    Battered and bloodied Jeff “The Hitman” Harding, behind on all 3 cards, TKO round 12 over Andries to win the WBC LH Title - a first for an Australian.

    Addendum: Leotis Martin v Sonny Liston

    Rocky Graziano made a career of it. He was behind on points in his 3rd bout with Tony Janiro, his first fight with Red Cochrane and his bout with Charlie Fusari and pulled out all 3 with a 10th round KO.

    Also, Alexis Arguello v Ruben Olivares

    Mike Weaver against John Tate gets my vote. It was out of the blue. 1 shot stiffened his joints.

    Just realised I'd never seen that fight, so went and watched the last couple rounds. Wow, Harding was possessed. Great shout out to Andries as well.
