What are some boxing matches where the "weaker" guy beat the physically stronger guy?

[DoktorSleepless]

Ishida when he beat Kirkland. Herrera when he beat Garcia. Josesito Lopez when he beat Victor Ortiz.

[aretrospective]

Calzaghe beating Lacy. I remember the casuals tipping Lacy because he had a huge upper body compared with Calzaghe's ordinary looking body haha

When Kenny Rainford dropped Brian Sutherland. Sutherland was way stronger and way more menacing.

golovkin v martin murray

Scholar - exactly. Nice find. Lacy looks 2 or 3 weight divisions above JC easy. Just goes to show...

[soul_survivor]

martinez v chavez jr

yep! I came on this thread to type exactly that and Martinez over Pavlik.

I think Ishida beating Kirkland also comes to mind.

Almost every win involving Paulie.

Good mention of Sergio vs Jcc jr but Sergio was just a small mw he wasn't lacking in physical attributes. Hell, Sergio's entire mw run could count. Especially the Pavlik and Jr fights. They were enormous.

Same for Ruiz vs Roy Jones. Rjj is a physical freak but he wasnt exactly a real HW. Very impressive either way.

There's Rigo vs Nonito.

Floyd vs Baldomir. Floyd vs Corrales

Abril vs Rios (Im aware Rios won but lets not pretend it wasnt a robbery).

Quintana vs P Will 1

Chris Byrd vs Jameel Mcline was a funny size diff..


Chris Byrd vs Vitali...technically. Lmao


Rigo when he made Leo and Frampton flee 122
