You can say whatever about the polls, but I went on long tirades about how I thought it was ridiculous that this forum was 50/50 on the DLH-Mayweather fight prior to the bout. I don't care what they say now, they were 50/50 at fight time.

You are thinking of the Mayweather-Hatton polls, which were 60/40.

Also you forget that the entire forum was awaiting Judah-Mayweather prior to the Baldomir intrusion and many, many picked Judah to beat Floyd.

Floyd beat Corrales, who was the best Jr. Lightweight aside from himself
Floyd beat Castillo, who was the best Lightweight
Floyd beat Judah and Baldomir for the linear 147lb title (are you seriously going to tell me that in 2006 Cotto was considered Mayweather's biggest threat? HAHAHAHA)
Floyd beat De La Hoya, who was considered the best Jr. Middleweight

Some of my more impressive upset picks:

Pacquiao over Barrera
Tarver over Roy (1st fight, got it wrong, but I knew Tarver was the wrong style for him, which Antonio proved in the rematch)
Taylor over Hopkins
Judah over Spinks (called the round)
Corrales over Castillo (1s fight, called the round)

That isnt THAT good.

Pacquiao over Barrera is very good, ill give u ur props on that one i hardly even knew who Pacquiao was on that one.

But Tarver over Roy a lot of people were onto it.

Taylor over Hopkins i myself picked, and plenty of others.

Judah over Spinks is pretty good, but the odds werent rediculous or anything.

And Corrales over Castillo was hardly an upset, and guessing the exact KO round is all luck. Guessing if its early mid, or late is where the skill is.

The odds were not 3-1.

i know, they were something like +275 come fight night. which, like i said, is almost 3-1
