Locked

How long do you want to send your champion/challenger into the ring when a title is at stake?

Poll ended at 26 Feb 2024, 16:32

0.....I will never have a champion, and I shall never send my fighter in to face a champion!! (This option is for Kevo&Crease)

15 rounds. Today's Sim fighters are rugged, handsome, durable, and nary a pussy in the pool!

12...it's safer, and represents the more civil side of pugilism. No fighter should ever again be forced to go out 15 times in a single fight.

Have it your way. Don't be voting twice, no election fraud or interference will be tolerated!

You have 10 days to vote the votes will be counted and ignored....uh I mean implemented.

During that time, if you change your mind you will be able to retract and revote.

The rule was changed from 15 to 12 because 15 was just too brutal. I think our Sim Champions are capable of handling that brutality, and I vote for 15.

here's an asstrick....or is it an asterisk? There is one area of contention where 15 round fights do and will continue to exist. The lineal Lonsdale belt. By the way this belt may weave it's way in and out of sanctioning bodies as well. So in such case there could be 15 round fights in or out of other sanctioning bodies when Lonsdale honors are at stake.

At this point 12 rounds seems to be leading. The poll ends in seven days or so....at that point the decision will be fina.

Bit old school in this regard, 15 rounds. Separate the men from the boys.

9 votes - 4 each for 12, 4 for 15...
Looks like I may have the deciding vote.

Let's go for 12 rounders, only World Championship and Lineal title fights have the option of the 15...
The MDT will also be all 15 rounders as well, of course.

12 rounds it is for Belt fights. There will be 15 round fights on rare occasion.
