    Somebody already mentioned it but Bell/Mormeck II is a great example. Bell would still be champ cuz Mormeck was gassed midway through the fight and went on his bike after the cards were read following round 8.

    and in another cruiserweight fight...

    Cantatore came back against Johnny Nelson in the Entertainer's last fight winning the last 4 rounds including a knockdown. An extra 3 rounds would have probably resulted in a new champion.

    It's possible that if Pacquiao-Marquez went 15, Marquez could have got the decision

    It's fun to think about how different boxing would be and how history would have played out had championship fights remained at 15 rounds.

    Better post something relevant but that's the first that came to mind, Hatton would have gone.

    yeah i'll come and post around major fight time with you and notb. although i'm going to super joe - kessler and there's too much emotion tied up in that fight so i'll either be crying into my post or weeping with joy a few days later.

    indeed, i saw m saunter off into the dim sunset (again) and dougal throw another hissy fit then not actually leave.

    sorry other esb posters for ot crap, see ya round carlos.

    Julio Cesar Chavez vs Meldrick Taylor - I think the bout would'nt have been stopped at the end of the 12th round the way it was and Taylor would have gotten finished off more difinitively in the 13th and possibly damaged even more than he is now.

    Collazo vs Hatton - Ricky would have been ko'd between 13th-15th rnds. Collazo just had his number all night long.

    Calzaghe was in trouble in that last round against Eubank, but Eubank was horrendously weight-drained in that fight, I doubt he could have kept that up for 3 more rounds.

    The fight that springs to mind most is Hagler-Leonard but one of the judges had Leonard 118-110 after 12 rounds in that fight as I recall so Hagler would have had to win the last 3 rounds big to win it as there was obviously a bought judge in the house that night.

    One I think would have been different after 15 rounds would be Eastman V Joppy, Eastman should have got the decision after 12 and was coming on strong at the end....3 more rounds and it would have been UD Eastman in my opinion.

    Margarito /Williams: Paul was starting to struggle and AM was starting to find his range more.
