Fights in which you KNEW the underdog would win.

The first Barkley/Hearns fight. Called the round too.

[bzkfn]

I picked Margarito to beat Cotto, Hopkins to beat Tito, Cook to beat Arthur and on a much smaller scale I remember people were raving about Bradley Pryce getting a world title shot and I told my friends Matthew Hall would destroy him and knock him out.

I got ridiculed for picking ....


Margarito over Cotto


Ike Ibeabuchi over Tua


Lennox Lewis over Razor Ruddick


Bernard Hopkins over Trinidad


Bernard Hopkins over Pavlik


Hearing the apologies was well worth it though

4. Whitaker over Chavez

Margarito over Cotto.

Hopkins over Pavlik.
Mayweather over Genaro Hernandez

Lennox Lewis over Razor Ruddick
Bernard Hopkins over Trinidad

I don’t really think any of these are big upsets. I think it was more the one sided-ness of the underdogs victory that was most shocking.

I think the Mayweather – Hernandez is interesting in that, amazing to think that at the time Hernandez was a strong favourite to win that fight. Probably the only time in Floyd's career that he entered the ring an underdog.

Ali over Liston and Foreman
Only because I knew the results before I watched the fights though.

O – Right, yeah son. Well unless you are above 70 years of age. I highly doubt that you picked Ali to beat Liston, never mind foreman

[Sleepwalker]

If I were around during Cassius Clay's early career, I would have picked him over Liston. Not by stoppage though. 15 round decision.

I picked Jess Willard over Jack Johnson, son. @denilson200

[Mark TKO]

Eubank - Benn I. Gutted at the result but expected it

And Hamed v Barrera

Hamed had one plan and that was to take him out in 2-3 rounds. Barrera ? Really ?

[Primo Carnera]

Hamed v Barrera sticks out for me too. I always thought Hamed was a bit overrated as is usual with Brit fighters. I also remember going for Calzaghe v Lacy.
with hindsight , it's hard to imagine that Barrera and Calzaghe were Underdogs.
