Do you crave the return of the 15 rounder?
Looking at the the excellent thread by Romulus, it got me craving the return of true world championship boxing. I don't know if many others miss those days, don't know how many on here witnessed those days, but a 15 round world title fight was the defining test of a fighter.
It was abolished for safety reasons, which is bollocks. It robbed Hagler, for instance, of a victory over Leonard (I happened to have watched that fight tonight, so it's relevant in my mind), and it has genuinely taken away from the age old adage that we are "entering the championship rounds", ie, 13-15. These days the championship rounds are anything after the 10th! That is lame, that is wrong. I long for the reinstatement of 15 round fights. Do you agree? Are you against the idea? Why? Let's talk about it. |
