    Yeah maybe i'll take that one Bentt was an unknown with very few pro fights!

    Zahir Raheem vs Erik Morales 2005
    In hindsight this was the beginning of the end for Morales but a huge upset at the time!

    Also, Calzaghe v Lacy (in terms of how easy it was)

    Check out the forums back then, the Yanks through Lacy was gonna get locked up for murdering him

    I don't class Pacquiao v DLH as an upset, certainly not a huge upset. All others are good suggestions though.

    Hatton v Tszyu was a big upset in my opinion and also RJJ's first loss to Tarver.

    Douglas v Tyson is probably the biggest upset.

    Turpin v Robinson?

    I doubt anybody expected Duran to quit v SRL but alot of people were expecting SRL to win so it's not really an upset as such.

    Golota vs bowe.

    Golota made bowe his ***** that night.

    Naz vs Barrera think Naz was a big favourite and got ****ed every rd.

    Anyone in the know realised Barrera was going to tear Naz apart to be fair

    Golota/Bowe? Yep i'll have that one nobody expected a performance like that from Golota

    Going into the fight no one knew Oscar would nearly lose his life just making weight on the scales.
