Holyfield has often expressed that if there was just one more round, he could have knocked out Bowe. Do you think this was possible, or is his heart simply too big? What if the fight went 15 instead of 12?
Just Holyfield's pride and ego talking. You have a 12 rounder, you prepare and fight for a 12 rounder. Same for 15 rounds. Judging by the way the fight went, especially the last 3 rounds, it's unlikely any extra rounds would've done him any good.
No way it would have helped Holyfield! I see it other way around! Holyfield proved the point by going the distance! After fight he said he would like to retire! Dose not seem like guy who thinks he could ko other guy had it went one more extra round!
Yeah. He said several times that if only he had one more round, he would have knocked Bowe out. I think it's another case of his ego, to be honest.
Holy might have stopped Bowe if their '93 rematch was 15 rounds. However, Bowe might have stopped Holy if their first fight was 15 rounds.
