    Weaver (Tate) and Briggs (Liakhovich) were the first two that came to mind.

    Maybe John Ruiz being allowed to keep the WBA title he lost via unanimous decision to James Toney when Toney failed the post-fight drug test.

    Ruiz walked out of the ring without the title, then had it handed back a couple weeks later.

    Froch was a mile behind but gradually froch started grinding him down .Taylor went back to his corner in the eighth with a look of horror on his face he realised that.froch would not stop and he was running out of steam .Froch was like a machine in those late rnds hunting Taylor down the crowd couldn't believe what they were watching .Froch wasn't the greatest boxer but my god he was as hard as nails physically and mentally .
