I'd agree they probably have a better shot at coming back. I mean Jeff Lacy will unlikely be seen as a major force at 168 again but then I can't think of many fighters who get sparked out who then go onto achieve great things in their careers. Lewis and Nigel Benn are the only two recent exceptions that come immediately to hand.Originally Posted by hitmandonny
A knockout loss early on isn't so bad, David Haye is an example of that but even with him his chin and stamina are always going to be seen as an issue and once a fighter has been knocked out the blueprint is there for it to happen again.
I mean it's interesting that a lot of these guys who got caught got caught more than once, Jones Jr, Lewis, W Klitschko, N Benn etc.
