    Your favorite upset in recent times?

    There are plenty to choose from, Litzau-Caballero or Salgado pwning Linares in just 1. The one I'm really inclined to go with is Algieri-Provodnikov.

    You have to understand for those who've actually stepped in the gym as to how much you have to learn in this game. Kickboxing and boxing are not the same things and that you just stop using your legs and bamm you're a boxer now.

    Algieri got up from knockdowns and boxed with a shut eye. Now factor in this guy switched sports as an adult and learned on the job makes it extra special. Interestingly, he only fought for the title in just his 20th fight. You have guys like Brook or Rios who've boxed all their lives to get a shot after 30 plus bouts ffs.

    Hence, why the collegian warrior's World title triumph is very inspirational and my favorite upset of recent times.

      Most recently I'd have to go with Provodnikov-Algieri.

            Damn, I guess you didn't like that one. How about when Garcia gave Khant bambi legs? I like that upset too.

                Maidana/Broner. I must have watched that fight about 25 times and laughed my azz off every time.

                  At least wait until Algieri Khan is confirmed before trying to elevate him to god like status.
