basis, without boxers wearing headgear or vests. There is
professional-style scoring, three judges, one referee and
one supervisor. WSB matches consist of five bouts -
bantamweight (120 lbs.), lightweight (135 lbs.),
middleweight (160 lbs.), light heavyweight (185 lbs.) and
heavyweight (200 and up lbs.) -- with five, three-minute
rounds. The team with the most wins from the five bouts wins
