    Mosley vs Margarito. I thought Margarito was going to kill Mosley.

    Hopkins vs Tarver. I thought Tarver was going to win comfortably maybe even stop Hopkins.

      Haye vs Klitschko - I thought Haye would catch him in the middle rounds.

      Mayweather vs Maidana - I thought Floyd would destroy him.

      Margarito vs Cotto I - I thought Cotto would have bad spots but I thought he would box and win a clear decision. But when Margarito stunned him a little in the 2nd round I knew he was in trouble.

        Carlos Quintana vs Paul Williams.

        Quintana was known as good fighter around then w only loss coming to Cotto but at that time Williams was fighting at 147/154 and Style wise reminded me of Tommy Hearns of the era.

              The final Pac vs Marquez fight stands out to me. Between the weight and ages of the fighters I thought this was easily one fight too many for Juan. I had given him the win in each previous fight but I thought he had slowed down just enough to get beaten pretty emphatically in the final fight. To my credit he was looking rough before the fight ended. But Jesus Christ what an ending. Also, as another poster mentioned above I thought Mosley was walking into a slaughter against Margarito. I figured he would just get walked down by a man he couldn't hurt. Morales vs Marcos was a shocker to me. Erik may be my favorite fighter ever but he was beyond done at that point and fighting WELL above a good weight for him. He fought his ass off that night. Forrest vs Mayorga really surprised me. How could such a polished boxer lose to that guy not once but twice? The second fight was actually really close if I remember correctly, but I thought he would have a field day with a crude clown like Mayorga. Tszyu and Hatton was another one. I didn't see how Ricky would win that fight. He was too hittable and Kostya was so hard hitting and accurate. Ricky fought the fight of his life that night. Also, seems silly now, but I thought Kessler would beat Ward. Too good and too experienced for someone as untested as Ward. I didn't like how Ward chose to fight to win, but thats the refs job (or Kesslers) to make him change it. Ward dominating the Super Six so easily was an eye opener to me.

                This thread is why boxing is my favourite sport. Nobody knows what is going to happen, there’s some absolute stinkers but some corkers too.

                  Matthysse vs. Garcia is the one that immediately came to mind. I was almost sure Matthysse would KO him, but Garcia showed he has one of the best chins in Boxing. I'm hoping they can fight again at 147 sometime soon if Matthysse gets another win or two at welterweight.

                  Pacquiao vs. Horn I guess you can say due to the result. But I thought Pacquiao won clearly & most others do too so maybe it doesn't count.

                  Matthysse vs. Postol I was sure Matthysse would win. I didn't really know anything about Postol before the fight though to be fair so I figured Matthysse would win by KO/TKO.

                  Haye vs Bellew. I didn't see the fight live but when I read the result of Haye losing I was completely shocked. I was sure Haye would win.

                      Tyson vs Holyfield

                      SRL vs HEARNS biggest shocker for me.

                      PAC vs Marquez 4

                      Donaire vs Rigo

                      khan vs Garcia the no look left hook

                      PAC vs Oscar. I just thought Oscar was trying to get a cheap win with a big name.

                      RJJ vs Tarver both fights. RJJ officially lost his aura of invincibility on the first fight.

                      TBE vs coralles. I thought Floyd could pull off a win but not run over coralles!
