Should boxing implement a 13th round if and only if after 12 rounds fight is a draw?

    Giving an unlimited number of rounds until a fighter gives upm without stoppages would be detrimental to fighters like Margarito for example who wouldn't give up until they suffered irreversible damage.

    Imagine Margarito fighting pacquiao for 20 rounds or badou for 20 rounds because they didn't want to give up. Margarito already broke his orbital bone after 12, what more if they let the fight continue until he gave up.

      Yeah no shlt ******, boxing is a combat sport.

      There is a difference between 12 rounds of fighting and unlimited rounds of fighting until someone gives up.

      Unlimited rounds of fighting would increase the injuries, damage and deaths significantly.

          Yeah ok come talk to me when you stop being embarassed by your record and have the balls to share your profile.

          You act like some boxing guru but after your entire career ended decades ago, nobody knows who you are.

          You are an old washed up nobody.

                A sad old man with the exact knowledge that you seek. I'm sure that your 9 to 5 fulfilled all of your dreams.

                  The knowledge that I'm seeking is how to expand and secure my empire and legacy.

                  I'm not seeking how to be a lonely pothead nobody spending all his time on an internet boxing forum, Thanks.

                    ESPN used to do it on their ESPN title fights .
                    Title fights should be 13 rounds anyway.
                    Freaking Sulaiman and Roone Arledge reduced it to 12 instead of 13 so title fights would fit a one-hour tv slot.
                    It had nothing to do with safety.

                      Well, if you were expanding your empire, as you say, than you wouldn't be wasting your time on here. Expanding your empire! LMFAO! Knocking up dumbass girls does not count as 'expanding your empire'. ………...Rockin'
