    I do remember a rally later in the fight for Ancient Archie Moore against Yvonne Durell.. It was one of the more memorable ones i can retrace....

    Weaver against Tate. He was way behind on the cards before finishing him in the 15th.

    Leonard Hearn's 1

    LaMotta - Dauthille is a classic

    Jeffries - Corbett 1

    Willard - Johnson

    Possibly Greb - Walker

    Marciano Walcott.

    As for Greb Walker, it was a one sided match, Greb or Walker did not stage any type of comeback.

    if im not mistaken Hagler was behind on two of the judges scorecards after the 12 in his fight with Duran and he cameback to win the fight.

    Chacon-Limon IV i dont know what were the scorecards but i think Chacon was behind and he pulled out the fight with a knockdown in the 15 round.

    No LaMotta/DauthilleII is the classic.;)

    Like you suggest though, it was the ultimate come from behind fight; Chavez/TaylorI before Chavez/TaylorI only in the proper championship rounds.

    (LaMotta losing the fight, wins in the final 10 seconds to those unenlightened)

    Greb-Walker was far from a one sided fight .... Walker pounded the **** out of him for the first five rounds and othrs after were give and take ....
