    I'm looking for some historical 15 round fighters where the result would have been different if it was only 12 rounds.

    Conn vs Louis, LaMotta Vs Dauthuille

    Some other ones, Holmes vs Conney (pretty sure Conney was above) and Marciano vs Walcott

    This might have been the most impressive fight of Duran's career, despite the loss!

    Some of us believe if scored rd by rd and watch who lands leaving the names and prefight expectations out, that Duran should have won. He scored more in more rds.

    Holmes was well ahead of GC.
    Walcott was ahead of Marciano, though.

    Lockridge was ahead in Pedroza I and many feel Lockridge won...I always did but in a FOTW thread I scored Pedroza who came on late to take it on my card and a few others.

    maybe not exactly historical but dave boy mc auley fight against fidel bassa was 1 of the last flyweight 15 rounders. Had it been 12 rounds mc auley would have won on points
