Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 3 minutes.
The duration of each bout round in the International Boxing Association (AIBA) Open Boxing matches for Elite and Youth Men’s and Women’s Competitions is 3 minutes. A standard match consists of three rounds, each lasting 3 minutes, with a 1-minute rest between rounds. This format is designed to test a boxer’s skill, endurance, and strategy under a fixed time. The AIBA, now known as the International Boxing Association (IBA), governs amateur boxing worldwide and sets these standardized rules to ensure fair play, safety, and consistency across competitions at national and international levels. Hence, the correct answer is 3 minutes.
