    If the fights were sheduled for 15 the fighters would train for 15 and pace themselves different too.
    But id agree with annonymous off the top of my head Hatton vs Collazo, Collazo would have taken that and also Andrade vs Bute, that KD looked like the lasting kind he wouldnt have recovered from between rounds!

    The ultimate 15 round fighter 2day would be Margarito i think

      You're probably right!!!!

      But at least they would've been awake, unlike the 12 round action of Valuev/Holyfield...

        DLH vs. Trinidad - If the fight was fifteen rounds, most likely DLH even if he cruised through 13, 14, and 15, would've had the points lead he needed to win.

            DLH isn't exactly known for great stamina and he was mostly running towards the end. I think Trinidad exposes his unengaging style even more with additional rounds.

              Great, great thread topic. Props to the thread starter.

              My pick goes to Andrade-Bute. We all know how that would have gone if it had a 13th round.

                That's very possible indeed.

                  How about 15 round fights that the outcome would've been different if it were only 12?

                  Like Duran/Hagler, or Hearns/Leonard I.

                    How about Hearns-Duran?

                      If ever there was proof that the triangle theory doesn't work in boxing. Damn those were some sick right hands, I think Duran thought he was still out of range. That one when he was stunned that put him to sleep .......
