    Donovan Ruddock is a decent shout.

    See his fights with Mike Tyson (2), Bonecrusher Smith, and Tommy Morrison.

    Ever seen him KD'd vs Byron Mitchell? He was hurt pretty bad. However, his recovery skills are infact, great, he came back the same round and KO'd Byron.

    JMM's a great choice.

    The rare times Floyd's been hurt, he's recouped very quickly.

    Bradley took that ridiculous shot from Holt, and got up like it never happened.

    Calzaghe was gone for a few seconds but just as quickly he came to.

    Stoppage was a bit shitty though.

    Cotto has good recovery ability as well. I remember the Torres fight, i though he was a goner for sure. Also, Corely had him on ***** street and he bounced back from that well.

    I disagree, he was fighting shitty finishers. Any elite fighter would had laid him on his back in those two situations.

    Jmm is amazing at that. Going into the wrong corner though is hilarious.

    Yeah good ones. I got to mention Maidana also. I haven't seen many people recover from a liver shot in the first round and make it a close fight. Except Auturo Gatti of course
