    Any fights that you can think of where a fighter (either a washed up former champion, gatekeeper, or a journeyman) with 10 or more losses who unexpectedly beats a young undefeated fighter?

    The first that comes to mind is Orlando Salido vs. Juanma Lopez, although that seems a bit too recent.

    Doesn't quite match your criteria of (either a washed up former champion, gatekeeper, or a journeyman) but I don't think Salido does either. Chucho Castillo had 10 losses on his ledger when he stopped Ruben Olivares.

    My first thought was Emanuel Augustus & he has rightly stolen three 0´s with 10 losses on his own record. Where they were unexpected or not i don´t really know.

    one that surely qualifies is:
    1997-01-11
    Nashville Arena, Nashville, Tennessee, United States
    Fred Ladd 39-0 Loose KO1 vs Harold Bennet 16-16-2

    I think Mike Weaver had 9 or 10 when he beat John Tate

    Jesse Ferguson had 16 losses when he beat 18-0 Bobby Harris, Maurice Harris had about 12 losses when he KO'd Sergey Lehovich (spelling) I think the Russian was about 16-0. Kelvin Seabrooks had about 13 losses when he beat undefeated Louis Curtis and Thierry Jacob.

    Joey Maxim over Floyd Patterson.

    Though very debatable.
