Great question. A "bout" is a phrase used to refer to a short period of intense activity of a specified kind. Generally it is used to refer to something strenuous such as a boxing match and it is often used to refer fighting, as is the case in this clip. Ex: The boxer lost his bout with the champion. Ex: It is best to do occasional bouts of high impact exercise.
