[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

At the Mid-Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, the ring return of heavyweight Kevin McBride (34-7-1, 29 KOs), best known for being the last man to fight, and beat Mike Tyson - was upset by Zack Page (21-29-2, 7 KOs) over an eight round fight. Page outworked the much bigger McBride to win the fight with a clear unanimous decision. The judges scored it 80-82, 80-72 and 78-74. McBride was returning after being away from the ring for over two years and change. He may go back into retirement.

No surprise, I knew Page would defeat McBride. When I read Zack was replacing Hawkins, I thought McBride's management was making a mistake.

Zack Page has been fighting very good opposition, and he's MUCH better than his record indicates. Last year, Zack gave Kubrat Pulev his trickiest fight so far, and he defeated HW up-and-comer Sebastian Koeber by MD.

Well done, Zack!

One may look at Page`s record and think that he is a journeyman, but he is a very tough goalkeeper. I`ve always said he reminds me of Emmanuel Augustus.

Ha, told ya so! Good job, Zack.

That fight wasn't an upset. Anyone who pays attention to heavyweight boxing knows that McBride sucks and Page is way better than his record. Nobody would bet you because nobody in their right mind would bet on McBride, it wasn't even an upset, much less one that was big enough to warrant bragging.

Plus if you don't bet real money on it, then it doesn't count.

I bet $250 of real money on Zuri Lawrence over Albert Sosnowski at 10-1 odds and also $75 on Bredies Prescott over Amir Khan at 16-1 odds.

I also had $2500 on Wladimir Klitschko over Sam Peter when he was a 2.5-1 underdog when the betting opened.
