    Canelo beating Golovkin in the rematch was very satisfying

    Marquez beating Pacquiao by KO was even more satisfying

    Not by our expectations, but he was a betting underdog.

    Probably a boxing industry-wide (peers, pundits, fans) underdog, too.



    Off the top of my head, nominations to;

    Gomez-Arthur,

    Morales-Pacquiao I,

    Pavlik-Miranda,

    Pavlik-Taylor I,

    Margarito-Cotto I,

    Salido-López I,

    Mitchell-Murray,

    Froch-Bute,

    Malignaggi-Senchenko,

    Fury-Klitschko,

    Fury-Wilder II.


    There'll be tons I'm forgetting at the moment.

    Calzaghe-Lacy, of course.

    Less widely heralded, William Warburton-Georgie Kean.

    More recently, Leach-Bourke.
