Name a bum that beat a good fighter?

[ИATAS]

Buster Douglas>>>>Mike Tyson probably the biggest upset in boxing history

Buster wasn't a bum though, he was a contender. He was coming off wins against Oliver McCall, Trevor Berbick and Mike Williams.

Hasim Rahman to Lennox Lewis

Rahman caught a ****y Lennox with a hard shot, while Lennox was stupidly showboating

Lewis wasn't showboating...he got pushed into the corner and got caught with a right hand trying to turn out of the corner.

Leon Spinks beat Ali
Danny Green beat RJJ

I dont think losses where the ¨good fighter¨ was absolutely past prime should count

when you are shot to ****, you cant be considered a ¨good fighter¨ anymore

Lewis wasn't showboating...he got pushed into the corner and got caught with a right hand trying to turn out of the corner.

He was trying to pull some Sweet Pea defensive moves on the overmatched Rahman, moves that had never been part of his skillset (and almost impossible for a man his size), that's underestimating your opponent and showboating

Leon Spinks beat Ali
Danny Green beat RJJ
Stevenson got KOed by Boone

Spinks wasn't a bum though. He was an Olympic gold medalist. Plus Ali was past prime. So was Jones.

Boone is a career journeyman for sure, but I wouldn't call him a bum either. He's proved to be a tough test for many fighters, including Kovalev and Andre Ward.

Rustico Torrecampo and Medgoen Singsurat. Both KO'd Pacquiao.

I agree that bum is harsh for these guys. A bum to me has a really bad losing record but for this practice its fair to call someone who is 23-22-4 a bum otherwise no one has lost to a true bum.

Ross Purity over Wladimir Klitschko..... the journeymen of the 90s were so much better.

How did he beat them?

Balderthal, beat Zab Judah. He beat him with a relentless pursuit and a ton of heart. His primitive skillset and crude boxing, should not have been able to touch Judah.

Max baer vs james braddock

I think it was more down to lewis not being in shape, and not being physically ready to react to his opponent. It was a nice shot and was set up well. Full credit to rahman.
