Should championship fights go back to 15 rounds?

[Gandalf]

Absolutely, they should. It didn't do Marciano, SRR, SRL, or Duran any harm. These guys fight once or twice a year these days, so they should bank an extra half a dozen rounds for their money. Bad things seldom happen and if they do then they do. I don't see anyone getting all irate about cars or bees and yet boxing gets demonised and watered down because very occasionally bad things happen. It's a weight loss issue more than an extra few rounds of boxing issue.

im happy with 12

imagine an extra 3 rounds of mayweather

I would go for it, I can't remember the days of 15 round fights, it would certainly make some fights a little more interesting.

for example, the Eubank JR v Billy Joe Saunders fight, how would that have gone if it was another 3 rounds? would BJS have let Eubank Jr into the fight after 6 rounds? would we have seen a knock out between the 13th/15th round because both of them were dog tired.

but at the same time they both fought a good hard fight and it was close as fuck at the end, if it went 15 rounds and one of them had a KO against them it could be seen as being a little unfair

I've always said they need to bring 15 rounds back. There really is no reason we shouldn't have them. I would however, limit them to legit titles and not every strap that someone holds because there are definitely worthless fights I don't want to see go the extra 3 rounds.

Those 3 extra rounds help the champion and why they are called the champions rounds. You beat the champion you earned it.

I have always been a fan of the 15 rounders in the past.

But it is not going to happen, so the fight is to keep 12 rounders for as long as possible.

I thought they may have thought it out and made them 13 rounders to avoid any draws.

So now they should go hard or go home.
