minute rounds

[Mr Giggles]

Now we know why Katie never wanted 12 rounds, 3 minute rounds, she would have lost. She would’ve never made it out the 5th round and she would’ve gassed out by round 8.

It’s a joke womens boxing is 20 minutes long, the rounds end before you have a chance to blink!

Is there any reason why the rounds are only 2minutes and why only 10 rounds. At least do 12 rounds at 2 mins then ffs

Maybe, probably honestly, but this is kinda goofy imo. It's changing the entire rules of the sport. Should Spence/Crawford randomly be a 15 round fight?

[FinitoxDinamita]

2 minute rounds is a fkin joke. First time actually watching girl boxing and even wagering money on Serrano and this scam job happens. Lose some and win most. Im good.

Should Spence/Crawford be a 10 round fight, 2 mins per round yeah?

[SilverMiles]

2-minute rounds are good, makes for more fast pace fights which the women desperately need. I have no intentions of watching two fighters hug it out until the end because they dog **** tired by the 6th.

Huge difference. They've trained for 3 minute rounds their entire careers. Changing it would shake everything up, completely different tactics.

[Sparked_26]

I mean they didnt train for 3 minute rounds though.

And by the pace of the rounds the specifically train for a 2 minute sprint. But yeah if the ref randomly allowed another minute in that around then yeah she gets her out.

That makes sense. I still wanna see them fight 3 minute rounds, 2 mins is too quick

Marshall would beat Shields if it was 3 min rounds. It's obvious what would happen if you put the women punchers in with the limit power amir khan type combo punchers like katie and shields.

BTW Amanda didn't even care she got robbed, just was happy to get her sugadaddy paycheck and a rematch.

Fans shouldn't care either. It is what it is.

[Toffee]

I'd like to see women go 3 minutes. At the moment it's rock'em sock'em because they can go hard for 2 minutes.

At 3 minutes you'd see more boxing. They'd pace themselves because they would have to.

Taylor is a nice mover. She wouldn't necessarily gas because they wouldn't both go at the same pace as they do in 2 minute rounds.
