    What were the biggest “round survivings” in boxing? For example this weekend Kovalev just survived round 8. Fury survived the beginning of round 12 against Wilder.

    Who did it best?

    Nigel Benn surviving Round 1 against McClellan, Benn himself said when he was punched through the ropes he felt his neck ligaments stretch and he went out.

    He came around when his back hit the apron and he climbed back in to the ring and somehow survived the rest of the round against an absolute killer and then went on to have a great second round.

    Amazing to watch.

    Had the "3 knockdown rule" been in effect for JMM/Pac, that would have been the best win of the 00's for a fighter.
