    would smaller rings

    help defeat the cancer that defensive boxing is?

    to be clear, would smaller rings force defensive fighters to engage more and run less?

    make it happen doe

    so if a guy ducks a punch using defense it's a cancer or
    why even have points, last man standing,
    sounds like you prefer brawling over boxing, boxers can defeat brawlers

          It's the whole point of boxing. Hit and don't get hit. Excessive running does get boring and is not boxing, it's survival. But if your talking about Floyd or Master Rigo GTFO!

          They are Master boxers. Don't get it twisted because you read my post on other threads picking on Floyd groupies. I don't like any groupies period. I just happen to agree with the Pac groupies right now on the whole fight situation.

          Floyd might be afraid of Pacquiao but he is an ATG just like Pac.

                  I'd be cool with a uniform 18ft ring for all boxing.

                  N'Dam was able outbox Stevens in that size of a ring, and Algieri beat Provo in that size of a ring.

                  No need for any bigger imo.

                    The bigger rings make it easier for runners for sure. A real fighter would fight in a phone booth any day.

                    I agree with another post. 18 foot ring and that's it. All day long.
