What was the largest number of rounds ever contested in a single boxing match?
The longest boxing match (with gloves) in history was 110 rounds long. It began around 9 p.m. on April 6, 1893 and ended the next day well after 4 a.m. Andy Bowen and Jack Burke fought for seven hours and 19 minutes in New Orleans, La. before the match was eventually deemed “no contest” when the fighters were too exhausted to continue.
