This is what I was thinking.

Margarito vs P Will...Marg was supposed to be the terminator (do not remember the odds though..)
Nah, Williams had some buzz about him during that time and a lot of people thought Tony was going to ignore him and go straight for Cotto.
Tyson v Douglas is prob one of the worst. Silly Odds.
Judah v Baldomir was a big one. Judah already signed the Floyd PPV even before the fight took place, and Baldomir was supposed to be just an easy tune up.
Ortiz v Lopez. Lopez was supposed to get dismantled.
Khan v Garcia was another one, Khan was supposed to showcase his boxing skills and got KTFO.
For more recent ones, minus Tyson's which was huge.
Michael Grant vs. Dominick Guinn smh
Michael Moorer vs. George Foreman. Big George was coming off a loss and really wasn't expected to beat Moorer. It was supposed to be a good 1st defense against an older legend.
Edit: How could I forget Lewis vs. Rahman!
Wasnt Berto supposed to beat Ortiz?
Likewise for Juanma vs Salido
Mike Jones vs Bailey does that count?
Margarito vs P Will...Marg was supposed to be the terminator (do not remember the odds though..)
pacquiao vs bradley
De la Hoya vs Felix Sturm
Paul Williams vs Carlos Quintana
Wladimir Klitschko vs Corey Sanders
Adrien Broner vs Ponce De Leon
Lennox Lewis vs Oliver Mccall
Vitaly Klitschko vs Chris Byrd
Michael Moore vs George Foreman
pacquiao vs bradley
Bradley was the no.1 Jr Welterweight, in his prime and undefeated. It wasn't supposed to be an easy touch.
Anyway maybe Mosley v Margarito, the former didn't look impressive in his previous fights and looked to be on his way out.
