    To me it was Mosley, I gave Hopkins a much better chance at winning but neither was really a huge upset to me, I said before both fights that I wouldn't be surprised if they won.

      I picked both fights right but on topic Hopkins was fighting a guy coming up in weight who was relatively new to the world scene (still a amazing win btw)

      Mosley was moving down in weight to fight the guy that last beat Cotto (who beat Shane) he was an established world champ so I'd say Mosley but It doesn't mean Hopkins win wasn't amazing

        Yeah, they are damn close imo... You hate to even choose one to discredit the other... but if I HAD too, id pick shane... I didn pick hopkins to win, but felt he had a better chance of winning then Shane did IMO

          I didn't expect for either guy to win, but I said anything was possible. But Mosley knocked out a guy, whom a lot of people believed couldn't be even hurt.

            As shocking as tonight was, and it was very shocking, I'm going with B-hop.

            PAVLIK WAS 17 YEARS YOUNGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 43 VS. 26 lol

              In my opinion Shane Mosley.

              I thought Hopkins-Pavlik would end up being a close fight but I did not expect Hopkins to dominate and look that good at 43 years of age.

              Mosley went even further, dominated nearly every round and actually knocked down and stopped Margarito which by many was thought to be impossible.

              I did think that Mosley had a chance to win but not like that.

                I voted even, almost 90% of all the people thought that Kelly and Tony would win. Big upsets. anyway, you should have also included Pac, it was also a big upset imo.

                  For me , both wasn't really an upset cause I picked both Bhop and Mosley to win their fight.
                  Pac vs Oscar was the real upset.
