#4 30-minute Ironman
Obviously, some Champions are used to fighting 25-minute bouts in a five round setting, but imagine two guys going at it for 30 minutes in one round. Just one round. There could be a 90-second break at the half way point in addition to two 30-second breaks at other intervals of the fight, but other than that, they would wage war for the remainder of the period.
It would require a serious amount of cardio and there are only a few fighters who would be able to pull it off successfully. The majority of people would go for the knockout early and in this kind of setting, that would indeed finish the fight as opposed to the world of professional wrestling where they'd continue on until the time limit has expired.
