    One of the fights gets restarted after you have been KO'd, and you duly do the honours again!

    Ah. Sounds like Martinez-Cintron, except Sergio couldn't put Kermit down again.

    K, Good question ! On Jan.16,1925, the great Jack Delaney ko'd Tiger Flowers
    in the second round. Flowers wanted a return bout with Delaney. So on
    Feb.26,1925 at MSG,they met again.In the second round Delaney hit Flowers on the chin with a right hand flooring Flowers on his back, where the referee counted Flowers out. But Tiger Flowers corner claimed it was a "fast count",
    and fearing a riot by fans of Tiger Flowers, Jack Delaney agreed to continue the fight. In the fourth round Jack Delaney,hit Flowers again with a right cross and knocked Tiger Flowers cold,ending the fight. So Tiger Flowers was ko'd by Jack Delaney THREE times in TWO FIGHTS in 1925...Hope i answered your question...b.b.

    A sidenote : After the final knockout, Tiger Flowers graciously went to Jack Delaney's dressing room ,and said "Mr. Delaney,ah's convinced "! True...
