    What are some 15 round fights. that had they ended with the 12 round modern format. Would have had very different endings & possibly different victors? And possibly changed some Boxing history.
    Example: Had John Tate-Mike Weaver ended after 12. Tate would have defended his title succesfully.

    Arguello would have half the amount of KOs

    Would a green Mancini have had a draw with Arguello after 12 rounds? Blasphemy!

    I pretty sure Billy Conn would be heavyweight champ.

    If Conn had won that fight. Would the Heavywieght Championship have been frozen during the war, with Conn as Champion? Like as was with Louis.

    Walcott would have beaten Marciano by Unanimous decision 116-112 116-113 and 115-113.

    Conn beats Joe Louis by Majority Decision 115-113 116-112 114-114

    Agreed, good point. A better question (that has also been done) is what 12 rd fight would have been different had they had 15 limits...but even in those they would have conserved energy differently.

    Conteh would have Beaten Saad Muhammed first time round

    Perhaps Yaqui Lopez could of won the title (Galindez/Saad 2nd )
