Comments Thread For: Amanda Serrano: The WBC Refused To Evolve The Sport For Equality; So, I am Relinquishing Their Title

[TheOneAboveAll]

i doubt very much shes up for it, shes already bailed out of that fight with taylor and taylor went on to fight cameron twice, i dont see or hear anything from serrano that leads me to believe shes on that plane for a fight over there, nothing whatsoever, 2 min or 3 min rounds & for another huge payday for her as well, i hope im proven wrong but i doubt it, if she was really interested she would be all over taylors remarks nailing it down

This is a bit too many replies for a women's fight.

To be honest what matters if women fight 3 mins? It's not as if they are fighting Men. They are fighting their fellow women so no danger.

Female MMA fight the same 5 mins as male and it is quite entertaining with no issues. In UFC female fight 3 rounds 5 mins for non championship match and 5 rounds 5 mins for championship match same as Men and no problem whatsoever even in a 4 ounce glove.

My take is women boxing should still maintain the 10 rounds but with 3 mins and 6 ounce gloves instead of 8 ounces so we can get to see more knockouts and stoppages in women boxing.

Any sport has two opposing sides. All sports have rules. Consequently, one side can't do whatever they want. That's how sport works.

Yeah and on this occasion the people making the rules are not the ones participating. She can choose to fight how she wants, no one has to accept to fight her.

The notion that the sanctioning bodies would change the round limit that's been in place since 1880 or whenever it was if Floyd wanted to fight 2 minute rounds is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen on here. I really hope you're trolling.

I didn’t say anything about the organisation. I’m saying if she wants to fight 3 mins then she can, drop the belt. If Floyd had wanted to lots of ppl would still have bent over to fight him, whether there were belts involved or not.

Of course she can choose how she chooses to fight. But if no one accepts to fight her on that basis, you don't have a contest and she's not part of the sport. She's just someone with no one to fight.
