    What are the best examples of a boxer getting through rough patches in the early rounds only to turn the tables in the mid/late rounds?

    Archie Moore vs Yvon Durelle is probably the best example ever
    Vitali Klitschko vs Corrie Sanders
    Erik Morales had to eat some scorching combinations in the early rounds of his first fight with Manny
