The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
I won't set any parameters on this other than the fighter has to have gotten up under their own power before 10 seconds, the fight could have been stopped because the fighter was too hurt to continue, but he couldn't get counted out and then get up. So for example Meldrick Taylor-Julio Cesar Chavez could be included, Lennox Lewis-Oliver McCall could be included, but Lennox Lewis-Hasim Rahman could not be included.
OK I'll start
Larry Holmes-Earnie Shavers II

4:51 of the clip....just Holy Hell there was a mushroom cloud after that bomb landed.
Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier I
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltJZ2XfPLnc
That left hook was brutal and Ali just popped right back up.
Zab Judah-Kostya Tszyu

Yeah we all know this vid for the chicken dance, but to his credit Zab got up from that punch and it was a big one too

He didn't get up from the second! :-X
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
the zab-tszyu is similar to donaire-darchinyan.
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
The honor DEFINATELY has to go to Terry Norris in the Julian Jackson fight. He took 3 flush knockout bombs from the p4p hardest puncher ever and fell flat on his face out cold. How he ever got up from that is anyone's guess (the ref did stop it because he was out of his feet, but he still got up).

If You want to talk fights where the guy got up and it wasn't immediately stopped, Chris Byrd/Ibeabuchi comes to mind. Even though Byrd was out on his feet and got stopped immediately after, its AMAZING that he got up for this bomb.

Also the big one that comes to mind is Nigel Benn in his fight with Mcclellan. Mcclellan seemingly knocked Benn out cold and put him out of the ring. Nigel gets back up and fight for another 9 rounds and wins.

Briggs against Lewis at 3.18 of this video.

Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
Vargas vs Tito 1st round
Forrest vs Mosley 1st fight; Even though Mosley got nailed by a headbutt Vernon was nailing him hard and he still got up and fought on.
Gatti vs Ward 2nd fight where Gatti nailed Ward on the ear, but he got up and fought on.
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
Digging deep here... Six foot six giant, Jess Willard, surviving a first round stoppage by beating it by a split second from the punitive hands of maulin' Jack Dempsey, but only to find himself brutalized and mauled into a pulp in the next round.
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
In recent memory I would have to say Randal Bailey vs. Juan Urango.
Bailey is arguably the hardest right hand puncher in boxing and he DECKED Urango. But Juan shook it off, somehow got up, and kicked Bailey's ass.
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
The fight was pretty much over with. But how the fuck Milton McCrory got up from what I considered to be the most perfect left hook ever thrown I have no idea

Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
The first one that came to my mind was the shot Foreman hit Frazier with that had Joe leave his feet. The thing with Smokin' Joe was he would get up if you shot him, greatest heart I've ever seen in boxing.

Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
The punch that put Bradley down vs Holt was very impressive to get up from, maybe not hardest ever but Bradley went down heavily!

Someone mentioned Vitali not going down from the uppercuts Lennox threw, but Lennox not going down from that right cross Vitali landed in Round 2....that was a hell of a shot too.

The shot is at 7:22 of the clip...Lennox hangs on for dear life, but he didn't go down
Ray Austin getting up from Wladimir's multiple left hooks was pretty impressive. Even Wlad said he was surprised that he got up as well. One of the very few times someone falls face first and gets up under their own power.

Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
I love this punch. It's one of those wild missing shots like Ricky Hatton kept doing against Pacquiao. I do not know how this didn't ring Bradley's bell to the core. And he won the fight to boot!
43 seconds in... just in case you weren't patient enough to get that far.

Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
That punch bradley took from holt was pretty damn hard....and bradley had to stop himself from getting up too fast !
Re: The hardest punch anyone has ever gotten up from
Lewis-Grant third knockdown in the first round. Both the HBO and Sky commentators shout "that's it, the fight is over"... Foreman is waffling about "he's broke his leg" and Glenn McCrory, for Sky, goes on about "Grant went down like he's been shot" :D

I can't view this at work, but i'm guessing it was the knockdown he suffered against Holt? ;D
Funniest knockdown ever. Something about it, just made me LOL ;D
