I remember Hagler saying recently that they should have the 15 rounders back for title fights because those last 3 rounds were the championship rounds. What do you guys think. Would it just make the rest of the fight a more boring affair with the fighters pacing themselves, or will it mean that the real champions will be able to just bite down on the gum shield and suck it in for the last 3 rounds or is it to dangerous for fighters.
Personally I think that boxing is one of those sports where it is difficult to really pace yourself because some much of what you do depends on what your opponent does on the night. When you look at all the recent great fights that have gone to the score cards (and a lot of the time there is disagreement about the result), I think that most of them would have produced a definitive winner given another 3 rounds.
