    I wasn't a "hardcore" boxing fan like I am now until 2007 (No, NOT after Pacquiao/Mayweather, etc. . . If you read my posts, you know that I am a true fan - done all my homework on past fistic eras as well). . I've always been a fan, and watched fights with my dad as a kid all the time, but I just didn't really start getting into it until I picked up boxing myself.

    Anyway, what were the odds on these fights, and DID YOU personally see the upset coming?


    Calzaghe/Lacy

    Hatton/Tszyu

    Mayweather/Chico (I know this wasn't an upset, but surely the odds had to have been KINDA close)

    Lewis/Holyfield I - not really sure about this

    Tyson/Lewis EDIT - knew this wasn't really an upset either, but the fashoin in which it went down prolly was surprising to some.

    Vitali Klitschko/Lewis - yeah, Lewis "won" the fight (by default), but he didn't beat vitali. . . and i know it had to be a pretty big surprise to see Vitali getting in DAT AZZ.

    Lewis was an 8-5 favorite over Tyson.

    Mayweather 7-5 favorite over Corrales.

    I was surprised by how well Vitali fought. If I'm not mistaken, Vitali won every round until the fight was stopped.
