I have been thinking about making this thread for quite a while and the way I'd like to set it going is by starting by saying the first man who comes to mind when I think of a fighter who was most dangerous when hurt is Marco Antonio Barrera. Here is a piece of evidence to back that up.

Can anyone else come up with a fighter that had this quality and a bit of proof i.e. a video clip or a detailed report?
Nigel Benn.

um. Hamed v Augie Sanchez.
Beat me to it. Benn was often wobbled and hurt, but when he was he threw everything at his opponents. Good examples are the Barkley and McClellan fights.Quote:

Holyfield was nearly out in round 10 vs Bowe and then recovered to almost
KO Bowe.

Gatti
Hitting Bhop on the chin in his prime was always a bad move and more often than not led to you getting 4 times more back in return
Holyfield always struck me as the kind of guy who needed to take a few just to wake him up
Morales, anytime someone rocked him even the slightest bit, he'd return with a barrage of shots, did it in Barrera I & III, Pacquiao I & II, Chavez, Hernandez, Kelly, etc.
Matthew Saad Muhammad
Arturo Gatti
Evander Holyfield
Nigel Benn
Kevin Kelley
Erik Morales
Marco Antonio Barrera
Juan Manuel Marquez
Manny Pacquiao
Diego Corrales
Felix Trinidad
Naseem Hamed
Julian Letterlough
Julian Jackson
Larry Holmes
Joe Frazier
Iran Barkley
Rocky Marciano
Marquez sticks out, & although he was never really hurt, as soon as someone got Marvin Hagler with a big shot or cut him, he would get really mad.
Juan Manuel Marquez and Diego Corrales came to mind. Diego particularly for the castillo fight.
See thats why i didn't list Marvin Hagler or Julio Cesar Chavez, because i could never really tell when they were hurt. I can only think of a few occasions when they actually looked hurt in there prime.Quote:

Aaron Pryor - It was always a mistake for an opponent to knock him down
Holyfield - Hurting him just made him fight harder.
