    Doesn’t need to be massive fights but most of the time the journeyman/ opponent gets whooped.....someone must have some hope for the underdog.....some good news to keep the opponents coming ?

    Also any fights coming up where the opponent may have a chance where the matchmaker/ manager / promoter has bitten off more than they can chew?

    Thoughts?????????

    Interesting thoughts.....first I thought Prescott and Morales are way better than a journeyman however they were brought in as opponents so I guess its the same thing the promoter is trying to achieve.....a win for the home team

    Prescotts shot on Khan was great for sure as was Garth Wood on Mundine.....Haye got worn down after being on top for most of the fight.....that was a great rally


    All good fight wins by the underdog :good

    Amir Khan - Prescott. I was absolutely astonished to see Khan flat out dreaming on the canvas for a good few seconds. Never seen that one coming.

    Rubio, Salido and Litzau stick out because they were recent and at least 12-1 underdogs.

    I know and remember this because i lost money on all 3.

    Litzau completely wiping out Caballero's chances at a Gambo/Juanma shot was pretty funny to watch.
