    no breaks in between rounds
    no judges /fight ends when 1 fighter is either kod or dead from exhaustion
    no weightclasses then we will see the super talented boxers get crushed by average heavyweights

    roman gladiator rules with the crowd having the say whetwr the loser lives or dies.

    any boxer who fails to throw 10 punches a round has to wear nappies the next round.

    Most bizarre thread I've encountered on here. Surely a troll?!

    I'm guessing you missed Usyk putting on a clinic and throwing 1000 punches and STILL not getting hit by Gassiev.

    Do punches carry on from other fights??? Say in the previous fight, if a fighter hasn't reached his maximum allowance, can they carry on into another fight ?? Like a top-up

    Thanks man, I'm going to add that to my list of similar compliments from other posters that I'm going to compile someday. I just wish I'd be keeping track of them for longer because I know I'm not going to be able to remember most of them lol

    Would headbutts and elbows count as punches?
    What if you run out of punches in the 4th round of a 12 rounder? Can you buy extra punches by conceding an appropriate amount from your purse?

    Punches are overrated. I look forward to both fighters blowing their allotted punches within the first 30 seconds, and then bam, 2 and a half minutes of bliss.

    I’ve always figured boxing was more a battle of the minds and I’ve never seen why fighters don’t just compete in IQ tests and various quizzes instead of wasting the fans time with all the needless punching.


    Do these troglodytes not know words exist and you do not need to throw punches to get your point across?
