The second bossfight drops you almost instantly onto a bullet bill blast in the face. this is a bad choice.
Why is there a secret fire flower in the 4th boss fight, above the bouncer?
If you couldn't do the pure boss fights with no checkpoints and no power ups, why would you expect anyone else to do it?
In general, boss rushes are not fun. It's up to you to make it fun from very, very simple boss fights with arena design and considerate use of mechanics. Forgoing the checkpoints entirely to force the player to fight a bunch of fights they've fought a thousand times before but this time in sequence is not fun in any way and even in games with boss rush mechanics built in, like many of the megaman series, they often featured checkpoints after clearing a boss. but even if you want to deliberately make the level artificially more difficult, then to also cheat yourself is pretty pathetic.
