    Mayweather-Ortiz - to me, Mayweather looked sloppy this fight, and was getting hit with shots he shouldn't have been getting hit with, but he was starting to catch Ortiz. I think he would have continued to catch Ortiz, and at some point before the 12th, Ortiz would have quit.

    Pac-JMM IV - Pacquiao was ripping JMM up, but JMM wasn't backing down. I think JMM would have recovered from the beating he was taking, and would have began to box. The fight would begin to look like the previous fights, but Pac would be doing a little better, and would do enough to earn a SD, based on the work he did in rounds 5 and 6.

    Lewis-Vitali - Both fighters were exhausted. It would have been a matter of who completely gassed first, and I think that person would have been Vitali. Lewis would have stopped him by the 9th round.

    Hopkins-Dawson I - It would have played out just like the second fight did. Dawson wins decisively, Hopkins claims he was robbed.

    Tyson-Holyfield II - Tyson was doing ok in the 3rd, but...doesn't matter. Holyfield had his number. I will give Mike the benefit of the doubt and say he would have made it to the final bell, though, but it'd be 10-2 for Evander.

    I think Pac would have gotten Roidquez out of there by the next 2 rounds. Roid's nose was gushing blood.

    Floyd would have gone on to win 8-4. Vic ain't nothing special at all.

    Tyson gets KO'd. And they stop the Vitlay fight 2 rounds later on the cut, unless Vitlay got Lenexa outta there.

    Mayweather by TKO, round 8 or 9
    Pacquiao by TKO, round 7 or 8

    Why would they have stopped it two rounds later on the cut when the cut was the exact reason they stopped it when they did?

    The cut is what caused the abrupt ending, Pookie, so obviously it didn't happen.

    Mayweather-Ortiz- Ortiz was breaking down mentally and becoming less effective... He was very fast and explosive and started well vs Floyd but ultimately was neutralized by the time of the KO... I think this would have been a stoppage seeing as there were 8 rds to go and Ortiz's history

    Pac-JMM IV- pretty legit KO hard to really try and make a what if.....Leading to the KO it was all Manny who I thought won every round besides the one he hit the deck in, he dropped JMM hurt him and was on his way to winning the 6th and had all the momentum..it looked like he might have been on his way to a non controversial decision

    Lewis-Vitali- love Vitali and I defend him a lot but if Vitali doesnt stop Lewis in the next round the ref stops it, the cut was bad...I doubt a cut and blinded Vitali who was sucking wind was stopping a just as tired Lewis but a dangerous Lewis who had started to get his bearings inside 3 mins

    Hopkins-Dawson I- Probably a Dawson decision

    Tyson-Holyfield II- Tyson had given up

    Marquez' nose gushed blood for nearly 12 rounds in their first fight and Pacquiao still got schooled.

    Every round? Explain why all three judges had Marquez up at the end of 6 rounds?

    it could have been pac tko marquez. if marquez is that confident like in pac-marquez 1 then he would not have hired Memo Heredia.
