Jeff Horney ?

Yes he was expected to get ethered. Americans either pretend that wasn't the case, or a lot of these morons today weren't fans back then.

We apparently didnt care as much as the UK guys did, it was a great win for the UK i guess....a momentous occasion for a brit to win a boxing match....woo hooo, there there, we dont know about a bar being that low, even in braveheart they lost, losers mentality i guess....

In a big title fight... to overcome the odds. I’m just curious.

Racking my brain coming up with even one Douglas -Tyson, Alvarez/kovalev, Lewis Rahman/McCall type upset.

Horny against pac lol

Lots of people predicted Lacy to knock Calzaghe out, but of course things went the other way.

Massive underdog upsets don't tend to happen in general when it comes to any race. Don't really see the point of this thread...

I went to this fight and bet big on Calzaghe. They had betting windows inside the arena and even in the U.K Calzaghe was an underdog. He was always very underrated and to this day still under appreciated IMO. It's sad that his father just passed.

Among some of the biggest upsets in Boxing history was Schmeling-Louis I, Backus-Napoles I (though the master got his revenge) and some recent one's were Tszyu-Judah (another easy one to call yet he was a 3-1 dog), Hatton-Tszyu (4 or 5/1 I believe), Sanders-Wlad and Fury-Wlad. I think when Napoles lost his last fight to Stracey that was considered an upset but Napoles was an old man by then.
