    Munguia was 1-1 going into this fight, wasn't elite and wasn't even a champion. It was an upset but it doesn't anywhere near compare to "elite" upsets as the Munguia wasn't upper echelon elite.

    And I know what the odds say, that doesn't mean much here. It just reflects someone ranked is supposed to at the very least, beat someone that has never even been heard of..................

    Barboza and the Irish dude was also a huge upset. I wonder what the odds were on that fight. I made like 20-50 bucks I forgot how much I put on it lol at +900 Barboza in like round 9 cause I knew they’d rob the other dude.

    Yes but... McComb got screwed out of his win against Barboza. However, Barboza went on to beat Jose Carlos Ramirez, which I knew would be a walk in the park fo a natural counter puncher like Arnold. Whereas McComb vs. Barboza was counter puncher vs. counter puncher, which is always tricky when neither man wants to take the lead.

    i saw that one coming. all the signs were there.
    i didnt see this one coming. an unknown frenchman on short notice?
    it wasnt a fluke, but it could have been avoided. a rematch should sort it out. it was funny af, though.

    Courage Tshabslala vs Brian Scott. Ol Courage was undefeated, 18-0 with 18 knockouts, Brain Scott was an inactive replacement if I'm not mistaken. Brian was a big boy, I remember calling him corned during the fight. After hearing his situation, I figured I'd pull for Cornfed, and I'll be damned, the boy came through.
