No...Oscar was a huge favourite, by "experts" and most fans. He actively chased the fight and was constantly talking about a bigger payday at wembley against Hatton or a Floyd rematch. There were at least 5 bigger fights financially for Oscar at the time if he really wanted to cashout, the biggest being Hatton in the UK, which is what Oscar almost constantly spoke about.
he overlooked a supreme little fighter and paid the price.
Edit: I'm not sure how much of a cash out Hopkins v Kovalev is/was, BHOP may yet fight again.

Soul's right. Oscar was favored by the majority leading up to that fight.
