    something that i always factor in fights in the ability for a boxer to try and recooperate for one minute between rounds.

    i have seen some miraculous things that happen between rounds, arturo gatti comes to mind and another poster has mentioned saad muhammad.

    any fighters that could come out a whole new fighter after sixty seconds?

    I'll mention Pryor towards the end of Arguello I before that one gets brought up.

    You can trust Panama Lewis; it was Peppermint Schnapps; Luis Resto, will back it up.....

    i think vargas may deserve mention after almost getting blown out by tito in the first round and then comming back to floor tito in the second.

    nigel benn against mccellan?

    Pryor was on illegal stimulants, thats how. Illegal stimulant increases a fighters adrenaline level to the point where they can take punches that under normal circumstances would knock them out. Panama lewis had pryor on them because he knew that arguello would land his best punches on pryor and that pryor needed something help him stay concious when they did land.

    Some of you guys might be able to help me with this one but I have a very vague memory of seeing an Asian fighter, possibly Korean, get knocked down 4 times in a round but comes back knock out the other bloke in either the next round or the round after.

    It was for a title...whether world or regional, it was some kind of title. I just cant recall who it was.

    Matthew saad muhammads comeback from the 8th round pounding that he recieved from yaqie lopez comes to mind, also the 8th round onslaught that mike weaver survived at the hands of gerrie coetzee

    I was going to pick Miricle Matt here as well. Plus his wars with Yaqui are so much fun to watch.
