    I'd name Mercer-Lewis, Carter-Bassett, Folley-Bonavena, Suh-Ramos...Johnson-Charles, Stable-Scott.

    10 round fights are great to watch. My favourite distance maybe. What 10 round fights would you name?

    Lewis W10 Mercer is the 1st fight I thought of

    The three Gatti vs. Ward fights were good 10 rounders

    Ward vs. Augustus was good

    Both Gatti vs. Robinson fight

    Both Dempsey-Tunney fights. It's a shame they were just for 10 rounds..if they were for 15, Tunney would have stopped the Mauler and enhanced his image..maybe even would have negated a rematch and the Long Count..that would have been good only from Tunney's own perspective..boxing lore would have been deprived however.

    To answer your question McGrain, I'm partial to Bonavena-Frazier I, Bonavena-Chuvalo and Griffith-Tiger II.

    Ken Buchanan-Donato Paduano was a 10 rounder..a brilliant masterpiece of the Scot's.

    Marvin Hagler - Marcos Geraldo
    Oscar Muniz - Jeff Chandler
    Renaldo Snipes - Eddie Mustafa Muhammad (not a great fight, but two of the more interesting characters).
    Barry McGuigan - Juan Laporte
