    Fury over 15 rounds is unbeatable.

    The natural size and stamina is overwhelming.

    Solid picks. I think Floyd could pace himself maybe Pacman. I think today Usyk would be a good pick. Bivol also looked fresh after clowning Canelo for 12. I'm sure there's plenty in the lower weight classes that would adapt without too much issue. Although the opposite is true for heavies most of which today are either carrying too much fat or muscle and would therefore struggle in a high output 15 rounder.

    Froch would have been a great 15 rounder.

    Loma for sure

    When Loma put his foot on the pedal he had GRJ in trouble approaching the final bell, Salido was hurt badly in the final round, Pedraza came within a whisker of getting stopped in round 11 and Campbell had to rugby tackle Loma to the canvas in the final round after being hurt.

    Conversely, in round 12 against Teo Lopez, Va-SILLY Lose-a-chenko got rag dolled, beat up, staggered more than once and resorted to roughhousing tactics and a headbutt or two (that opened a nasty cut on Lopez) to avoid getting dropped or stopped by Lopez who was dominating the final round and closing the show like a true champion.

    If memory serves me correct, it was the single worst round in Lose-a-chenko's career where he ate 50+ punches.

    Wilder. Would have maybe finished Fury in the first fight. Would probably catch a lot of people he wouldn't otherwise in rounds 13-15.
