Are fixed fights only 4 rounds or less?

    Not that I think Canelo vs Angulo was fixed. But this excuse keeps coming up time and time again. Do all fixed fights have to look like Tyson vs Seldon or Green vs Briggs? Who is the genius that came up with this logic, a fight that exceeds x amount of rounds is automatically eliminated from any possibility of being fixed?

    Green vs. Briggs was a fix if I ever saw one.

    yea pretty much, early ko, but the fixers may be gettin more sophisticated and kno early ko is too obvious so they bring in warriors to receive a beating for several rounds in exchange for free lifetime supply of cheeseburgers and skittles

    i dont think so.

    the way judges score fights proves otherwise.

    an fights like banks/mitchell II

    idc wut any one says banks can hammer that dude wit a straight right at will.
    that punch will always find its home .. just like the first fight n wut he done throughout his career.

    banks took it easy on mitchell in the 2nd fight ... no doubt in my mind he has way more experience then mitchell and mitchell cant stump banks like that where banks doesnt kno wut to do.

    not really, see Pac-clotty for an example of a fixed fight that went 12 rounds.

    Scott was knocked out by Wilder which is when Wilder decided to fight him, Chisora knocked Scott out and he does not punch that hard. Scott punches like a girl, so that makes Wilder happy. Scott is not ranked in the top 20...........Rumors are that Scott will make more money if he loses the fight. Wonder if he will fake a knock out or just lose a decision. Oscar wants a knock out, so I suspect Scott will have to fake one..............if true..........someone mentioned an investigation..............
