Wee see boxers today empty their tank by the 12th round. Which fighters of today would last 15?
Can today's fighters last 15 rounds?

Morales could probably go 15.
Margarito could probably go 15.
Rafael and Juan Marquez could probably go 15.
They all spar a lot of rounds in training and morales and the Marquez bro's train at 12000+ feet of altitude.Comment

I think that there is a few that could... But I think that fighting 15 rounds would just make fighters take it easier on themselves on the earlier rounds and by consequence more boring for the fans...IMO with less rounds in a fight, I think that fighters would go at it harder and more explosive...Do you imagine that instead of 12 rds of 3mins we had 1 round with unlimited time...that would warranty a KO in every fight. But then it would be nothing more than a street fight...

Chris Byrd-The only guy above 160 in my opinion.
Erik Morales
Bernard Hopkins
^ Two guys who train an insane amounts for even the smallest of fights, these guys are warriors and should make anyone proud truly boxing greats.
Cory Spinks-Always keep his cool and always in cruise mode, I think he might be able to last the whole 15 due to him being calm a lot and dictating a decent pace.
Thats is about it in my book
Runner ups:
Floyd Mayweather
Diego Corrales
Winky Wright
Juan Manuel Marquez
their really is only a few fighters who stand out in my mind who could last the whole 15.Comment
