    Nonito Donaire beat James Kirkland in the amateurs. That seems CRAZY!! Anybody know anything more on this one?
    Vanes Martirosyan beat Timothy Bradley and Andre Berto. I think he said he lost the first one vs one of those guys I think Berto. I believe he said he actually had Berto badly hurt.
    What are more unusual amateur results of current, active boxers?

    Bute also got knocked out vs. Golovkin, maybe not surprising as much.

    Haye was stopped quite a few times in the am's vs. lesser opponents, and Solis was a stud.

    I think Kelson Pinto KO'ed him a few times, but he was much older than Cotto in the am's.

    Calzaghe had some serious power before getting old and changing his style up - I hear due to brittle hands.

    But still, Byrd had a solid beard at heavy.

    Augie Sanchez (retired) beat Floyd once they had a rivalry in the amatuers and a series of fights.

    I know this fight is from the past but Mike Ayala(former Junior Feather contender) beat Tommy Hearns in the amatuers

    David Diaz beating Zab Judah
    Michael Simms over David Haye

    Last I saw of Augie Sanchez he was knocked out cold by a right hand from John Michael Johnson. Augie went down like he'd been shot. Fight only lasted 31 seconds.
