    I'd add a rule: Promoter and promotional companies can not sign fighters to exclusive contracts.

    And for the enrichment of the sports future I would force all of the different governing bodies to merge into one or face near extiction and irrelevance in the publics eyes........... Rockin'

      Its called a 10 point must system for a reason. People think a KD is completely separate from the rest of the round, its not.

        ANybody remember Duran-Leonard 1? one of the judges had like ten 10-10 rounds

          If you could change, remove or add a rule what would it be?


          Here's a good example.

          Why the bonus round of course !!! If a fight is even after 10 or 12 rounds then....the bonus round kicks in !!!

              No more bad judges, or no more judges who are willing to except bribes from promoters or managers to the point where the fight gets scored in favor of the fighter that the managers and promoters wanted to win. Oh and that the WBC needs to allow their titles to get unified with other titles.

                This might also guarantee that the best fight the best.

                  Your not the only person that feels this way and to be honest I never really thought of it but it would be great for the sport.

                      I don't think this would be a good idea because then the people that are winning will not want to engage in the final rounds.
