    I'm bored and stuck in a room on a 14 day quarantine thanks to covid-19 so I've been on YouTube watching a lot of late 80's / early 90's, British, German and Murican classic cards that I attended or watched as a yoof

    One of the things that stands out for me is the amount of late comebacks from fighters that looked destroyed or so far behind on points that there should have been no hope. Just watched Eubank V Watson 2 which was a great fight with an amazing finish (if you forget about the terrible Watson tragedy)

    What are the most dramatic, unlikely fight turnarounds you can remember? Post YouTube's if you have em

    Unbelievably I have never watched it. I ignored it at the time because I thought JMM was shot to sh1t and that he would get comprehensively spanked. Then I just never got round to watching for whatever reasons

    Great one thanks
