What are some of your favourite? this is where the fight just begins and the guy gets up and keeps fighting despite just being put on the canvas! I'll start..... Cassius Clay Vs Henry Cooper (Clay is saved by the bell and Angelo Dundee's purported corner strategies are always a debated topic.) Joe Frazier Vs Muhammad Ali (This is probably my favourite from Frazier I have seen this from all kinds of angles and I'm always impressed.) Larry Holmes Vs Earnie Shavers 2 (How did he get back up from that?) Chris Eubank Vs Joe Calzaghe (Calzaghe knocks Eubank down early and is in for a hard fight and long night after that.) Michael Katsidis Vs Graham Earl (Take your pick from this one!) Tyson Fury Vs Deontay Wilder 1 (The last round had me on my feet watching that!) Michael Conlon Vs Leigh Wood ( An early shock knockdown turns into an all out banger)

James Toney vs Michael Nunn Donald Curry vs Milton McCrory Evander Holyfield vs Lou Savarese What have all these fights got in common ? some of the best left hook knockdowns you'll ever see especially from Curry and Holyfield. Other than the obvious Frazier one, show me a better thrown left hook than those 2 where both fighters got up ? incredible. Lennox Lewis vs Shannon Briggs = Lewis landed the most perfect right hand you'll ever see in the 5th round, and somehow Briggs got up amazing heart shown. Robert Duran vs Iran Barkley = The 11th round knockdown a series of beautifully timed right hands from Duran floors Barkley heavily, he comesback to go to war with Duran again in the 12th round. Mike Tyson vs Jose Ribalta = the 1st knockdown i can't remember what round, but Tyson landed a beautiful right hand to the body followed by an amazing right uppercut that almost took Ribalta's head clean off. How in the world Ribalta got up from that and almost went the distance i don't know. Salvador Sanchez vs Pat Cowdell = Sanchez in the last round flattens Cowdell with a perfect right hand, Cowdell is flat on his back looking up at the lights it looks like it's all over and somehow Cowdell got up. Larry Holmes vs Renaldo Snipes = Snipes lands a devastating right hand, Holmes gets up and staggers into the corner. But then somehow manage tos end the round in better shape than Snipes. Micky Ward vs Arturo Gatti 1 = Ward lands his famous left hook to the body that i believe broke Gatti's ribs ? Gatti is on the floor in agonizing pain, gets up and then we witness one of the most amazing rounds of all time. Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel Marquez 1 = The 3rd knockdown when Marquez's gloves are over his face and it looks like Marquez is down and out. Somehow Marquez gets up from the 3rd knockdown and manages to win a majority of the rounds after that. Larry Holmes vs Mike Weaver = Holmes's famous uppercut after looking in desperate trouble. Oscar De La Hoya vs Ike Quartey = The 12th round knockdown by ODLH on a classic left hook, Quartey fights back bravely along the ropes in an amazing 12th round. Michael Spinks vs Eddie Mustafa Muhammad = I can't remember the exact round, but Spinks lands his Spinx Jinx and drops Muhammad heavily. Not quite sure how Muhammad got up and survived for 15 rounds.
You guys already know this one, but Foreman vs Lyle had some pretty epic knockdowns. Near the end of the first round, Foreman was nailed by a strong overhand right which staggered him badly. But he made it out of the round and was able to recover sufficiently by the start of the 2nd round to continue fighting. Foreman was again floored twice in the 4th round but came back to win the fight in the 5th round by peppering Lyle with a series of 10-20 unanswered blows. After this fight, nobody could doubt that Foreman indeed had the heart of a lion. So in total that was: Foreman shaken badly and floored twice by Lyle Lyle floored twice by foreman, and the final one was a KO This content is protected
the first one from this clip, who was that fighter? I tried finding him once but Louis had so many fights and not all of the names pulled up pictures, obviously the second one is Galento This content is protected
Mike Tyson vs Jose Ribalta is a fight that is much more famous for Tyson's high number of body shots than the knockdown. This content is protected
