    Draws: Are They Good or Bad?

    Simple quetion. Do you think that a draw in a boxing fight is good? Wouldn't you rather have a kinda OVATIME round where ta fightas settle it? Draws are definitely a waste of time IMO becuz it takes so long to make rematches and sumtimes THOSE fights don't even produce a rematch. Example is Pac vs Marquez. Also, I don't get when there's a DRAW as decision, ta champion retains ta belts/belt/ Personally, IMO if there was a draw I think NEITHA should keep ta title and they do immediate rematch.

    Opinions?

    well in a draw, I still think the champ should keep his title...


    but draws are not good...in any scenario...

    if it is a boring hug and pat fest...people at least want to end with a winner or else they feel the time was wasted...

    if it is a GREAT fight, people want to see a winner or else it feels like time was wasted


    if a GREAT brutal fight, you kind of think...why did these guys just go life and death for only to walk away with a draw?

    draws a bad in every sense of the word to me because they don't settle anything or create just endings to boring or great fights...

    the only thing "draws" are good for is when calling "truce" in an argument between people

        until you fight someone who doesn't share the same views and you find yourself looking for the KO punch all night vs a fighter you didn't expect to have better speed, reflexes, jab, defensive skills, and chin...

        that is part of what makes boxing so great...just never know...

          i despise draws. Manny Pacquiao has been robbed in his 2 draws in his carreer. One was gainst Agapito Sanchez, anotha to Juan Marquez.

          i jest thought tha NEITHA should keep ta belts on a draw so ta level of mentality and eagerness to win em IS BIGGA in a rematch. Draw = Nobody won, so I think NOBODY should get ta belts which are ta prize they are fightin fo.

              I'm not a fan of a draw in any fight. IMO there should always be a winner. But in the case of a draw I believe the champ should keep his title, since the opponent didn't exactly come and take it as the challenger. But there should definatly be a rematch without question.

                Draws are garbage imo. The only time I have liked a draw result was what DLH - Trinidad should of been. They both deserved to get draw's because DLH and Tito definetly did not earn the belt. They both looked disinterested, and didn't fight for the belt.

                Other then that, I think draws are a farce.

                  this guy put me on to somethen..the only time a draw should b acceptable...ok, if the fight is like the ****, lots of punches thrown, both guys are beat up and the rounds go back and forth..both guys are barely standen at the end of the fight, and we all sit back and think..damn what a hell of a fight...then ok Draw..but thats the only time...

                    NO!!!

                    A war should ALWAYS have a winner. A fight like DLH - Trinidad should be a draw, when both fighters aren't very interested.
