Which fighters were never "the same" after being KO'd?

[Silencers]

Mmm, most definitely. What was interesting was that he had such a great defense. He just showed small holes or lapses in concentration every now and then and unfortunately for him he was fighting in such a freakish pool of LMW/middleweight talent that those small holes were taken vicious advantage of at the exact moments he showed them.

The McCallum fight still stuns me. He tagged him with I think what he imagined to be a good left and just seemed to pull back with his right hand dropped to see what damage he had done. It was like he stopped thinking for just a moment and then the McCallum super left-hook came out of nowhere! It was actually similar to the other shocking KO loss of that time when Graham was boxing the bollocks out of Jackson before that one moment of foolishness put him out. Both incredible.

I think you are probably right though in that Curry was probably still in great shape even after the Honeyghan loss. He was boxing brilliantly in the McCallum fight until the KO and I think with that happening a second time one after another was too much for him. I can't believe Honeyghan didn't amount to anything after that. He never gave a performance even close to that kind of skill and determination. It was as if his whole career was poured into that one fight leaving him listless and just bad after it.

I really liked his defense, he'd just dip or slip a punch by just doing some subtle things in there, he made it look easy in his prime. And I agree, he had some concentration issues like when he drops his left hand or backing up straight but overall his defense was superb in his prime.

Yeah, that left hook came out of nowhere, Curry was boxing great in that fight, he was leading and even stunned McCallum, who had a very good chin, almost dropped him with a right hand I think in the 3rd (?) round. McCallum said he set up that left hook by throwing a wild uppercut to the body first to confuse Curry, he said he made Curry think that he was going to the body with the left hand but instead went upstairs with it, beautiful punch.

I can agree with TheMachine about Honeyghan, perhaps the Starling loss ruined him because there was a steep decline between that fight and the Breland fight, he looked shot against Breland, but you're right, he never put on the type of performance he put on against Curry again.
