    We can have fun, cut off famous fights at ten rounds, and check the cards to reveal alternate outcomes. But if all title fights in history had been scheduled for ten rounds we’d have different ways of preparing, different strategies, and certainly different outcomes.

    Some, like Tate-Weaver, seem easy to call. Others, especially involving elite fighters, not so much.

    Blimey, so he does. Wonder if any more of Alis fights are that close early?

    Great post. Few of those are pretty much changing history.

    Ain't enough LSD in the world to fix a 90 minute Young/Ali round.

    James J Jeffries v Fitz?
    Was Fitz leading in at least one fight?

    If I remember correctly, he was also behind on points against Ron Lyle too. So that's another loss.
    I also feel he loses the last match against Norton.

    So that's at least three title fights he loses.

    You would have a great many draws, not from the fights listed. Just saying.

    Maybe the fights would be at a faster pace. Who knows. If title fights were 4 rounds can you imagine the pace?
