Who would be the GOAT if fights ended at a random round?

I guess Vitali Klitschko by how infrequently he lost rounds.

 

My best guess...a roided-up Jem Belcher wearing Cleto Reyes.

 

Ricardo Lopez I don't remember him ever losing any rounds, apart from against Rosendo Alvarez.

 

Prime Roy Jones Jr and prime Michael Nunn did not lose many rounds at all. Of the two, RJJ would be the GOAT.

 

Basically if boxing was crossfit.

Let's add that the fighters are only told the exact rules, including how the rounds work, what gloves are being used (if any), when they enter the ring.

 

Tough one.

 

If we are going that ridiculous, I guess I'll just pick a KO artist. Prime Tyson will end a lot of fights real quickly, so I guess I'll pick him here.

 

My thought too. Either a guy that wins nearly all his rounds or a guy that ends fights very fast.

Butterbean is starting to look good for the 4 round fights

 

Yep RJJ is the king here.

 

Featherweight Henry Armstrong.

If this was the case, the vast majority of tactics would change. You'd need to grab rounds early on because you might not be coming out for the next round. This naturally favours fast starters and pressure fighters. Then you need to remember that you could be in there for the next two hours. So you need someone who isn't gonna run out of gas.

Naturally, this leads to a fast starting, hard punching pressure fighter who won't ever let up even 15+ rounds in. Who better to do that than Henry Armstrong? The guy was extremely difficult to out-box over extended periods, and impossible to outfight over any period. Over short periods, maybe the elite of the elite would be able to fend him off for long enough to win a close decision. Pernell Whitaker is an enormous favourite over 6, but has no chance over 26.

 

The Klitschko’s hardly lost a round during their reigns of dominance so it would have to be them two.

 

Are KOs included or no?

 

There is an ultramarathon called the piece of string ultra.

You literally don't find out how long it is until it ends.

One year it was 111 miles, to give you an idea what to expect.
