You're talking about taking a gruelling task - a 12 round fight - where the chances of injury and dehydration are significant as it is, and prolonging it by 25%, to the benefit of absolutely no one besides old men so they can relive their childhood or something. Of course it makes it harder on the boxers. The Boston Marathon is 26 miles, if you add 4-5 miles on top of that of course you're increasing the risk significantly.
It's probably the dumbest discussion you can have on boxing. There's absolutely no argument for 15 rounders other than "...fuck off, I like 15 rounders." It's like talking to a 10 year old.
