Son of Neckbone - I prefer 5 rounds, 3 minutes each, no standups unless there is flagrant stalling. This would also help with getting a more accurate representation of the score.
This. Would defo help with scoring and possibly more action packed fights? Strikers more likely to go for KO against a wrestler knowing they have less time on the ground if they get taken down. Wrestlers and BJJ guys attack more on the ground knowing they have less time to set up
1800champagne - Time for one 15 minute or 25 minute round.
U guys understand it's impossible to give anything near max effort for 15 min right? The whole fight will basically be a jog or a brief sprint and then walking.

I understand. Artificial breaks in the action created by "rounds" is nonsensical for fighting.

Apart from the perfect sense he's just written?
Depends on whether you want mma to be more fight-like or more sport-like.

not really...most real street fights are done in like a minute because there is no time limit and you arent waiting for someone else to gas and you dont pace yourself, which all happens when you introduce rounds either way.....so make them shorter and it will actually mimick a street fights...its counter intuitive but its the reality...

Agree.
The sport is supposed to be simulating a fight. There are no breaks in fights.
no fights ever go 15 minutes
Occasionally they do, but it isn't common. Even better. Fights will run their natural course, and end in a reasobable amount of time, or no more than 15 minutes, max.

occasionally they do?when..i dont think ive seen a 1:1 fight go for more than 5 minutes in my life
Will absolutely blow 8 minute Abs out of the water!
Unless someone of course comes up with 6 minute Abs....
No! No, no, not 6! I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes? You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel. 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.
