    Championship boxing needs to go to 6 round fights

    That’s the way to make boxing safer.

    I also think it’ll make it more exciting and more appealing to the casual fan.

    6 rounds? If we're going to shorten 12 rounds, make it 9, an odd number so there are less draws..

        Nah...

        How many casuals watch Amateur fights? They’re typically 3-5 rounds.

        F*** the casuals...

          Interestingly, combat sports shorten number of round for action. It's one of the things that make kickboxing cool.

              Boxing will stay, i agree tho hopefully we can keep lowering the rds. Boxing would be 100's of rds in the past so hopefully it keeps getting shortened.. We have a ton of great fights in the past maybe we should van pro boxing all together. The rich love when poor hurt each other for $$$.

                I propose 1 10 minute round bareknuckles and the last 2 minutes they can use baseball bats. Thatd be actually kind of cool.

                    Completely ridiculous. You can only make boxing so safe before you ruin it. Boxing saves more lives then it takes and even though we all have sympathy for the fighter and his family whenever this happens I don't think we need any drastic measures. This fight was not stopped late and nothing could have been done to prevent it.
