    Which was a more unexpected and bigger upset?

    Hagler-Hearns was never, for me anyway, an "upset"...it was rather, a thriller in the way the bout turned out. I never once thought that Hearns would unseat the mighty Hag as champion
    Foreman-Frazier WAS, especially post FOTC, a major upset, and in it's own way, was a thriller,...a one sided, almost surrealistic, one-way thriller, that is.

    Was Hagler Hearns really seen as an upset? I thougth Hagler was the favourite.

    Not that many people in the boxing world thought Foreman would win.
