I thought they started to phase them out after the first world war...It wouldnt have been universal straight away and Im guessing it would have changed on a country to country and state to state basis. I think Ive seen some 25 rounders scheduled in the 40's.
You could have made Most of Louis's title defenses 25 rounders. It would not matter, it would have ended before the tenth round in most cases.
Their 1st bout was the last title bout that was scheduled for 20 rounds. Also, another Louis title bout was scheduled for 20 rounds and that was against Bob Pastor in 1939.
Ahhh. The last 20round title fight. I knew the fight was of some significance apart from the comedic way big Abe feigned dismay after the fight was stopped
