Emanuel Augustus had some special powers of recovery and took a lot of unnecessary shots because I think he enjoyed it
You put Morales at their level? I liked Morales because when he got hurt he would start throwing bombs back. Not sure if that's the same as the OP is asking.
Oh yeah, Morales came back at you and fought fire with fire no matter who you were. Did Morales ever get off the deck to win a fight?
Holmes' answer to Shavers' punch is great recovery abilities. Today (probably to the surprise of many) I would mention Canelo. He never looked to me like he was close to being knocked out, and he fought from Floyd, to Golovkin to Kovalev and Bivol. On the other hand, I don't know how well Canelo's chin has been hit-tested, as it would have been tested in the fight with Beterbiev, if the fight happened RIGHT NOW (Beterbiev from the fight with Bivol).
Yeah. I missed it when it played. Imagine, that fight was on HBO After Dark. They fought on a Friday night. I was so pissed. I just got a new job and I had to work swing shift on Friday. I couldn't believe they showed that fight on a Friday. That fright would be a $90 PPV today. Man I miss the good ol days.
