WBA Considering the Return of 15-Round Fights

World Boxing Association (WBA) President Gilberto Mendoza has revealed that the organization is considering a return to 15-round fights.

The format could be tested for certain high-level matchups, though no official decision has been made.

Earlier, WBO junior welterweight champion Teofimo Lopez (21-1, 13 KOs) suggested that undisputed title fights should be contested over 15 rounds, bringing back the old-school championship format.
