    who would the 15 rounds suited more?

    i think calzaghe, he didn't come with a strategy working of the cuff, freak stamina and started slow because he sort of adapted to the style of his opponent as the rounds went on therefore being much better in the sound half of the fight like vs kessler

    Dawson got the best of each exchange. As I said he hurt Adamek with a punch and a body shot in the 11th and 12th.

    There would be no dispute over Chavez Vs. Taylor.

    good call. giving a few rounds here and there to holyfield would have been harder with 3 extra rounds...over 12 yeah, they figure giving him 3 rounds he didn't deserve is passable. but giving him let's say 5 or 6 extra rounds he didn't deserve...that's pushing it.

    yeah, would've been interesting to see how the fool that had chambers vs dimintrenko a draw would have it after 15, probabily found some way of giving the same score

    I thought about this one also but I can't say it with absolute certainty. Those 2 would trade rounds all the time and just when you thought one guy was gaining the edge the other guy would turn it up and take control again for a moment. I can't say for sure that Barrera wouldn't have sensed that he was losing the fight and turned it up

    for me (sorry bill) i had barrera winning CLEARLY. however, morales, as usual, really turned it on during the championship rounds and he'd have taken the split over 15

    For you to say this stupid **** makes me believe you didn't see the 12th round of the Williams-Margarito fight.


    Williams dominated the 12th Round after taking Margarito's best shots in the 11th. Margo was clearly gassed, and had nothing left. Williams could have ****ed around and stopped Margarito if the fight had gone 12.

    You could almost argue any fight that was set for 12 rounds.

    What if guys that got KOed early on because they expended a bit too much energy.

    What if they had to pace themselves different?

    15 rounds should still be.
