    Haha exactly my question man. I assumed that he thought Foreman/Ali was the bigger upset and was getting ready to pounce and write up a novel about why it was the bigger upset. The outcome of this poll was fairly obvious.

    Ellerbe makes endless blind assumptions.

    Pay him no heed, we all call him "the weasel".

    Making that assumption was giving him the benefit of the doubt. I like to see the best in everyone. I didn't think that for someone who's been around for 10 years, that he would actually ask this question without knowing the majority outcome.

    Lmao ellerbe's subconsciously admitting that he freaks out claiming STALKING whenever he gets his ass handed to him.

    That's why we call you the weasel.

    Alright dude! Lets do it this way. If you think I am so stupid to not know which one is the bigger upset than the other between both options that I posted above then you just get the hell out of my thread. OK? I post this thread to see people 's opinions/comments but you are trying to ruin my thread and insulting me.

    Gotta be Douglas. Douglas showed skills and courage we didn't know he had. We knew Ali was capable of the unexpected and moments of genius.

    I guess the question is,,,,

    Was Ali's victory over Foreman the second biggest UPSET of all time??

    I think that's fair, at the time most were expecting Foreman to blow out or at least beat Ali. At the time Foreman had that unbeatable reputation going.

    It wasn't as big a upset as the Douglas victory but it was a huge upset nonetheless.

    It shocked the world, not just the boxing world. It was arguably Ali's best win.
