Scott Morris after getting elbowed into oblivion by Pat Smith in UFC 2 fought again, which is pretty amazing.

Fred Etish - lost to Johnny Rhodes at UFC 2 and got a hell of a beating but continued to compete in Martial Arts
Fabio Gurgel - Got smashed by the Smashing Machine
Paul Varleans - Got Smashed by everyone. In fact was there ever a worse technical fighter in the UFC than Varleans?

Mike Van Arsdale took 4 years off after getting a vicious soccer kick from Wanderlei in the International Vale Tudo Championships, but he came back, so, much respect to Mike.

keep up the good work

Honourable mention to Jani Lax for getting soccerkicked so bad that his jaw just crumbled in his first fight but still coming back for 14 more fights.
