Re: Boxers who lost and came back stronger
James J Braddock was going nowhere fast, lots of losses and then turned it around to become heavyweight champ.
Louis' return after the devastating loss to Schemeling was pretty good .... Ali didn't do too bad after being given a hiding by Smokin' Joe Frazier.
Sugar Ray went something like 40 undefeated till he lost to La Motta - then he went something like another 90 fights undefeated till he lost to Turpin (I stand to be corrected on the actual numbers, but hopefully you agree with my point)

Re: Boxers who lost and came back stronger
A lot of guys will get a loss due to difficulty making weight as they grow out of a weight class, or in the beginning of their careers when their inexperience puts them in danger. It happens to the greats to, Sugar Ray's idol Henry Armstrong, and Benny Leonard.
If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

Re: Boxers who lost and came back stronger
P.S. I just surfing the back pages here and read that Anthony Mundine's old man Tony Mundine got KO'd by Luis Rodrigues and went on to beat Emile Griffith and take a shot at Carlos Monzon's title.
