I was thinking after watching Cotto-Pacquiao, what fighters all-time took serious floggings in losing efforts and it never really bothered their careers afterward?

Arturo Gatti took a ton of punishment in his losses and was able to rally.

George Foreman especially in his comeback took a beating from Holyfield only to go on to win the Championship vs Moorer.

George Chuvalo got absolutely BLASTED by Frazier and Foreman and he came back to win fights at a high level.

Carmen Basilio always took some punishment in all of his fights win or lose, but he was able to find it in himself to beat Ray Robinson.
