    No, when Oscar came in so light it was just when would he be stopped but even then Pacquaio couldnt put him down or away. Oscar just quit.

    Mosley is a steroid cheat, fuck him! Stop giving him props for being a dirty cunt.
    Bullshit. I'm not buying that you thought a fucking 1 fight lightweight would stop Oscar. Not a chance you saw that coming.

    Yes Mosley is a steroid cheat, but he tested clean for that fight, and it was against a guy planning to use loaded gloves on him.

    Fuck off!

    Not one single person who knew anything about boxing, thought Oscar stood a chance. He, hadnt fought at that weight for over 7 years and only managed to put just over a pound on over night by the use of an intravenus (or however you spell it) drip!

    This fight to me is absolutely no different to Wards win over Dawson. Although Dawson agreed to it the fight was a joke and meaningless.

    I think that Chavez was the under-dog when he fought Rosario.

    Jose Armando Santa Cruz over Joel Casamayor is one that I think has been a little bit forgotten about and deserves some props since Jose's brother Leo is now looking to be quite a force in his division these days.

    Judges screwed it up but Santa Cruz won every single round against Casamayor.

    Pac was only about 2/1 or so, thats not a massive underdog. Thats a very competitive match up in a 2 horse race and especially in boxing betting where the odds are routinely massive favourites 1/20 etc.

    2/1 means hes predicted to win one third of the time, which doesnt qualify as much of an upset tbh. Its not a big upset for a 5 or 6 to come up when you roll a dice.

    Obviously Pac did completely own Oscar as an underdog of sorts (and no one expected that level of domination as far as im aware) but I dont think this example is what the thread creator was looking for.

    BHop is a slightly better example but still he was only 3/1 or so I believe.

    These arent big upsets.

    Its very difficult to think of any 1 sided beatdowns by massive underdogs. Only KOs and hardfought decisions etc. I'll throw in a couple of those types of scenarios just for the hell of it even if they dont quite fit the criteria.

    Ali was an 8/1 underdog in his first fight against Liston. Liston was so much a favourite infact that he was still installed as a slight favourite for the rematch.

    Frankie Randall split decision over Chavez as a 15/1 underdog ending Chavezs 90 fight unbeaten streak and delivering him his first ever knockdown.

    Please one of you saying you weren't shocked by Pac stopping Oscar, please show me a post on this forum were you predicted that would happen. Because I don't recall one person, other than a few hopeful Pac fans, who believed that would happen.

    I never posted here then but I guarantee you I said it on many others. I predicted Oscar would get killed on three forums.

    Lloyd Honeyghan / Donald Curry. Curry was never the same after this fight.
    This was possibly the best performance from a British fighter on foreign soil.

    I didn't think Oscar would cop such a beating by the Pacman, i really thought Pacquiao was in trouble before this fight. What i also didn't count on was Oscar's health and fitness team being so ridiculously stupid in the lead up to the fight! Oscar is guilty too, did he not know what was happening to his own body? It was still a shock to see DLH have the living suitcase belted out of him.

    Agreed I was surprised that Pac Man beat Oscar but that was Oscar’s fault and even if it was a light middle Pac Man would have won but on points. I also though Oscar would beat Floyd at light middle but he lost that one too.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Lacy getting exposed the way he did was a massive upset as no one except Joe seemed to know what was about to happen. I guess this was a case of boxers seeing more than we could.

    I think Hopkins has done this the most (maybe more than any othet fighter) but I think Jeff getting exposed was the biggest one sided upset.
