Sould fifteen round championship fights make a return?

Just because the rounds are an even number doesn't severly effect the chance of a draw. That's why knockdowns are worth extra and point deductions cause a flux in points.

I think having an odd number of rounds will definitely MINIMIZE the "draw" results... since it will eliminate the situations where judges gave same number of rounds to both boxers in a 10-point must system and assuming no knockdowns in the fight...

If there's no point deductions and no knockdowns, it's expected that the fight will NOT end in a draw for an odd number of rounds fight...

Your forgetting odd number of judges
And that leads to inconclusive mixed decisions all the time
You could play Clazeghe/Hopkins in front of 151 different judges,and you allmost allways end up with different results

Assuming there's no KDs and deductions, in odd number of rounds a judge is expected to determine a winner. For example Judge A has Boxer 1, then Judge B has Boxer 2. Judge C can't give an even (draw) total score for the fight because of the odd number of rounds so Judge C has either Boxer 1 or Boxer 2 as winner then it results to a majority decision (MD) win of either boxers.

But the judge has all the capability to manipulate the score. The judge can score a round even, 9-9 or a 10-10 round that can result to a draw but these are exceptional situations.

Though as always, the question still remains the same, does that boxer really deserve the win? At least they proclaim someone a winner instead of a draw. Odd number of rounds become a motivation (or added pressure?) for the boxer for there will be a minimal chance for a draw. So meaning if the boxer feels he's behind in the scorecards then he really needs a KO to win, he can't hope for a draw.
