All programmed to go 36 minutes, but 12 rounders are crap compared to the olden days.

Boxing shouldn't be a sprint, it should be man against man for a good hour and that's what 15 rounders are.
And it was a great way of separating the good from the great. The real top-notchers could all do 15 rounds. The authorities would never revert to 15 rounders, though, in case a tragedy happened in rounds 13-15.
