Id rather you didn’t talk. Let the clips speak for themselves
Where the heck is Corrales/Castillo round 10 from 2005? That was the best comeback in a round that I have ever seen.. That should have made this list.. That was one of the best fights I have ever seen. On par with Gatti/Ward fights. And where is Gatti/Ward round 9????
Come back knock out? More like come back knock downs, understand proper English and grammar.
@@sharpthingsinspace9721 Corrales was knocked down by Castillo twice in the 10th round. After the second time that Castillo knocked Corrales down Corrales got back up and proceeded to TKO Castillo with a flurry of punches. English is also my second language. I do well enough for people to understand me.
@@gertpacu3926 in your rebuttal you said “knock down”not KNOCKOUT” good god. Your title in the video is “KNOCKOUT”
I'm 70, so I'm biased for the older fights from the 60's and 70's. The fighters would fight anybody without delays. You had the fighters themselves, with Howard Cosell going nuts at ringside. The best.
So would fighters from the 40's and 50's Like Graziano and Zale and Barney Ross....Just as good or better than the fighters from the 70s they just didn't have the media coverage.
@@danielbrown3461 you're absolutely right. My point was that fighters of today don't hold a candle to the ones you and I are talking about.
The fighters "champions" of today only have to fight twice a year and they make about 6-7 million after taxes....why fight more? Plus the fighters of today know more about brain trama....they didn't in the old days.
Gatti was something else RIP,Sabri knockout was very well deserved,it aint over till it’s over brother.
Damn, Tommy and Razor were throwing bombs.
3:50 love watching Maxwell drop that showboating Frenchman.
Never get tired of the Povetkin left upper cut. Whyte was KTFO but it's listed as a TKO, lol.
Me either. I knew he wouldn’t prevail in the rematch, but what a heroic win . Retire a warrior.
@@geraldfriend256 Cheers Gerald!
Any time the ref doesn’t complete the ten count its a tko! I know that because that very fight made me think the same thing. If thats not a ko. Wtf is? Its a technicality in the rules and really doesn’t make sense. Its out dated from when guys had to start fighting the second they got up from a knockdown.
@@CoreyT127 Cheers Corey! What punch that was to absolutely ragdoll a big brute like Whyte.
Arturo Gatti had some epic fights.
Castillo-Corrales and andy lee-jackson nice comeback kos.
Foreman v Lyle is the most brutal sports event I've ever seen.
Yeah, the other day I told people I was riding bikes with that Foreman vs. Lyle is a real boxing match that's comparable to a Rocky movie boxing match.
I was over the moon for Sam maxwell brilliant heart to come back and win
That Morrison Ruddock comeback KO was epic!
I've never seen a fighter showboating and mocking his opponent and said to myself "I hope _this_ guy wins." Any time they start taunting, mocking, or showboating, I instantly turn against them and hope they lose.
why tho? it’s not that deep😂
Ezra Sellars v Carl Thompson. Back and forth with knockdowns a plenty.
The irony that Garcia suffered his first defeat from the same body punch.
Gatti will always be one of my favorite fighters. RIP
Froch is a throwback telephone booth brawler. Very hard to beat
I have a lot respect🫡 for fighters that can make a comeback ina fight n still come out on top🏆true definition of true warriors/fighters, great perfect examples why you should neva QUIT neva GIVE UP n just KEEP GOING‼️
Fury was hadly on the brink of defeat aft er the Cunningham knockdown. He literally got right back up and punished him for it.
Wow Gatti took some shots in his career
Great! I love your films! ❤
The greatest fight of all time occurred in 1976 and it was Foreman vs Ron Lyle!
That was a good fight, knock downs... But, no techknique at all. It's my opinion. Just brut strength, no boxing skills in that fight, for me.
They literally looked like Rocky vs Apollo just throwing power punches with no style whatsoever. Great fight
Probably why it was on here!
Closer than some of these examples, but Diego Corrales deserves an honorable mention. He got knocked down 2 times and had a point deducted for spitting out the mouthpiece, all which happened in the 10th round, only to come back and knock out Castillo.
It deserved top spot.
you can quite clearly hear - stop it, stop it, stop it- at the Forman's fight
The greatest fight I ever saw lasted less than three rounds: Hagler-Hearns.
yeah - that was crazy. Have you seen Foreman v Lyle?
You should watch Corrales VS. Castillo.
I use to think that until I saw lyle vs foreman.
@@boxybrown6900 Watch Corrales VS. Castillo 1.
Rocky Graziano and Tony Zale....They told Hagler and Hearns to hold their beer. Artouro Gatti and Micky Ward...better than Hagler Hearns.
After pride comes the fall.
The best comeback KO was Eubanks vs Watson 2
Watching Meldrick Taylor get blatantly cheated and no one blinks is still psychotic to me. The bell would have rung before he could have walked Meldrick off the ropes, his standing up should have been the win. One of the most criminal, embarrassing moments in sports history. From a sport that is notorious for it.
Watching Taylor get hit until he died on his feet or on the canvas would've been criminal. Fifteen seconds was long time for a defenseless fighter.
@Salieri47 at the time the fight was called there was 2 seconds left, you didn't watch that fight. He was on his feet at 8, he waved his hand at 2 seconds. All he had to do was walk Meldrick off the rope and the bell goes. Watch when Steele waves the fight off, the clock reads 0:02. It was one of the most criminal moments in sports history. Defending Chavez is ok, but he got his ass whooped for 11 rounds and we all watched who the better fighter was. For 33 minutes. For a minute and a half Chavez looked decent. And it still took the ref to clear that win for Julio.
@@bobvylan7215 meldick fanboy still mad about the stoppage. He has to resort to wild, unsubstantiated charges that Mr. Steele is a criminal. One more JC Superstar punch and the other guy would have to be carried out of the ring.
@sludge8506 wasn't even a Taylor fan, but he was the better fighter. By far. He was up by 6 on all 3 scorecards. Wasn't even close.
@@bobvylan7215 There were six seconds left. When Chavez floored him the clock was at 17 seconds. At the end of the ten count Steele looks at Taylor and says "Are you all right?" Taylor did not respond and did not make eye contact with Steele, maybe looking over at his corner. Taylor was hospitalized after the fight and was never the same. Steele did exactly what he should have done under the circumstances. The criminal act would have been allowing Chavez to take his best shot on a fighter who by all appearances could not have defended himself.
ANYTIME a showboater gets beaten, I'm elated! I cannot stand showboaters, braggers and arrogant cockiness among ANYONE, especially professional sports players!!
Entah mengapa semenjak saya sekolah di SD sangat menyenangi Foreman
I think Huck vs Głowacki is worth mentioning. Title fight, Głowacki get knocked down very hard in 6th, instead of clinching fights thru. Trailing on scorecards sends Huck on canvas twice in 11th. kzhead.info/sun/oa5ugL6JmJmupKs/bejne.html
I don’t doubt any of these comebacks are worth being in this video, but you should look at the Jeff Harding vs Denise Andrea first title fight, Hardings comeback was truly inspirational. 🥊
Great call. I remember that fight well.
6:27 -- Froch rhymes with "watch".
that uppercut...
Foreman - Shavers was also an epic back and forth.
Buster Douglas v Tyson? I don't think there's any other boxer who got up to defeat Tyson after being put on the canvas.
Absolutely true. Douglas had the mojo that night to do the impossible: get floored by Tyson only to comeback to knock Tyson out for his first loss. EPIC display of heart and belief that he could beat Tyson and win.
kid mike is a hunter for retired, injuired and annonym fighters.created by Don king and overated by media. Douglas who destroyed the mike's brain,ruddock,smith,tucker and mike are just normal fighters with same level. no one of them can resist 12 rounds against fighters like Holyfield , bowe or Lewis. we can say also that little mike had no stamina , no chin and never comeback after difficult situation and failed in all real test in his career against good fighters.
Remember Douglas got a 13 count earlier in the fight. Tyson being KO should have never happened.
Froch and Taylor showed the greatness of Froch
Nice thumbnail. I didn't know Tyson Fury and Alistair Overeem fought 😂
Brilliant video. Thank you.
This video just solidifies the fact that getting rid of the standing 8 count is the dumbest thing to ever happen to pro boxing
Cunningham can proudly say he's one of only THREE people who knocked down the invincible!
Danny Williams with one shoulder popped out deserves to be in here
Boxing has been around long before the 90's right??? I still think nothing tops Marciano Walcott 1 1952.
1:13 watch Fury's head as he eats that punch. Even at reduced playback speed his head motion is a blur. That hit would have put most boxers in a coma but he barely flinches.
Who is Carl Froshe?
So similar to ko punch he put on wilder in the 3rd fight
No Corrales-Castillo? That is THE BEST comeback knockout in boxing history!
Agree brother. RIP Diego 😢
Michael Carbajal vs Chiquita Gonzalez.
@@rsoria64 It's been years since I've watched it, but that is also a damn great comeback by Carbajal. As KO Magazine said, "Carbajal chewed up Chiquita!" :)
@@rsoria64 Kennedy McKinney vs Welcome Ncita is another good comeback fight. McKinney was behind on the scorecards when he zapped defending champ Ncita in the 11th.
Yeah, Diego, spit out your mouthpiece to buy time while your totally out of it. He should've lost by TKO when he did that.
No Jeff Harding from Australia ??? Check it out he was a warrior !! most of these dont come close.
If Chavez had been the one hurt with so little time left in the fight, do you think the ref would've stopped it? Don't forget Chavez got a gift draw against Whittaker (and I despise Whittaker).
Is that your real voice... on the video?
10 seconds and I couldn't keep listening.
Tommy „gun“ Morrison 5:00 - Guys, his story is tragic. He almost made it to the top several times.
I know, right? Has there ever been a heavyweight who hit harder than that guy?
Yes you’re right it was a tragedy what happened to Tommy. Also the same can be said for Arturo Gatti another tragic loss for his family and for boxing!🥊
Is the narrator trying to sound like a caricature of cheesy movie reviews?
need Marciano vs Jersey Joe Walcott
0:41 😅😂
The way you pronounce 'Froch' hurts my brain
How the hell did they leave out the Ali Foreman Rope A Dope knockdown?
Since when have Frenchmen started to be cocky? How quickly shame wears off in just a few generations.
You explain it nice!
Mike Weaver vs. John Tate
Love how the crowd cheered when that dancing clown got tkod
At 4:45, Rodda? Really? C’mon. And you pronounce Froch completely wrong when the announcers pronounce it correct multiple times. This is amateur hour for monetary purposes only. But I guess I watched it, so more power to you.
corrales vs costello?
Moore - durelle 1 should be right here. Doesnt even looked reel
a minute and a half intro..wtf dude.
You see the Morrison Vs Ruddock fight? They can have many explosive exchanges without wearing themselves out and needing the remainder of the round to recover, unlike the modern heavyweights, on the very rare occasions anyone can get Usyk, Fury, Joshua, etc to fight that is!
Little Tommy was known for running out of gas. You sound like an ancient armchair warrior who’s glory days ended decades ago. You rant on the internet because nobody will listen to you anymore.
Karl frousche hahaha that’s a new one. Better than frock I guess. For reference his name is pronounced froch like crotch lol.
"There's been" [=there HAS been] a FEW MOMENTS"? UM - NO. "THERE HAVE BEEN... [= There've been...]. BETTER. Much.
1min & im out. Y u gotta talk dude? WE CAN SEE THE VIDEO
Antwon Echols. Cincy
This narrator doesn't know and cannot pronounce the names of some of the fighters in this video. Was it really that hard to make sure he got those right?
He may have a French passport, but he's not a Frenchman.
Tyson furry with hair lol!
00:56 WTF....same thing as the 1. Wilder fight.
Carl rouge?
What about Tate vs Weaver?
Fury fights better without hair! 😆
No Nigel Benn vs McClellan????
This fight breaks my heart. As a result of the fight, McClellan is blind, hearing-impaired, suffers short-term memory loss, and is using a wheelchair to this day.
@@BoxingMates1 Correct, are we supposed to have sympathy for a man who taped the jaws of a Labrador puppy shut and let his Pitbull tear it to shreds til it was dead? Well i find it very difficult to condone doing that to a defenceless animal and i just see it as karma caught up with him.
Honestly im latino but the chavez robbed taylor that fight
Tyson fury got knocked down by a cruiserweight lol..he always has advantages 😅
This video isn't a little sped up?
Whitlock's Nancy shorts almost knocked me out with laughter just watching him. The outright arrogance/pride that some of these guys show is sad.
Richard Steele, the most crooked ref in the biz.
I thought so then. I was drunk though. When I watched it sober 30 years later I saw that Taylor was unable to defend himself. Chavez would likely have hit him again in that state and those are the blows that cause bad brain damage or even kill. Taylor ended up with dementia as it was. Steele did what a ref has to do in that situation--protect the fighter.
You all left of a lot
Mildrick Taylor vs Julio Caesar Chavez wasn't a comeback. That was the greatest robbery in the history of boxing. 2 seconds and he stopped it
CRY
@@plejdjddashfan8520it’s true
@@plejdjddashfan8520Eh, that ok. The great Mexican "hero" later destroyed his own life with drugs and Allegations of spousal abuse... The SAME drugs he used for his entire career. So, cry about that. Those are undisputed FACTS.
@@plejdjddashfan8520lmfao clown you clearly don’t know boxing if you don’t this
Audley Harrison sprott
Lol you forgot Marquez v Pacquiao 4. Marquez was obliterated and he trails in all scorecards
Tyson wasn't hurt at all.
Richard Steel was always a corrupt ref. He stopped the fight 2 sec remaining, because Don King may had paid him.
To ur assist
It's hard to take this video seriously with all the mis-pronunciations strewn about.
Bud Crawford had the WBO welterweight title since 2018....... So there's no way Maxwell could've fought for it. If you're going to open your mouth..... at least know WTF you're talking about .
Castillo Corrales is the best comeback round.
Yeah, the mouthpiece trick is worthy of praise. Not.
@@Salieri47 yeah that gave him an extra few seconds to recover. Still takes a very bad man to come back from two brutal knockdowns to knock out an incredibly durable fighter. All in one round! I don't think Corrales had even been knocked down at that point in his career. If you can hate on that fight, I'm not sure what you're looking for in a boxing match.
@@joeshoe6184Fighters who don't intentionally spit out their mouthpiece to buy time to avoid getting KOd.
@@Salieri47 like I said, if you can hate on that fight, I'm not sure what to tell you. It's in my top 10 all time.
these are not comebacks...what a bad choice
How do you narrate a video where the announcers clearly are screaming the guys name and mispronounce it? 🤨 No one pronounced Froch to rhyme with roach or brooch - t rhymes with crotch. Pet peeve of mind. What is this a. Voice over job?
Why is Alistair overeem on this foto
Its the "click game". Duh.
Dont you have a normal voice
"Using that forearm" to hold & hit. I'm glad you left out Corrales spitting out his mouthpiece twice to buy time.
The ref that stopped the fight 5 seconds before the end of the bout should have been kicked out of the game.
You have no idea what the rules are…. The time is irrelevant, not defending yourself…. The fight is stopped. Don’t talk about something you lack and education on
The ref just wanted the spotlight so bad bro couldn't wait 5 seconds
Stupid ref
no name😅😅
Mildred? LOL.
I noticed that too. What a bad joke.
It's pronounced "Frock", not "Froche."
