Fights that would have different outcomes if 15 rounds

[Toffee]

Frank Bruno wouldn't have become a World Champion. I don't think he'd have made one more round against McCall.

I dig Badou + he seems like a great dude in the boxing sphere, but I kinda feel if fights were 15 rounds he'd still take half of those 15 rounds to start to really get to work. But yea in theory I agree, but in practice idk.

its definitely tricky to predict how they approach a fight differently if its scheduled for 15 rounds.
In the case of badou jack, Im not entirely sure what his trigger is to push the pace properly.

is it

a) He worries about stamina and only starts to push the pace when he is confident that he can maintain it throughout the rest of the fight.

b) He starts slow, chips away a bit to the body and only starts to turn it up if he feels that his opponent starts to slow down, be it his feet arent as quick anymore or his explosiveness starts to fade.

Im more inclined to believe its case b with badou jack, because he looks relatively fresh at the end of the fight. 15 rounds would benefit him if its b).

Lomancheko vs Lopez
(Even though Lopez rallied to get a late round after winning the first half, Loma was

Margirto vs Cotto 2
(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.)

Lomancheko vs Salido
( It's obvious Salido was on the verge of being stopped)

Broner vs Maidana
(People forget Broner start to rally late in the fight, not saying Maidana would lose, but not saying he would win)

Maidana vs Khan
(Khan would have lost more rounds or got knocked out)

Erm....Broner v Maidana? If anyone was in trouble it was Broner getting KOd if that went into a 13th round lol

How's the Margarito fight on there? It got stopped.

Hagler vs Leonard.

[KillaMane26]

Margarita was stopped inside of the distance.

I keep forgetting.... I keep thinking if they didn't stop fight knowing Antonio never quits

For some reason I always forget they stopped it cuz of his eye

I mentioned Broner cuz he fought hard the second half and was tagging Marcos. I think Maidana would have won, but no surprise if Broner pulled it out

Come on now, Broner had no chance.

Come on now, Broner had no chance.

Did he rally back in second half? Was he landing power shots on Maidana?

Even tho he lost it was his best performance imo.

Which reminds me of Andy Lee/Billy Joe Saunders. Andy Lee down twice in a round early but wins most of the rounds afterward. 2 more rounds Andy likely wins it. In fact, I thought he won anyway.

I gave that fight to Andy also.

I don't ever remember Broner coming back or anyone claiming that lol
