Talk:Mercy rule

American?
Is this purely a North American phenomenon? The article as it stands doesn't even consider anywhere else, so deserves a globalize tag - unless it really IS a specifically American thing, in which case that should be mentioned. Amateur boxing is the only major sport I can think of where such a rule is applied in Britain. 86.136.253.254 01:51, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I think it's purely a American thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.173.251.124 (talk) 14:10, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
