Why boxing experts think winning in close fight is better than KO someone in 1

Win in close wars=you have better resume that opponent is ATG win in 1 round=that guy is bum and =doesnt make you better

I think a beat down from start to finish are the best type of wins. Mike Tyson vs Alex Steward. This type of win shows completely dominance.

When a fighter is in a fairly competitive fight, then scores a knock-out. I don't think they are showing complete dominance. Terrence Crawford was not dominating Kell Brook.

A win in a close fight, kind of shows that the fighters abilities have been extended. They can prove many things with this type of win. Can they adapt the game plan, can they endure or stick to a game plan etc

So all in all, different types of wins displays specific attributes.

A true elite fighter must be good in both KO and decision. You can't KO all opponents. Some fighters have granite chin. I think the best way to win is 12-0. You can show all of your skills with this way.

YEA but for some reason won in tough fight=makes your opponent better than he is actually and makes your resume better and that opponent is mytholized more and your resume if you beat someone in 1 round = he is bum

You have to put NAMES to the opponents.

A win is a win in almost every case.

Nobody says that. If fighters are evenly matched like Spence/Crawford, and Crawford nicks it in a 12 round thriller than it is meaningful. However if Spence loses all his next fights in KO1 defeats, than that Crawford win gets less credit.
