That depends on the opponent. Bruno had no issue with stamina beating Brown, Bugner and Williams.Quote:

JCC Jr. In some of his recent fights
Disagree on Foreman. If u throw those types of shots as a heavyweight, u become exhausted. It was more an issue of style than stamina problems.
Some guys that I thought had stamina issues:
1) Tommy Morrison
2) Michael Moorer
3) Oscar against elite opposition
4) Frank Bruno
5) Jermain Taylor
Heavyweights with stamina problems >
* Sonny Liston
* Jerry Quarry
* Jimmy Ellis
* Jose Luis Garcia
* Tony Doyle
* Al 'Blue' Lewis
* George Foreman
* Earnie Shavers
* Duane Bobick
* Gerrie Coetzee
* Kallie Knoetze
* Ron Lyle
Bruno had stamina issues and the top fighters knew they just had to take him to the later rounds.
The old Tyson after jail had stamina issues, he was finished after round 5 against Holyfield.

How is Foreman in here???
Earnie Shavers A#1...just like Frank Bruno way too tight and loading up on every single punch
Shavers
Jermaine Taylor
Tyson in general had stamina issues he only KO'd 6 guys after round 5 for his entire career and only ONCE did he stop someone past the 7th round. His record of fights that went longer than 5 rounds was 11 (6 KO's)-4 and for a guy sporting such an impressive record 50 (44 KO's)-6-0 that seems to show that if you could last with Tyson then you had a far better chance of beating him because he would tire outQuote:

Groves, Degale, Khan, Foreman, Bruno and the great "Ambling Alp" Primo Carnera!
Btw, isn't it a bit unfair to say Shavers? I remember him not only doing 15 rounds with Ali, but Ali goading him into making the pace and punching himself out. And in his next fight, he went the distance with Larry Holmes. Just cos he had loads of early KO's doesn't necessarily mean he had no stamina.
Tucker's right hand was broken. Tyson's being a pressure fighter also factors into that. Bonecrusher shook Mike late...shame he didn't just let his hands go sooner. After prison Mike simply didn't put in the cardio at all.Quote:

Credit, Imp. Mobile device is slow on the uptake
Holfield had stamina issues against Bowe 3 and Moorer 1. It must have been the heart problems at the time.
