Edgar vs Maynard 2 and 3 is a good call.  I bet #2 is the only draw that really deserves to be on the list!

I need to work edger/maynars 2&3 into my list as well.  I think I have a tendancy to think of a comeback as one action that ended the fight (ko, sub, etc).  Shields/Hendo would be a similar example of a VERY one-sided first round followed by a comeback and victory.

could not put noguiera vs sylvia in for some reason. thats why i stopped at 5. SK has the same number 1 as me. damn i  thought i would be the only one to remember that one. no one else has tanner vs terrell though.

This is what I've got, why doesn't anyone show some love to Leben? He's like one of the best at coming from behind.

Definitely a tough one to gauge seeing some that I forgot that I have to add to my list.

Im surprised more people dont have Duffee v Russow. That was an epic comeback imo. It may not have been a big fight but still he was completely dominated and the Bam! KO

Nice to see Leben/Martin and Tanner/Terrell. I put Edgar/Maynard III but I consider II and III one big long interrupted match. Can't believe nobody thought of the original great comeback even if he didn't continue.
