    I'll start with this one:

    Hector Carrasquilla was hot prospect with 11-0 (11 KOs) record, and his opponent
    Soo-Hwan Hong was in SERIOUS trouble in round 2 when he was knocked down 4 times.

    However, Korean fighter came back in the very next round and dropped Carrasquilla for the full count.

    Add your fights.

    Marquez Paquiao deserves a mention and Froch Groves was a great comeback from a fighter who looked out on a few occasions even if the ending was a bit unsatisfactory. I think the original post takes some beating.

    Not so much knockdowns but Hearns was bashing the granny out of Barkley prior to the stoppage

    There's also Marquez/Pacquiao one, with it's three knockdowns in the first stanza.

    Marciano Walcott was a good example, Walcott dropped the rocky and was ahead in points until rocky landed a murderous overhand knocking the champ out.

    Foreman moorer was another one where foreman was losing until he landed on poor moorer.

    Though he wasnt knocked down liston took some savage hits from Cleveland williams, liston even said he won those fights because he could take a beating better than the big cat

    "Williams can hit as hard as me, but he can't take it like I can".

    Pfft, I already threw out a great comeback involving Chiquita and didn't get any props for it... :p

    Gonzalez/Cabajal one is definitely in my top 5 favorite fights of all time. What a classic.

    Well, you certainly deserve those props for the Gonzales bout that you listed...it rivalled the Carbajal bout for sheer come from behind excitement IMO...just think, Humberto figured in both of those bouts...I'm glad he got out of the game with some of his marbles.
