Best under-dog win in boxing history???

[Kball15]

would u guys consider (now here me out here) Oscar de la hoyas victory over Ricardo Mayorga a big upset? After a 2 year layoff, i didn't have him winning that fight. some thought there was no way he could lose though...

OR is DLH's first win over JCC considered a big upset?

[kerrminator]

Harris v Maussa

Curry v Honeyghan

Lewis v Rahman

Pac v Barrera

Baldomir v Judah

Marquez v Chris John

[Hard Boiled HK]

Don't know if it had been mentioned before, but Ken Norton vs. Muhammad Ali I is one of the greatest upset for sure.

[czars_salad]

ali-liston should also be in the list

[magicjordan]

douglas vs tyson
pacquiao vs barrera
baldomir vs judah

THe biggest upset of this month is Joel Julio and Quantine

[AREALFIGHTER]

how can you call Liston-Clay the biggest upset around considering what Ali went on to do. Baldomir is probably going to lose his next fight just like Douglas lost his next fight. That's why Tyson-Douglas still stands as the biggest upset ever...BECAUSE DOUGLAS ******. And Baldomir most likely sucks. Ali was undefeated when he fought Liston so how is that some huge upset? BALDOMIR HAS NINE LOSSES. NINE. That's more than any elite fighter ever comes close to having in a career. Was Taylor beating Hopkins a huge upset? **** no.

Because no one gave Clay a chance in hell to win that fight he was a huge underdog some boxing writers were saying that this was indecent that they did not want to see a guy beat to death in the ring. There was a huge stigma about Liston he was a man who took care of buisness and this trash talken young punck was pissing off the wrong guy.

Was just doing some research, baldomir-judah was about 12:1 odds. I knew they were big but I thought they were closer to 8:1.

It still pales in comparison as if memory serves me right Douglas was a 25:1 dog.

I thought it was 40-1

[Dirt E Gomez]

I thought it was 40-1

It ended at 42:1 or so but opened at 25:1 because everybody believed it was a sure thing. Entirely too much betting on Tyson's side so bookies kept moving the line to cover their losses better. Bookies 1 Public 0.

Leon Sphinks defeating Muhamad Ali for the heavy weight title should be better than Baldo beating Zab.

i met a homeless guy about a month ago who told me his uncle had bet him a million dollars ali would beat spinks and he took the bet and his uncle never paid up. he finished the story by saying "i could be rich right now..."
