Nobody here is good for 12 rounds anyway.

Glen, maybe you should study more upon the subject before chiming in with your opinion. MMA is 3 rounds except for Championship fights. Deaths in MMA weren't commonplace, and still aren't. There were no deaths in early MMA, back when it was called NHB. Olympic Boxing or Boxing itself is only one part of MMA.
