    hell yeah, at first the commission didn't want the fight to happen because of Holyfield's heart problem they thought he would die in the ring

    Rahman to beat Lewis, and I'm a huge Lewis fan.

    There were reports in the British press at the time that Manny had been training another fighter (don't recall who) in America. He and Lewis went over to SA 2 weeks for training for a fight at 5000ft!! Come the weigh in I knew he was in ****, he'd took the fight too likely, the rematch showed what a focused Lewis would do.

    Ward/Kessler in recent times. Does Dirrell over AA count as an upset?

    This isn't gonna sound too big, but literally everyone on the forum was picking Jean Marc Mormeck to destroy O'Neill Bell. Mormeck was really hot at the time and everyone still had the memory of Bell getting a controversial decision over Dale Brown fresh in there mind, but I picked Bell. I'm not going to say I was the only on ESB who picked Bell to beat Mormeck, but I was the only who made a thread about it BEFORE the fight.
