i thought prince nassem vs barrera was bit of a shame,,, people dont really know what went on behind naz,s camp. if naz had his head and camp in order naz would have been one of the best ever !!

Micheal Bentt over Tommy Morrison was a huge upset.

Great recollect, great vids.
One of the biggest upset to me is Leon Spinks, in only his eighth pro HW fight, beating Ali in 1978. Back then, I never give Spinks any chance.

I would have to say Tyson vs Douglas in my time. No one thought Douglas stood a chance.

DLH was weight drained and also off form, scraping a win against steve forbes in his bout prior to pacquiao, look how white DLH was with pacquiao, n DLH is a mexican american, c'mon, im scottish and i know manny likes braveheart, so i love him for that and hes an awesome fighter,

tyson-holyfield 1 was a big upset too. everybody thought holyfield, who had heart problems at that time, might get killed in the fight.
but as we know, things were different....
