        No question, Douglas-Tyson (which also happens to be one of y all-time favorite fights).

        After that, I'd go with Lloyd Honeyghan's beating Donald Curry.
        Curry was an amazing fighting machine, perched to become the best lb4lber in the world.
        The untested Honeyghan came over from England & tore him apart.

            What can be a bigger upset than that?

              So SPINKS became a heavyweight champion on his 8TH FIGHT? I knew for a fact that ALI did lose to Spinks but I'm never aware of Spinks fight record.

                Tyson - Douglas hands down, at the time that Tyson seem to be the SH!+ Buster stops him, but second I would say Taylor vs Chavez

                  ??????

                  Chavez-Taylor was at just about even odds....& all the experts were split on their picks.
                  An upset wasn't possible !

                    Ok so the biggest upset is easily Tyson/Douglas....Here is a fight that I think about a lot....This fight was certainly an upset but not a super huge upset....I just rememberer how shocked I was when Terry Norris was knocked out very badly by Simon Brown, I was in shock...I knew Norris had been kayoed before by Julian Jackson but I thought that was because he was young....he was a damn good fighter when he came in against Brown and didn't look like he even belonged in the same ring with him....later they fought again and Terry boxed his way to a points victory....

                    I was never quite the same Terry Norris fan again.
