    Whether it be a cut, injury , being knocked down, overcoming deficit on scorecards etc.

    Archie Moore
    Bobby Chacon
    Danny Lopez
    Ali
    are two that come to mind watch Moore vs Yvonne Durelle coud be one of the alltime gut checks

    Watch Bobby Chacon vs Boza Ewards never say die and overcoming cuts knockdowns you name it.

    Danny little Red Lopez would be losing and suddenly get the KO

    Ali hurt or outgunned would find a way to win or survive the fight

    I think Gabe Ruelas fought on and won a fight despite having one of his arms broken.

    Kell Brook.

    Suffered a badly broken nose against Carson Jones where he couldn't breath and was swallowing gallons of blood. Came on strong in the final round to pull it out.

    Ruelas lost the broken arm fight. One of Joe Goosen's only mistakes was convincing Ruelas to keep fighting for several rounds after the elbow fracture, nearly ruining Gabe's career.

    Erik Morales
    Dody Boy Penalosa
    Jeff Fenech

    Buddy McGirt performed well in a number of fights with various injuries.

    JMM coming back from 3 knockdown deficit in the first round!

    Corrales's comeback vs Castillo is still awesome!

    JMM fo sure.

    To get fcked up by Pacquiao so badly (knocked down) yet compose himself and go onto box on par with him was phenomenal and get a draw/slight win

    and in their 4th fight he was yet again getting beaten up Broken nose everything going downhill then BAM KO.

    Rocky Marciano won his biggest matches by comeback KO, after getting the crap beaten out of him for most of the matches
