If you had the power, would you bring back 15 rounds ?

[-MAKAVELLI-]

nah...12 is fine...imagine 15 rounds of a John Ruiz fight?



however, for all ppv fights, i WOULD like to see 3 rounds added to any fights that end in a draw...

[craigus1990]

Anyone who says yes is ******ed. You would be responsible for a hell of a lot of deaths.

[Ringlife]

I would change it to 13 rounds so there would be less draws.

[KnockUTheFukOut]

*** NO!

Easy for us to demand it when we are not the ones training and boxing, but no 12 Rounds is fine

[Russian Crushin]

No need for 15 rounds

But like many have stated, 13 rounds for an odd number would be nice

The greatest fight of all "The Thrilla in Manilla" was a 15-round fight. It would not have been as great as a 12-round fight. From my own selfish point of view, I think the 15-rounders were true events. Leonard - Hearns I comes to mind also. 12 rounds has always seemed like a little less than a complete meal. But I can't argue against anyone who says it protects the fighters. Since boxing is a sport where the threat of death is real.

I can't decide yes or no, but I bet Chavez Jr. wishes he would've had 15 to make the comeback of his life!

I would argue even more strongly against same day weigh-ins. The reason being is that boxers would still try to suck as much weight as possible, and they'd be at a huge risk for brain injuries.

When you drain your body of fluids, it also effects the fluid that surrounds, and protects the brain.

Here's an analogy: Put an egg in an empty glass, and put an egg in a glass full of water. Shake the glass. . . Lol of course your brain is not anything like an egg, but the analogy is solid: With the fluids drained that serve as a coating, and protection between the brain, and the skull, you're at a greater risk for brain injury.

I know it's frustrating sometimes to see boxers rehydrate 20+ pounds between fights, but that's better than risking boxers health.

When you're right, you're right. Here was me forgetting that there would be some idiots who would keep draining themselves to fight smaller dudes even if it meant they were going to be killing themselves literally and figuratively.

Maybe they'll regulate it at some point, I know the WBC has already pretended to.
