Barrera beating Hameds arrogant butt and ramming his head into the corner post was 1 to remember.
Barrera beating Hameds arrogant butt and ramming his head into the corner post was 1 to remember.
Some of my personal favorites...
Baldo beating Zab
Nonito beating Vic
CQ beating Paul
Baldomir beating Judah. Then Judah blaming Don King fucking priceless.
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?

- and I quote from some random guy on the internet
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.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
Hopkins vs. Trinidad. best performance of the decade.
Frankie Randall beating Julio Cesar Chavez. Not that I particularly disliked Chavez, but between the Meldrick Taylor incident and the Pernell Whitaker draw, it seemed the judges/refs weren't ever going to allow Chavez to lose a fight unless somebody knocked him out. Randall didn't dominate JCC, but he did enough to where he couldn't be denied.
Courtney Burton KO'ing Angel Manfredy. Again, I didn't dislike Manfredy, but it was cool watching a guy like Burton who'd been through some adversity realize his dream in front of you like that. You could tell that fight meant everything to him and he got the job done.
I like 99% of upsets, because I always cheer for the underdog.
Tyson going down to Douglas was a thrill at the time.
Did lennox good getting sparked.
Ivan over Atturo.

Brewster beating Wlad, that was satisfying.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
