Well, I agree that women need 3 minute rounds. With just 2 minute rounds, there seems to be difficulty in being able to substantially differentiate which fighter won the round. There’s less of an art and strategy with 2 minute rounds. With those short rounds, the fight just becomes about throwing in volume. The only good thing about 2 minute rounds is that you don’t have to wait as long to get the fight over with and move on to the men’s fights.

2 rounds is just fine how it is and the only reason the few that do watch female boxing do so.

If you make it 3 we're just going to see their already terrible stamina exposed even further, the fights will be even more boring and fought with no urgency.
More stalling, more clinching, with every fight going the distance and having no knockdowns or drama as if this isn't already an issue as it is.

It might seem a good idea to a few now but as soon as it was installed we all know it'd be a big regret.

So now she admits there was a gap to close. LOL She just keeps coming up with excuses, this girl is delusional

Mayer needs psychiatric help at this point.

[Get em up]

I'd like to see Mayer's gap but not closed... stuffed full but not closed

Why do we keep hearing about this over and over and over again? Good grief wtf already.

I do agree with her. Id like to see women's boxing rounds go at least to 2:30 or at least add an extra rnd

Nah the reason for 2 minute rounds is physiological. Women’s bones and craniums aren’t as dense or as thick as men’s meaning any trauma to the head is more pronounced and dangerous.

Hmmmnnn ... wonder how she was able to win her other fights. I mean being restricted to 2 min rounds and all ....

I call BS.
