    Brodie looked done in his comeback fight the other month,but pulled it out the bag.
    Benn-Logan springs to mind,think it was for the cw title early in his career. Benn was down and looked like bein stopped,when he launched a big left hook off the ropes to spark Logan.

    Benn vs McLellan for me definitly

    but remember Earl was getting a battering and got up and KD'd Katsidas although he didnt win it was an amazing comeback for about the 8 seconds of Katsidas's count

    That for me makes it probably the biggest comeback ever in a British ring

    It's very recent, but...

    Froch would have lost that fight had he not KOed Taylor.

    Fair enough Taylor has stamina issues, but Froch was relentless in those last rounds and clinched it in the last. He got knocked down for the first time ever earlier on. I was surprised he had so much left at the end, to keep throwing and throwing. I think it deserves a mention.

    It was great on the radio too!! Superb and very memorable commentary.

    Doh...

    Ahh I get it now... seeing Gerald Mcclellan sent me off on one, thinking it not strictly having to be about British fighters (which it isn't). Apologies.

    On British shores, OK.

    I think people are forgetting (or are to young for) the ultimate one: Bonecrusher/Bomber Bruno; with a mention to Benn/Logan...

    Jones was pretty much beaten to a pulp twice by Laing; and both times came back to win in nine.

    Hence the phrase:

    Fool me once; shame on you! Full me twice; call me Kirkland and pass me some weed!
