Anyone else feel cheated when a big fight goes 12 with no stoppage or kd?

Just being honest folks, I have tried to appreciate just the technical aspect of boxing for just that but I don't care for anyone's skill set if it doesn't provide some entertainment value.

If that is all you want then why not just watch training and sparring vids?

It depends on the fight.

Something like Klitschko-Haye or Garcia-Matthyse, where we're really expecting KOs and they've been hyping it? Hell yeah!

But a fighter that I already know is going to look to box? No way. If I think their style is boring, I don't watch.

they should fight to the death. they should just get rid of the gloves and the referee. they should get rid of the rounds to and just have them fight until someone dies or someone quits or is permanently injured and maimed. i am so thirsty for blood. i could throw a toddler on the ground and kick it in the throat right now. imagine just pounding in someone's skull with the claw side of a hammer? i just want maximum carnage...period.

Because that doesn't test the fighter's ability in competition, you dolt.

I feel a lot more cheated when it ends early.

OK...DON'T WATCH! Only watch Brawlers! Different STYLES is what makes Boxing Special, I don't want to see everybody "FIGHT THE SAME"

If you just want to watch skill and guile why does actually competition matter?

Its an ass kicking contest not a fencing match.

NO, like some of the other people on this forum, you want the rules to change so that the fighters YOU LIKE can be considered the best but IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!

No one ever misses an Amir Khan fight, why is that now?
