    Lol Cotto vs Margarito was mainly the reason I thought about this thread. I also feel like a healthy (eye) margarito would have Cottos number in a 15 rounder. I'm not a margo fan but that's what I believe.

    You make me laugh, kid. You dump on us for starting more Cotto threads, but you turn around and start THIS shit, knowing that you and all the Margafucko groupies will jump on it, and cry about how the fight would've been different if it had been 15 rounds instead of 12.

    Fact is, Cotto kicked Margafucko's ass to the point where the fight was stopped. End of. You and your fellow groupies can cry about the fight all you want. It's not gonna change the outcome. The more you go on and on about it, the more bitter and ignorant you all sound. Gotta love it.

    Ahhhhhhh..... revenge is sweet.

    Cotto/Margarito II, instead of a 9th round TKO or 12 ROUND UD, Cotto would have won by a devastating 14th round TKO and then Margarito would look like John Wayne right now rocking the eye patch

    Too many.

    Cotto would be a disaster over 15 actually. Always tired after 8. Khan too and Ward today.

    All programmed to go 36 minutes, but 12 rounders are crap compared to the olden days.

    Boxing shouldn't be a sprint, it should be man against man for a good hour and that's what 15 rounders are.

    I'd love to have 15-rounders back. But that's probably largely a function of what we grew up on. I'm sure the old-old timers thought the sport was going to hell when fights were shortened to 15.

    Marvin Hagler was a great 15 round fighter,mind you he was
    not a bad 12 round fighter, for those that could last with him.?
    SLR v Hagler, those extra 3 round's would have been to much
    for SRL.?

    Leonard-Hagler was won at the negotiating table as much as it was won in the ring. Hagler needed the fight more than Leonard did, and he acceded to Leonard's team's demands for the conditions of the fight, including a bigger ring, bigger gloves, and 12 rounds instead of 15. All of those factors helped Leonard. I suspect that if those three things had been decided differently, Hagler would have won the fight.

    Hatton would have been stopped by Collazo and probably outpointed by Magee

    My apologies. I meant to say JLC vs Mayweather Jr. Also how about MAB vs Morales.

    And it was a great way of separating the good from the great. The real top-notchers could all do 15 rounds. The authorities would never revert to 15 rounders, though, in case a tragedy happened in rounds 13-15.

    I have told you many times that I was rooting for Cotto. I have never liked nor rooted for Margarito because I dislike him as a person and a fighter. What part of that don't you understand? As far as the inspiration yeah I think Cotto would lose because he seemed to slow down a lot in the 2nd fight. If Margarito had a healthy eye he would of still lost in 12 because Cotto was sticking and moving.. but 15 IDK if he has the stamina for that... Either way I'm glad Cotto won.. Something you don't seem to understand lol.

    If it were still 15 rounds then you could say boxers would train for 15 rounds, so the fighters that fade in the last 2 or 3 rounds of a 12 rounder would probably do the same fade the last 2 or 3 rounds of a 15 round fight.
