Biggest HW upset scince Douglas - Tyson?

Even though the outcome was a DQ the biggest upset was Bowe-Golota, hands down.

 

how about Ike Ibeabuchi against either chris byrd (26-0) or david tua (27-0)?

 

Rahman-Lewis or Wlad-Sanders.

Vitali-Peter was an upset too, many people thought Peter would take advantage of Vitali's advanced age and 4 year layoff, many picked Vitali but to have him dominate every minute of the fight so convincingly and brutalize Peter so effortlessly was a surprise.

:hat

 

Not 100% but think Tyson was the favorite the second time, everyone believed he hadnt trained hard for the first fight and would for the rematch.

 

Thats a good call.......


Though i always thought Tyson would've murdered Williams if he hadn't ****ed his knee so early on in the fight...took a bit of shine away from Williams' win imo

 

Golota Brewster was My personal huge upset!!!!!

It's like joke. I took a sip of beer and the fight was over

 

Was wlad vs brewster a shock?

 

For me yes, but Brewster was really dangerous then, after Wlad there was 54 sec with golota

Tyson vs McBride was huge upset....living legend defeated by a BUM

 

Favourite to win, sure. But not a massive favourite, and not many expected him to win like that. Peter didn't win a ten-second stretch in that fight and ended up beaten to the point of humiliation.

:hat

 

The more I think about it, Bentt-Morrison definitely deserves to be mentioned.

 

I remember having a £50 bet with my friend on this one - he was adamant that Holyfield would win and I disagreed - he gave me evens! I covered the bet at the bookies with £8 at 7/1 on Holyfield before the fight and so I made a tiny profit. With hindsight I should have put £20 on and been up either way. You live and learn.

 

McCline bouncing Peter off the mat like that was a shocker.
