    Obviously, a fighter would have to make adjustments to their styles in each case but the 20 rounders would be a physical attribute not all boxers would achieve.

    Stamina must be one of the factors in a 20 round fight and also in a 6 round fight if your exerting more energy trying to knock each other out quicker.

    For my 20 round fighter (i will give mayweather a rest this time) and go for calzaghe. As much as he annoys me for ducking a few fighters (imho)
    i cant ignore his duracell battery fighting stamina and boxing skills.

    For my 6 rounder there are loads of oldies to choose from and current fighters but i got to go with tyson.
    He was built for 6 rounds with such great head movement with pendulam power shots its a beautiful thing.

    Who would be the best fighters at 20 rounds and the best at 6 rounds?

    Please give one answer for each and explain your choice..

    Thanks.
    if bxg had been 20 rounds Rocky Marciano would never be beaten not by Lewis or Louis or Ali or anybody as he would just hang in there tough as nails until they pissed their load and cried Uncle!
    Even though rocky would have been outweighed by all of those named he still was an undefeated fighter and there hasnt been any blueprint to beat him. Even though some might argue he would get destroyed by those guys, nevertheless he never lost.

    These modern times Cal is a good pick @imp. I'd have to give that category a little more thought. Probably Jofre in the marathon and Tyson in the sprint.

    Almost forgot. Interesting question.
    I remember calzaghe or his dad saying they never used weights or did any weight training and that impressed me as JC body is not the typical looking toned cut body especially as he looks to have such short arms, but the avoidance of the weights must have contributed to his stamina.

    Nowadays they run out of time. Just when they get the guy where they want him , ie in BIG TROUBLE, they run out of time.
    Pressure fighters often got the guy out of there in rd 13 or 14 after absorbing a lot of punishment themselves.
    Some good pressure fighters there.

    Apart from the cheating, if margarito defense was alittle better he wouldnt have had to have taken so much punishment but he seemed to enjoy it...even from shane.
