Would Henry Cooper count? I know he was well-known inside of the UK, but he was well-known internationally for knocking down Ali. Maybe I'm just showing my ignorance here.

Sure, we'll allow Cooper for striking fear into the hearts of Ali fans everywhere.
Another that sticks in my mind was Gene "Mad Dog" Hatcher, who was being hopelessly outclassed by JW champ Johnny Bumphus until he managed to plant a single left hand upside Bumphus' head in the 11th round of their 1984 fight, thereby achieving his brief moment in the sun.
