Best comebacks in boxing

Saman vs Humberto - 1995 fight of the year.

Probably before most of you on here were born...

 

Benn v McClellan. Benn did well to come back fromt that first round beatdown. Shame about the outcome tho.

 

Have I mentioned Quarry-Foster yet? Ok, well I'm mentioning it again. Check this fight out.

 

Which foster vs quarry fight

 

Top fights that I can remember were:

Froch v Taylor
Froch v Groves (after being outboxed in the first and having the mental strength to come back was epic)
Benn v McClellan
Eubank v Watson (being outboxed and then stopping Watson with one hell of a haymaker)
Hearns v SRL

 

Jerry Quarry v Mac Foster

 

I'd forgotten about Eubank vs Watson 2, that was an incredible comeback. Behind on all scorecards, punched himself out trying to take Watson out in the 11th round, just been dropped, gets up and the very next punch drops Watson, great, great round. Shame about the outcome, Watson was such a warrior in that fight.

So strange and tragic that both Benn and Eubank had these huge comeback from the brink wins that ended up with both of them and their opponents never being the same again.

Missing a few but just seen this. Relevant.

 

Foreman over Lyle

Corrales over Castillo

Mayweather over Maidana

Leonard over Hearns I

It's not one of the great comebacks but I do like watching Froch over JT...

 

Ramirez-Rosario II

 

Moore-Durelle 1.

McKinney-Ncita 1. McKinney looked like he was done, it appeared like he was quitting when he turned his back on Ncita and then went down.

Then he knocks out Ncita a minute later.

Epic round.

 

Ali was beating Foreman. He was landing the cleaner shots to the head all night, although the revisionist history would have you believing that he was taking a horrendous beating and losing until Foreman tired.

Spinks 2? Do you mean comeback in terms of career, as opposed to comebacks within a single fight?

 

To a lesser degree, Tua v Oquendo?
