that's a really pitiful post Bilbo.....I know you try to push some buttons and irk a few (most) on this site I never expected to see you advocating "Blood sport".....1 death in boxing or any sport is too much....the glory days are gone because boxing left it's fanbase.....PPV destroyed boxing...sure some super ultra mega fights might warrant a PPV but not 90% of the fights that are on it today....when boxing left national telivision it started to decline.....
Oh come on bigaru you know I ain't being serious ;)
Actually I agree pretty much with your analysis, you make a good point have a :coolclick:

Not sure I'd go quite that far...
but I would like to see the 15 round fight return, at least for championship matches. They can keep the heavier gloves.
15 is to many... maybe for jr middles and under but for the big men too many...
well if you like seeing them battles.... them great warriors would be like Ali not hopkins when they are 42+yrs. with 15 rounds...
it would dramtically decrease the primes (especially for the great fighters)
but maybe it would be nice if they selected one bout a year out of all the fights..... of course i think you all are forgetting a 15 round Taylor-Spinks could kill boxing ;D
a ruiz-briggs 15 rounder might kill people but it aint gonna be in the ring O0
wow....a Ruiz fight that could go 15 rounds.....I just kicked my dog at the thought of it!!! :) just kidding....I punched my wife in the face!!!.....

Who would want to do it? As personal who was athletic enough to play other sports even football there is a feeling of security knowing that even if you look bad you won't get absolutely destroyed.

Re: Boxing is getting to soft
well i guess it comes done to me jsut wanting to see more exciting fight and i think i get it if they make it back to the way it was in the old days
Re: Boxing is getting to soft
Did any of you see Katsidis v Amonsot and Larios V linares on the BHop V winky card last week???????? That was not soft!
We don't need 15 rounds. All we will get is 3 more rounds of BHop and winky making love instead of fighting.

I sad click you for such stupidity....You either have no real knowledge of what it takes out of you to get in the ring and fight or you just do not care about the well being of the guys who put it on the line...
Either way the SC is well deserved.....
An extra 3 rounds is not going to make the fight any better if it was a dull boring bout up until the 12th it is just going to be 3 more BORING ROUNDS!!!!!
If the fight was a war up until the 12th round then there is not reason to push the limits until one guy goes past the point his body will allow and someone ends up hurt PERMENATLY!!!!
Go tell Micky Ward and Arturo Gatti they needed another 5 rounds...Tell Bowe and Holyfield you think they are soft and there fights needed more rounds....

Thanks. Not too long now and i will be up to that magic 100 mark and i can do it for myself ;D.
Re: Boxing is getting to soft
15 rounds should be the preserve of champions. Remember without them there would be no Rocky Marciano undefeated champion, or Leonard beating Hearns. Also they may have provided a clear winner in the close contest such as Bhop v Taylor 1.
