    Taylor vs. Pavlik I was probably one of the most dramatic I've ever seen. Pavlik was OUT, but came back to stop Taylor in brutal fashion.

    Jeff Harding vs Dennis Andries in their first encounter..Was losing on the cards going into the last round with only a knock out going to help the completely unknown ozzie. And yes he delivered..

    Tyson and Jeff Fenech were ringside.Fenech later wrote a piece in his book on how excited Tyson was with the come from behind win..Man you ozzie guys are tough he said.

    please don't remind me of that!

    to this day, i still don't know why graham went for the knockout.

    if he had kept boxing him, he would of won.

    stupid on the "bombers" part!

    is BY FAR the greatest example of this IN HISTORY... even better than Corrales vs Castillo... significantly better. The referee was actually moving in to stop the fight (which had been a slaughter) when Castro landed a haymaker out of the clear blue sky and turned the fight on its head. Absolutely bizarre and brilliant. Incredible, legendary fight, I've never seen anything to compare to that ending.

    Thompson has had some amazing comebacks, and Rothman has had some equally amazing heartbreaks.

    Even though Aaron Davis was ahead on two official cards against Mark Breland, the momentum was clearly in Breland's favor, to say the least. Davis's right eye was grotesquely swollen and it didn't appear the fight would go on much longer. Then Davis landed an overhand right out of nowhere and that was that.

    I don't know what the official cards were, but Earnie Shavers looked done against Roy Williams when he rallied to stop him.

    Some of my favorite comeback KOs are:

    Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo 1
    Julian Jackson-Herol Graham
    Jorge Castro-John David Jackson 1
    Mike Tyson-Francois Botha
    Kennedy McKinney-Welcome Ncita 1 (the fight looked OVER)
    Archie Moore-Yvon Durelle 1
    Mike Weaver-John Tate

    I loved Matthew Franklin(Saad Muhammad)'s win over Marvin Johnson in the rematch. I'm not sure of the official cards, Saad had a bad cut over his face but then unloaded about 100 shots in a minute and stopped Johnson and won the title.
    Ali was winning on the official scorecards, and deservedly so. He was countering Foreman silly with clean straight shots all night long.
