Outcomes that shocked you

honeyghan beating don curry....lewis easily and comprehensively handling the great pie eating champion, david tua....

 

1. Tyson Douglas- I didnt see the fight live but I remember coming home from church and rushing to see the news hoping they'd show the still photos of the fight and of course another Tyson victory. Instead I saw bad news. I didnt believe it at first so I watched several different channels hoping to get a different take of the fight.

2. Tyson-Holyfield I & II: First fight seemed so surreal at the time I watched it. The second fight....Self explanatory.

3. Lewis-Rahman I: I was writing a paper (midterm) for a class I skipped earlier that day, and I was watching it casually. When Rahman landed that punch I was shocked.

4. Trinidad-Hopkins: I wasnt on the Tito Express because I've always felt he seemed to much like a limited fighter but there was no way in hell I would have thought Hopkins would stop the train ride. Round in Round out BHop was beating him and it for some reason reminded me of how I felt during Tyson Holyfield I.

5. Roy Jones vs. Tarver II: Even if Jones were to lose there is no way I would have picked him to lose via 1 Punch KO. No way.

6. George Foreman vs. Micheal Moorer: Obvious reasons. Part of me bought that whole old guy trying to win back the title after so many years. I wanted George to win but didnt think given the attitude and commentary at the time that he would win.

7. Barerra vs. Hamed: I thought Prince Naz would take him. I stood corrected.

 

Calzaghe completely outboxing Lacy, after seeing Lacy destroy Reid I was expecting more of the same

 

Fenech vs Nelson 2-I like most Australians expected Fenech to right the wrong of their first fight by taking the result out of the judges hands on home soil by stopping Nelson.Didn't happen that way.

Barrera vs Junior Jones 1-I thought Jones was far too chinny and vulnerable to handle Barrera's power and aggression.

Terry Norris vs Keith Mullings-With Norris's chin something could always go wrong but I didn't expect it against a battler like Mullings.

Kostya Tszyu vs Vince Phillips-If anyone here gave Phillips a chance going in then they sure knew something I didn't.I expected Tszyu to dismantle him easily,but watching it I knew within a few rounds that my prediction was way off.

 

Tyson-Williams comes to mind for me.

 

Page-Berbick(at the time it happened)
McGuigan-Taylor
Duran-Moore
M Spinks-Holmes
Chandler-Sandoval
Curry-McCrory
Starling-Vilela

 

McGuigan/Taylor was a poor performance by Barry, it hardly seemed an upset, why were you shocked?

 

\

I was thinking Bernard was going to beat Barry.Looking back on it now, I know better.Bernard didn't fight the right type of competition coming up.That's not to take anything from Barry, but Bernard had nice skills.

 

And indeed he gave the Clones Cyclone the runaround for a few rounds...

 

Curry-McCallum

 

Roger Leonard-Mario Maldanado
Alex Ramos-Ted Sanders
Mustafa Hamsho-Bobby Czyz
Howard Davis-Edwin Rosario
Howard Davis-Jim Watt
Julio Caesar Chavez-Meldrick Taylor.

 

Larry Holmes vs Leon Spinks.

 

Mijares getting owned by Darchinyan. Never saw it coming.

 

For stinking the joint out Dirrell-style against Pedroza?

 

I thought Bronco Billy Wright was going to take Michael Moorer into deep waters and sink him.

By a fluke of fate, it wasn't to be.
