      Pac-Algieri.

      Algieri would have been out of the cage by round 14.

            if fights were 15 rounds then these guys would have a diff level of fitness and fight diff. maidana used to tire out after putiing it all on the line for 2-3 rounds for example. over 15 rounds maidana would have still saved those 3 rounds for the very last 3 and he would be more tired for those too.

            fury vs wilder 1, fur wouldnt be joking about mid 12th round thinking he had it in the bag.

              People have to factor in that if it were 15 rounds the fight would be totally different..But in Cotto-Margo 2 Margo was not making some great turn, in fact it would have only gotten worse for Margo as his eye was completely shut and his shots did not have the same effect nor was he landing as much as in the 1st fight.

                Great thread! So much slips my mind without just watching an old fight - that is when I can sit there and say "damn....they needed 15."

                Doesn;t always have to be a fight where one guy is assumed to be on the reeling in the latter stages. Sometimes there are fights where it looks like they are just barely warming up and the legendary action just getting started - maybe when you get two high IQ guys like Barerra-JMM, I wished that fight had gone 15 - Barerra wasn't at top form but looked like he could still go and had already knocked JMM down earlier. I think they both had just about started to figure out what to do and there were some great exchanges in the last part 3rd of the fight. IDK if there would have been a stoppage but they were both close to breaking through (scorecards ended up taking the fun out of it though)

                  Mosley knocks out De La Hoya once and possibly twice.

                  I’ll return when I’m less inebriated but I stand by that one or two.

                      Interesting call. I still don't know who would've won.

                      (Antonio was starting to apply pressure late fight, Cotto, after the first fight became a different fighter, I don't think he would have been mentally strong enough to survive to 15 that night.)
                      This fight was stopped by doctor and it didn't go 12 rounds. So it wouldn't have made a difference as a 20 round fight to be fair.

                      Also fuck MargaCHEATO

                      It is indisputable. I felt Loma won the 1st fight with all the dirty stuff from Salido and ref. Salido was literally RUNNING at times later in fight and wanted NOTHING to do with a rematch (for a reason).

                      Loma DEFINITELY wins and probably by STOPPAGE.

                      Maidana also landed his 2nd KD during one of Broner's "rallies" so that must be remembered also

                      Maidana definitely wins that. No question

                      My picks:

                      GGG-Jacobs

                      Jacobs was coming on and that fight was already very close as it happened

                      Jose Luis Castillo-Floyd 1

                      Floyd probably won 4 or 5 of the first 6 rounds and JLC really took over. Floyd loses that in a 15 round fight although its worth mentioning that Floyd did injure his shoulder during the fight

                      Ward-Kovalev 1

                      Kovalev won the 1st fight BUT Ward was coming on strong and if the fight had been 15 rounds I think Ward rightfully gets the Win
