    You must be of a similar age to my Dad? Ali thought Liston in 64, do you have to be in your 70s, or late 60s??

    On wikipedia it says Barrera was a 3/1 underdog.

    Remember he was moving up in weight too, and he still beatdown hypejob Hamed like a ragdoll :)

    You all seem right. Well, it is me, I'm biased. I've always thought Hamed was extremely overrated and I've always been a massive barrera fan. So it seems everything is mixed in my head. It's not the first time

    Pretty sure Barrera and Holyfield were IIRC.

    Mares was probably the king of low blows, the foul pole included but they let him get away with it. Bizarre really. Jeff Harding v Dennis Andries probably my fav upset.
