Why is Hugging Allowed in Boxing? I believe most viewers think hugging makes the sport a bit boring to watch.

But then you would have knock outs happen in under a minute. That would provide less value for the people who spent money to either watch the fight or be there in person. I think it's structured in 12 rounds so that the viewers can betterbbe entertained, even though I feel like that doesn't really show who's the better fighter, rather who can hold out the longest.
