    Ive got a new respect for Williams having seen that. I always considered him a bit of a joke, but thats something else.

    Julio cesar Chavez v Meldrick Taylor I (March 17th, 1990, voted fight of the decade) for the IBF (Taylor) & WBC (Chavez) 140 lb championship unification.

    2 top 5 p4pers going at it frantically in a fight that just got better & better.... Chavez was a good bit behind & needing a KO ging into rd 12, he was undefeated at 66-0 & regarded as the no1 p4p fighter in boxing, Taylor was also a young unbeaten fighter on the verge of something historic when... boom... a right hand stuns him, JCC follows up with a few more before a cracking right hand puts MT down, he gets up but is in no fit state to continue & the ref stops the fight with 2 seconds to go.

    Chavez would go on to 87-0 before his 1st blemish while Taylor was ruined as a boxer because of the brutal beating Chavez layed on him.

    Very historic fight & ATG comeback.

    Foreman's was the greatest comeback in sports history!
    After 10 years retired and in his 40's he lost every round to Moorer and then knocked himout with ONE punch.

    I remember watching that at the time, cracking KO.

    Shame there isn't a video with sound.

    Moore-Durelle I.

    Within the round, of course, there's Corrales-Castillo 1. Also, Shavers-Williams and McKinney-Ncita 1.

    Another great and dramatic comeback was Chacon-Limon 4. Chacon scored a KD at the end of the 15th, securing a two point round. He ended up winning the fight, and the title, by one point on the cards.

    Not sure about one punch.

    Moorer has said that he was out on his feet from the first 1-2, before the final 1-2.
