    15 rounds at middle.
    I tried to think of the craziest fight that I could come up with...well here it is...
    Is it possible that the immortal Ketchel could get kayoed?
    Who and why?

    Lausse wins this IMO.

    I think Ketchel lasts the distance as he was such an inhumanly tough guy and showed in his career that he could take an enormous amount of punishment and keep on coming strong. But his punches were just so telegraphed and wide that Lausse would beat him to the punch most of the night with his shorter, crisper punches.

    Eduardo knew how to fight at a distance and pick his shots, while Stanley just came in with no regard to defense whatsoever and would have been flailing away at Eduardo who would have side-stepped and avoided most of what was thrown his way. And even when Stanley got through with something which he inevitably would, Eduardo had an excellent chin and was a very durable guy himself.

    Lausse UD Ketchel in a brutal fight.
