Biggest Career Turnaround?

“Sir-Cheato”

 

Yeah that loss to Fury ended the hype.
Turn his show upside down.

 

Glen Johnson.

From the tough out for everyone to a world champion and even a low key money and name guy for opponents. All his real success came after he already had 10+ losses.

 

Remarkably fixed Serge!

 

You're right. Ward's career was as amazing as it was improbable. Good call.

 

Robinson Castellanos
Also known as Robin Hood. He started his career with a stellar 10-10 record.
He then went on a 11 fight tear which earned him an undeserved world ranking and a solid win over the once fantastic but now ageing Celestino Caballero.
Rene Alvarado put an end to that run by stopping Castellanos in the 9th.
Castellanos returned 8 months later with a spectacular upset over the fast rising Ronny Rios. Castellanos followed this up with a win over once great Rocky Juarez. Juarez himself was turning his career around with wins over Antonio Escalante and Rene Alvarado, the latter who ended Castellanos´ win streak.

Castellanos was awarded an interim title shot vs Oscar Escandon. Escandon KO´d Castellanos in the 7th.
But Castellanos wasn´t done yet as in his next fight he upset the now 35 year old Yuriorkis Gamboa via KO in the 7th.
For his efforts, Castellanos was awarded a title shot vs Jezzrel Corrales. Corrales ended up scraping by with a close TD.

A year later in Russia, Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov put an end to the now 36 year old Castellanos´ fantastic career by stopping him

I absolutely loved the way his career unfolded. Kept getting stopped and yet returned with bigger and bigger wins.
