    Just read about it!

    Good or bad idea?

    Rules: once you tag your partner, you can go 2 on 1 for 5 seconds then you must leave the ring.
    Standing counts can be applied
    You cannot tag during a count
    You can hit your opponent from when he has tagged out until he leaves the ring
    5 x 5 minute rounds
    Head guards must be worn
    No 3 knockdown rule

    Why not blindfold a load of boxers, stick them in a ring together, and have a last man standing Battle Royal? Now that is original thinking.

    Oh wait...

    i wouldnt mind a sort of team sport. or at least a stable orientated sport.

    the WBS is an sem-amatuer competition without the headguard and shirts, where i think 7 boxers from each team fights on the same day. which leads to a team scoring how many points. i.e. team A gets 3 wins team B gets 3 wins but koes the guy so they get another point.

    anyone remember the 'world cup' bob arum tried to promote with mexico vs phillipines....which after the phillipines battered everyone finished with ponce de leon sparking out boomboom bautista the highest ranked fighter on the card.

    there was the u.k. vs u.s. contender thing....which technically the brits won but espn where not having it. and said "oh no, jonathon reid is just fighting as support for the main even. but jerson revelo who hasnt fought in the contender before is fighting for us."

    It's happened in MMA & Muay Thai and It was very disappointing the MMA matches I was expecting excitement, illegal chokes and punches but got none of that.

    James Toney and Ricky Hatton could be the new Earthquake and Typhoon.
