    Maybe Gatti?

    Not sure if he recouped all that well but he went into "all out free swinging ape shet" mode after being hurt and near the brink of disaster.

    Joe Grim must be the obvious answer to this one.

    Matthew Saad Muhammed has the best I've personally ever seen.

    He'd certainly be the pinup of the 80's for this. The way he used to come roaring back after copping loads of punishment was his trademark at one time. It eventually caught up with him fast, but how could it not?

    Muhammad Ali recovered pretty damn well or at least was very good at acting like he wasn't hurt.

    I second Gatti, he had heart for sure.

    Hagler. Hearns dropped everything he had on him and he was only stunned momentarily.
