    I thought Thurman would beat Pacquiao.

    Duran would lose to Iran Barkley

    Foreman would beat Ali.

    Donald Curry would beat Lloyd Honeyghan. (That was a real shocker)

      The Blade beating Tommy Hearns was awesome. Never expected that one.

      Sanders destroying Wlad Klitschko was out of nowhere too.

      Gettin all historical and ****.

        I thought Joe Louis was going to beat Max Schmeling easy in the first fight and I thought Ray Robinson would beat Randy Turpin in the first meeting between the two. I lost money on both of them fights.

            I thought windmill would ko fury after his horrid performances.
            I wanted sergio to beat cotto that was more of a biased pick than actually using my head.
            Also lara and golovkin, lol @ me for thinking they can get a decision against canelo

              DLH was the favorite and Pac was moving up. As soon as they said he gained 2 pounds after the weigh in, was doing an IV and looked like a skeleton, I knew I was in trouble.

                I predicted Cotto would beat Pacquiao.
                After round 1, i was even more confident that my prediction would come true.
                Then Pacquiao showed something special, and made me a fan.
                I was very impressed with his ability that fight

                  Most recently I picked Hooker over Ramirez. Had I heard about him getting stopped sparring and his insistence on exchanging rather than playing to his strengths I wouldn't have bet one red cent on him... but my son earlier that day found some random curved stick he called his "hooking" stick and I like to bet on the underdog so I took it as a sign.... well it was a sign that Hooker was gonna get hooked in hindsight.

                    I hear you. I'm still hurting over the Barbados Joe Walcott draw against Philadelphia Jack O'Brien. I was expecting money in that fight.

                      Diego beats Floyd back in the day feels extremely off now, but that was a near 50/50 fight at the time & Floyd was fresh off his worse showing vs journeyman Emanuel Augustus.
                      Kovalev was hurt but he survived until the break, and came in well regrouped in the 9th.

                      I was quite surprised at Kova’s second wind in 9th through 11th.
