Quote:
The WBC Female Program will not participate or sanction any fight schedule for more than 10 rounds or any bout with rounds lasting more than 2 minutes .
Several facts were reported during the convention which are of total concern regarding any changes of the 10 x 2 female boxing matches :
-Women are physically inclined to have concussions , much more than men.
-A female fighter used to fight 10 x 2 which is 20 minutes, would need tremendous effort to adjust to 12 x 3 which is 36 minutes.
-Menstrual cycle has tremendous impact on the body of a woman, including 12 hormones which act in the body system, creating radical changes in several areas.
-Women's endurance has been proven to be less than men. Marathon running time is much different between male and female.
