    Name fights where a boxer is getting utterly dominated but bounces back to knock his opponent out. Where he snatches vicotry from the jaws of defeat.

    Some of my favs:

    Benn - McClellan
    Marciano - Walcott 1     (Rocky had been dropped in the first round, and in my opinion was getting outboxed until the thirteenth).

    Castro-JDJ is my favorite, no doubt.

    Mike Weaver KO 15 John Tate in 1980, and Leonard TKO 14 over Hearns in 1981.... Wicked stuff...

    Ward didn't land a SINGLE punch all night. It was like he was in a daze. Merchant was making fun of Ward saying he should be fined for not fighting. Then... BAM.

    Sanchez is on the canvas crying from a bodyshot. Literal tears.

    The ultimate late comeback has to be LaMotta/DauthuileII.

    Unlike Chavez/TaylorI, this fight had LaMotta needing a knockout in the last 10 seconds of a fight with the classic championship rounds in it.
