Round 1
Forfeited
Without knowing the exact points the opposing side is contending for, there's nothing to refute or make counter points without points to counter to.
Round 2
Forfeited
I rest my case.
Round 3
Forfeited
Case closed.
Realistically, this debate is pointless. Pro has not even confirmed his position and forfeited every round. Plus this debate has been answered so many times previously.
Honestly, people don't understand much about marriages in this era during this era. Arabs married their children off at young ages so that by the time they are mature enough to get into the physical stuff, they would've emotionally bonded. This tradition was not created by the prophet. For all he knew, this is how things work. It would've been a different story if this happened today.
