Johnny Nelson (Nap)
Dennis Andries
Steve Robinson
Marco Antonio Barrera
Lennox Lewis
Joel Casamayor came back strong after all his "so-called" loses
Joe Loius, Ezzard Charles, spring to mind
Bernard Hopkins lost his first Pro fight at LHW then came back at middleweight and didn't lose until he fought for the middleweight crown against Roy Jones in 1993. He then went onto dominate the division for over 12 years.
I know he needs to retire now but I feel proud to have witnessed one of the greatest boxing careers of all time and I really fear for him against Pavlik but he won't listen to good advice from the likes of Freddie Roach.
Kostya Tszyu came back stronger after losing to
Phillips. He went on a 8 year 13 fight including 11 defenses run before losing to Hatton and retiring.
Margarito....;D
Terry Norris
How about Manny Pacquaio. As far as I know he has two KOs from earlier in his career against opponents even the biggest boxing experts probably haven't heard of, and look where he is 8 or 9 years later.
