-Mayweather had a deal signed for a fight with Zab Judah for the world welterweight title before Judah's defense against Carlos Baldomir. Baldomir was such a huge underdog that Vegas didn't even have a line for this fight since it was such a mismatch. What happened? Judah ends up losing to Baldomir in possibly the biggest upset in welterweight history, but the fight between Mayweather and Judah stills happens.
-DLH had a deal in place to face Bernard Hopkins for the middleweight championship. Both men had to just get by tune up opponents first. Hopkins held up his end of the deal by beating Robert Allen in a lopsided decision. DLH, on the other hand, comes in fat as hell and underestimates Felix Sturm on his way to a decision he clearly did not deserve.
Now we have DLH about to face a 20-1 underdog as a tune up for a Mayweather rematch. Can history repeat itself?
