    Yeah there have been a few quality upsets so far this year. Makes things really interesting for the sport imo, forces you to try and look into upcoming matchups as much as possible, look for things you wouldn't have first thought about. Also reminds me to never criticize a big underdog for wanting to fight the best, they always see something we don't. I want to go out on a limb and pick the next great upset of this year but I can't think of a good possibility at the moment.

    The casa fight was looking like an upset when kats started coming back, only to have casa turn it round again.. So he dodged the upset and it turns out a classic, cant be mad at this.. gotta loveee the boxing

    Rees wasn't an upset. Vegas had him as the substantial underdog. You all just wanted him to win.

    I always felt Juan Diaz was underrated.. When he was just the wbo champion fighting no named game fighters i thought he was one of the best and liked the guy, but stil gave him littl chance against frietas.. he done frietas, i knew he would have Julio Diaz but he looked better then i expected, was entertaining.. Then instead of going downhill he gets upset and falls of the cliff.. i dont think he was every really rated highly enough to say he was over rated alot of people i think kept it real and admitted he was good.. but didnt give him enough props to hype him too much
