Biggest HW upset scince Douglas - Tyson?

Wlad-Sanders is a good choice.


McCall-Lewis, Rahman-Lewis, and Bennt (ot whatever his name was)-Morrison were also big ones. I also don't think many expected Ruiz to beat Holy.

 

I never underestimate Golta's capacity to throw away a fight or to look like a glass-jawed joke against any level of opositiion!

 

Rahman vs Lewis 1 the odds were 14:1.


Sanders vs W.Klitscko the odds I believe were like 20:1.

Just some perspective.

 

Perspective is that Lewis was the champion. Not comparable

 

I'm pretty sure champion status is taken into account when odds are set.

Tyson/Holyfield wasn't a big upset...it was actually the biggest betting loss in HW history, but the odds weren't too bad. But everyone was banking on Tyson.

 

I like that fight at, the end of it is awesome the crowd goes ****ing nuts I havent seen any crowd make more noise than the end of that fight. George had to wait 3 years since the Holyfeld fight to get another crack at the linear title and he pulled it off.

Rahman over Lewis clearly, I'd say.

 

Brewster was the favorite in the fight, so it wouldn't be considered an upset!

 

Tyson was a 20-1 favorite.....that is about as big of a favorite could be in a boxing match.

 

Rahman Lewis I - Far more surprising and unexpected.

And boy what an emphatic way to return the favour by Lennox in the second one.

 

Rahman Lewis.

 

Tyson/Holyfield was a HUGE upset.... There was uproar when this fight was put together & King promised to refund 50% of the PPv if it never went 3 rd's.....Holyfield opened at 28/1 & closed at 18/1...I was at the fight & my missis stuck $200 on Holyfield at 20/1 without me knowing & after i'd told her DON'T YOU DARE DO IT yer dumb *****.

I agree it was the biggest betting loss & so was the 2nd fight for plenty of punters who doubled up on Tyson, bad atmosphere at that fight + it really was one of those high-roller VIP crowds & a **** undercard to boot. All the tickets were $1500 & none were put up for sale to the public, $16,000 was the advertised price in the Vegas Sun for any ticket & most were changing hands at $25,000 on fightnight.
