    That was an interesting bit of information that you have there.

    I would say Vic Darchinyan losing to Nonito Donaire. I find Vic to be cocky & he seems to enjoy toying with his opponent. That lost brought him back to earth.

    Sneer away, but I very much enjoyed seeing Sergio Mora beat Vernon Forrest.

    Winky beating Shane because Winky was underrated before then and he needed to be seen as a superstar.

    Watching him get his ass kicked was satisfying but he was still cocky as heck during the post fight interview. I think he said something to the effect that Donaire didn't hurt him and he didn't lose even though he got knocked the fuck out. lol

    Any time Wladimir Klitschko has been KO'd I have pretty much celebrated it as a national holiday.
    lol

    Mayorga beating Forrest the first time was great.

    When James Toney broke down and stopped Vasiliy Jirov that was extremely satisfying to watch, especially since the HBO broadcast team was very pro-Jirov.

    Recently when Maidana made Ortiz quit that was enjoyable to watch.

    Tyson-Holyfield I. Tyson got what he deserved especially at the press conference talking about how he was going to rape Holyfield.


    Tzyu-Phillips. Great to see an underdog really persevere and defeat an massive favorite.

    Darroll wilson spoiling and beating the crap outta Shannon Briggs on HBO...I was literally >><< for hours.Wore the tape out rewatching it.

    bigger scale but Hopkins schooling Tito and "dead man walking" Holyfield beating Tyson like a dirty rug........Juan valenzuela beating up Ricardo Williams a while ago.

    Shit, I mean, he did everything but end Jirov's career with that beating in the later rounds. Looking back a KO he may have come back from. But Toney getting the better of him over those 12 hard rounds.. And that fantastic KD... what a fight!

    Props to CutMeMick... Baldomir beating Zab was rather satisfying. He is such an arrogant prick with nothing but excuses when it comes down to it. Judah is probably the best 4 round fighter in history. How did he not win a gold metal in the olympics?

    It was an upset at the time and a big one considering what everyone on here was saying and all the boxing "experts" too were saying, and that fight was Calzaghe/Lacy. It wasn't just a win, it was a beautiful display of the most precise and dominating boxing you could ask for. It's a fight that I get great pleasure from watching; it is boxing as artistry.

    To me it was really never much of an upset and you can dig through my posts to prove me right. I knew all along that Calzaghe would be way too much and it was good to be proven right as a novice on here. I've lost a few stripes since, but that one earned me a few points. I've always got a soft spot for it.

    - Hopkins beating Tarver, I remember how peoples were saying he was too old and that getting up in weight to fight against the kingpin would be too much for him. Not that I am a huge fan of Hopkins but I sure dislike Tarver a lot.
