Greatest Rebound from a series of losses?

prospects?
whats the criteria?

steve robinson,kelvin seabrooks,jimmy ellis?

or someone like cuevas or terry norris?

 

Freddie Pendelton....

 

Marco Antonio Barrera losing to Junior Jones twice, and then his next step up in class he loses to Morales. Goes on to win world titles up at 126 and 130, and beating Morales twice in the process, and undefeated P4P entrant Prince Naz.

 

Iran Barkley. Suffered three defeats in a row to Duran, Nunn, and Benn. Two years later, in less than three months time, he wins the IBF Super Middleweight title and the WBA Light Heavyweight title, earning Comback of the Year honors for 1992.

 

Ellis is a great example.

Danny "Little Red" Lopez lost a bunch of fights one year and was thought to be finished as a prospect, then went on to become a long reigning champion a couple years later.

Lee Oma lost a lot of fights early in his career, then went on to become a leading HW contender.

 

Freddie Pendleton, Oleg Maskaev come to mind.

 

Max Baer had a heap of losses before going on a run to win the world title.

 

Billy Backus lost three fights in eight months, then three more over the next five years before winning the welterweight title from Jose Napoles.

Duran had that rough patch.

JOHNNY NELSON :good

 

Had about Schmeling?

Had his fair share of losses prior to scoring one of the greatest wins of all time.

 

Dick Tiger lost a load of early ones including 4 on the trot when he first arrived in England.

 

:good

 

Took the words right off me there, Johnny Nelson indeed

 

Johnny Nelson is regarded as a bit of a joke by some but he was damn effective and seems a thoroughly nice bloke as well.

Apparantly his autobiography is a brilliant and hilarious read, will have to check it out :good
