Was Castro-Jackson a better comeback win than Corrales-Castillo?

    :admin****ing hell he looked done for.Never seen that. I would agree it's a bigger comeback than Corrales as that fight was pretty even, although Diego did looked ****ed. I also don't like the way he spat his gumshield to buy time.
    One comeback that can almost be compared, although he wasn't taking this kind of beating is Jacksons one punch KO of Herol Graham. Jackson looked pretty woeful that night. Remember staying up as a kid to watch it and Graham was on easy street. Suddenly he was fast asleep . " And this is what we were afraid of " exclaimed the dismayed commentator as Herol took a nap.

    I remember watching the Castro fight and waiting for the ref to stop him or the corner to pull him out.I couldnt belive it when he came back like that best comeback ive ever seen.

    Best commentator soundbite ever. And what a turnaround. Probably the most perfect KO ever IMO.

    And also the most pointless count i've ever seen . What on earth was that ref doing ? What did he think Herol was doing biding his time ?

    No, there were smaller and it happen before that fight. I am pretty sure it was TNF. The ref jumped in and didn't see the hook coming. I know TNF has dvd's out for famous knockouts by years, but I can't remember what year it was either. I am going to make some calls to my old school buddies that use to box and hopefully one of them will remember. This is killing me that I can't remember, but it was such a long time ago.

    Me and some others were talking about pointless counts the other night. Surely refs should get hauled over the coals for that, all they are doing is holding up urgently needed medical attention. Check out the count for Ottke v Mundine - the most absurd thing I've ever seen in my life!
