This is quite easily the biggest one, but there have been some pretty big upsets in just the last couple of years in fact. A few off the top of my head are:

Pac/Oscar
B-Hop/Pavlik
Mosley/Marg
Vic/Mijares

Leonard vs Hagler was also a very big upset.

Biggest is Buster over Mike. My favorite is Pac over DLH. Man that was fun **** to watch.

I don't think Pac vs Oscar is as big an upset as people think. At the time people were picking Oscar because of size but in reality Oscar was shot.

B-hop vs Pavlik was an upset to certian degree but to put it up there with all time is stretching it. B-Hop is a dangerous opponent and I wasn't shocked he won that fight. I though it was a bigger upset for him to beat Tarver when they fought to be honest with you.

Mosley vs Marg was abig upset even though I predicted that win.

Vic vs Mijares was a big upset as well.

All time upsets though:

Douglas over Tyson
Ali over Foreman
Corrie Sanders over Klitchko
Baldomir over Judah
Holyfield over Tyson

Foreman over Moorer - The greatest night of my life when boxing is involved - God, I hate Moorer.

Rahman - Lewis I

Randy Turpin over Sugar Ray Robinson

McCall - Lewis I

What is your one favourite or most shocking upset in boxing history??

One or two spring to mind,

Rahman over Lewis and probably even Pacquiao over De La Hoya, or how about the complete destruction of Joe Frazier by Foreman.......

I can't count Pac/Oscar because I had picked Pac to win (I was the only one at my house who picked Pac, and the only one of all my boxing friends).

Buster - Tyson is the biggest I can think of.
Pac - Barrera was a big one, as was Barrera - Hammed.
