12 rounds is too much for boxing

Your sig...i cant wait to see this ****y midget get KOd

Its 2018, you need to change both sig and avi.

I'd probably like 15 rounds at 2 minutes each so that fighters get less tired and produce more action.

That is your problem and nobody else's problem. You could always start watching fights at the start of the 5th round and then you wouldn't be so bored. I doubt they will no longer have 12 round fights just to keep you from being bored. I just watched many hours of boxing today and was never bored. Luckily for you they no longer have boring 15 round fights like Ali vs Frazier or the first Leonard vs Hearns fight. Maybe you need to watch sports that don't last so long like drag racing or the 100 yard dash.

They should go back to 15 rounds for championship fights. I'm fine with ten rounds for everything else except for your lower level 8, 6, and 4 rounders. Things get really interesting in those last three rounds. I wish that hadn't changed.

And if you get bored from a good twelve round fight, I don't think you're much of a boxing fan.

I tend to agree. I think the audience often loses a fight a coupe times in those 36 minutes. Idk that our attention spans are THAT long. And this isn't just kicking a ball, these are people doing real harm to each other. Its dangerous. So yea I wouldn't hate the ide of less rounds.

I also think rounds should more of a descriptor of where one is at in ones career.

Needs to go back to 15 rounds for title fights in my opinion and same day weigh ins

Totally agree, bruh.

Like watching half a race lol, its about the finish its a test of wills.

You fellas are casual fans , hard core fans like the 12-15 round main event fights because they are the best fighters in boxing , if youre bored watching the best fighters then that's because you don't understand whats really going on , some fights are highly skilled chess matches and its great to watch it unfold.

I'm with what other posters said. It should be back to 15. Boxing is about barely making it over the finish line. It's not about mastering how little you can do in that time period to not be dog tired at some point in the fight.
15 rounds would mean a seismic shift in the type of champions that'd make it to the top. Boxing used to be about your best self to cope with retaining stamina and endurance. Meaning if you were a bulked up gym rat it'd hurt your performance.
