That won't happen as per reducing the rounds, there are specific rounding counts depending on the weight limit per se. It's unavoidable really because it's a contact sport.
The boxers are aware of those risks because even a long time ago, they've heard and seen the news about a sudden passing through major blows on the temple.
That's the risk they know and their trainers are also assessing that so that it won't happen to the fighters that they're coaching. They know what's best for each of them and they've already embraced this as a chosen profession.
Well, the boxing commission really knows this aswell but they can not reduce certain rounds because boxing will now be boring to watch in a limited round what can they do to prevent it and to lessen the death, they are now admitting that they can not do a thing to this kind of problem but I don't really think coaches or the fighter can remedy that part with their training, but in further more years to come, it is just going to be uglier if they chooses to change certain rules in the declining popularity of Boxing over MMA like I have said if the
Boxing before was fight to the death or shall we say the last man standing. You quit or you die. During the era of Duran, Leonard and Hearns they fought for 15 rounds. Today, it is only 12 rounds. Before, the referees count up to 10, but today, counting ends at 8. There were improvements in boxing to protect their health and lives.
Anyhow, I do not agree reducing the 12 rounds. Non-title boxing matches can be less than 12 rounds, they are not forced. How about replacing boxing gloves? I like lighter gloves and UFC gloves. But boxing is dependent on fists. Extra light and UFC gloves can hurt boxers fists specially when they are in a 36 minute match-ups.
I think there are fight that is being sanction for 10 rounds, specially young prospects like 10 fights or less. But as far as the gloves goes, I remember Manny loving the Cleto gloves or it is Reyes gloves, both weight but the difference is that one is a puncher gloves and then the others to protect the hands or something like that.
So I guess the boxing organizations really done everything to protect the fighters in a brutal knockout, but inevitable that they really punch so hard that it can damage their opponent for good.
