Why is the Floyd-Mitchell fight a 12 rounder?

[borikua]

I tought only title fight were 12 rounder? Any info on that?

Because Mayweather is the truth, son.

[TheEvilSaint]

almost every fight nowadays is 12 rounders.

i assume u thought it would be a 10 rounder, correct? as big as floyds ego is, he'll be wanting 12 rounds to "prove his point, or whoop michells ass". all big fights are 12 rounders.

i honestly think this fight wont be so easy for mayweather. logic is telling me that floyd will dominate but my gut is telling me that sharmbe will look good.

Ya I thought they had to fight for a belt to make it a 12 rounder...
