Boxing is one of these sports the comeback stories maybe resonate with more than most and are a metaphor for life more than most sports.
Everyone loves the Rocky movies in that sense and Rocky Balboa.
But in real life professional boxing, former world champion Errol Spence asked on X who came back best from injury:
“Who was/is the greatest comeback fighter from a accident/serious surgery in boxing history ?”
The responses are interesting:
‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard too of course.
Came back from a serious eye injury, surgery and came back well no less.
Billy Dibb recently from Australia coming back from cancer too in most recent times.
Spence will look to do something more in the sport too in this regard.
