Has there ever been a more dominant performance as a HUGE underdog

[SCtrojansbaby]

Something was off with tarver that night, I think he was coming off an injury or sickness. A 100% tarver would beat bhop. Hell JT whooped his ass so easily two times in a row.

LOL I won't even respond to this joke of a post

the fight fitting your bill is tyson getting dominated by buster douglas
42 - 1 dog in las vegas (a place that knows something about handicapping fights)

that's absolutely unheard of

Douglas stopped him but its not quite the dominant win(Tyson knocked him down and won rounds)

Underdog according to who? And by what margin? How about Pac-DLH?

i can see what you're saying
tarver was perhaps more controlled by hopkins than tyson was by douglas until the end

but tyson got his face roughed up fierce and knocked down and couldn't get back up again


and douglas was an exponentially larger dog

hopkins was 3 to 1

No one gave B-Hop even the slightest chance.

Douglas was 42-1 against Tyson and he dominated him while looking like Muhammad Ali in there for one night, the greatest night of his life, the greatest underdog performance of all time. He did it all in the ring that night, he boxed, he punched, he overcame incredible adversity to win. Douglas, easy.

to be fair that poll was probably on nsb, where half of them probably voted bernard because its the only name they recognize


bernard was not expected to win in the media or by the bookies
he was expected to retire win lose or draw (and had announced it before the fight,) after the fight

nobody knew that the weight would effect tarver (most people thought he was basically enjoying the late prime of his career)



tarver was a 3 to 1 fav
they even mentioned it in the broadcast

Right, but he said "No one gave B-Hop even the slightest chance" and I'm proving that wasn't the case.
