    Leonard convincingly loses to Manos de Piedra then immediately comes back and makes Duran say "No Mas".

    Maybe not the greatest, but Vitali comes up to my mind. He had some good wins after his loss to Lewis.......

    name me an ATG that lost their 1st fight...

    hopkins beat taylor both times ....public polls indicate that.

    hopkins loses to calzaghe...beats pavlik, loses to dawson, beats cloud - he was big underdog in these fights. loses to roy jones, goes on to defend title record times

    rafael marquez lost his pro debut
    bonecrusher smith lost his pro debut
    not ATG but world champions

    you can change the record books, but hopkins lost to taylor both times, no matter how bad you want him to be the winner, he lost

    Pacquiao should be mentioned because earlier in his Pro Career he was Knocked Out twice to become a 8 division champion...

    Also being Knocked out by Marquez to beat a dangerous big puncher in Rios and to top it off... If Pacquiao gets the win over Bradley in their rematch to become a Champion again, what a come back that would be.

    Manny Pacquiao of course, he was knocked out by Rustico Torrecampo then came back and dominated Marlon Carillo. When he was ko'ed by Medgoen Singsurat, he came right back literally 3 months later and destroyed the awesome Reynante Jamili. And then he was outboxed by Erik Morales and came back and destroyed Hector Velazquez. And who can forget the 10 minute face down icing he got at the hands of a 40 year old Juan Manuel Marquez, but even after waking up from a coma he came back and dominated Brandon "My Feet Are In Cement" Rios.

    Pac always beats guys up after he loses, the Bradley fight doesnt count, he really won that fight.:yep But how many fighters ever were pretty much knocked out cold 3 times in their careers and then came right back and dominated the opposition in grand fashion like Manny Pacquiao?:boxer
