    Might as well have been 10 points. If Froch hadn't have stopped Taylor he would have lost so it was a pretty good comeback to grab victory with 14 seconds left in the fight. He was 106-102 down on 2 cards at least. Turning an imminent points loss in to a stoppage victory i'm certain can be called a good comeback.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Don't know about ever but a few personal favs regardless of length

    Saad Muhammad and Marvin Johnson 2. Johnson gave him literal hell early..cuts, gashes and wobbles but Saad (Franklin) swarmed back to hurt then floor Johnson. Absolute savage battle, then again its Saad...per norm.

    Quincy Taylor ko 12 Otis Grant. Lesser known one but undefeated Grant was boxing smart and ahead with ease I thought and then...boom! Taylor catches him with about 20 seconds left in 12th...one punch, down and out! No need to count.

    Michael Carbajal v Jorge Arce. Carbajal fighting on memory, balls and a big right hand alone. Late on catches Arce late and gets stoppage. The mans a fuckin legend! Put Gonzalez first fight in there for that matter...he was getting hammered until that left hook.

    Kennedy Mckinney v Welcome Ncita 1. Not sure what scores were but as a man McKinney came back from the brink in 11th, almost quit on himself, battered and down and when he got up he put one of the most brutal kos on Ncita you'll ever see. Find it...watch it!

    Mercer v Damiani. Different kind on 'comeback' as Mercer was taking zero 'beating' but man he was being clowned badly by Damiani. One uppercut from him later in 9th and Damiani was on his knees pouring blood from his nose and badly broken. Game, set, match!

    Wilfredo Vazquez tko11 Eloy Rojas. Challenger Vazquez was behind on all cards by as much as 4,8 points into 11th and then just detonated on Rojas who was making his 7th defense with a sudden barrage. Really harsh knockout, great sudden turn around win.

    Kevin Kelly ko 9 Recardo rivera. Kelly looks terrible in comeback bout after first loss and gets beat up and ropped by unknown and suddenly snags victory with big bomb out of the dark.

    Louis v Conn 1...Gatti v Rodriquez...Toney v Nunn...Benn v Logan, short but sweeeet!

    While they weren't single fights but "comebacks to the sport"

    'Big' George Foreman - Came back after a long hiatus from the sport to become the oldest heavyweight Champion ever

    'Dr. Ironfist' Vitali Klitschko - Came back after years away from the sport due to injury & dominated every single opponent he fought

    'Will 'o the Wisp' Willie Pep - Came back after surviving a plane crash to continue to dominate

    On a similar note, Vinny Paziensa coming back from a broken neck and becoming world champion.

    Danny Williams knocking out Potter when he had that dislocated shoulder.
