    That list is a bit inconsistent.

    Although underdogs, some of the guys you mentioned were good enough to give ANYONE a decent fight in their pomp.

    Im not saying they couldn't but i meant on paper "before" the fights that most people didn't think they would trouble them on paper.

    Yeah I know what you mean.

    But the difference is -

    Ray Close vs Chris Eubank = surprise cause Close was average at best

    Lloyd Honeyghan vs Donald Curry is different. Although a massive upset Honeyghan was world class.

    I understand what your saying but remember no one knew Honeyghan was world class before the fight, and since Curry was P4P number 1. I assume most boxing fans wouldn't of gave Honeyghan a chance, but point taken i know what your saying.

    Asumah Nelson v Mcdonald is a good one or Ali v Norton, they should have beaten them a lot easier but for some reason had problems with their style of boxing. The same could be said of Paq and Marquez, although Paq for some reason gets the decisions.
