    Moruti Mthalane v Muhammad Waseem

    Waseem was not spring chiken in terms of age, but he was still an 8 fight novice.

    Lewis-Vitali must at least partly qualify, though Vitali wasn't exactly "young" by usual standards, and stricty speaking wasn't really "schooled" either.

    Juan Diaz vs Juan Manuel marquez for me... Even with Diaz having been beaten by nate campbell beforehand the entire build up to the fight felt like they were feeding an old fighter to a young aggressive bull n using marquez as a stepping stone... First few rounds it looked that way as well.... Sensational fight

    Nice one. Khomitsky is definitely wily has a few good scalps on his record.

    Thanks, I'll check this one out.

    Haye vs Thompson defo springs to mind, which reminds me of Price vs Thompson. Pricey actually went back for second helpings on his Thompson.

    Wlad vs Sanders and Tyson vs Douglas maybe most glaring in past 30 years.

    The one fight I'm thinking of is Fritzie Zivic upsetting the highly touted Billy Arnold.
