    Crawford vs Gamboa wasn't an upset. That fight was so predictable. Gamboa had no business at 135
     
  3. Pacquiao-Marquez was, is, and will always be a 50/50 fight, so KO6 wasn't an upset.

    Crawford was the favorite in his fight, so no upset there.

    i'll go with Kirkland just for the fact that he was in with a nobody whereas the others were in with good fighters when they lost.

    :good

    HBO didnt even bother getting a Japanese translator for the fight, I'm pretty sure they just grabbed some random bilingual Japanese guy from the audience to translate during the post fight interview lol

    A feather fisted b level fighter knocking out a huge favorite who was touted as this monster puncher that's making a huge comeback, imo that fight was the biggest upset because no one saw it coming

    If you include Tarver vs. Jones 2 why not include another fight between two perennial boxing stars...DeLa Hoya vs. Pacquiao...!!!

    Many boxing experts picked DeLa Hoya to be too big, too strong, better chin than Pacquiao...!!! Pacquiao only fought once over 130 before the fight vs DeLa Hoya. Pacquiao was moving up two weightclasses and DeLa Hoya was moving down one class...!!!

    How is it 50/50 when JMM is 4-0 Pac? Or at worse 3-0-1
