@andrewr62 It was an upset.
Robinson was a big favorite to beat Pender.

Upset???? Ray Robinson won his first title in 1946 this is 1960. Ray was 39 and veteran of well over 100 fights. To say Ray was way past his best is an understatement. Not taking anything away from Pender but this can hardly be called on upset.

Ray did most of grabbing, look again.
-
Ali got a lot of that clutch-and-grab style from SRR. He was doing most of the holding here and deserved to lose. Long live Paulie Pender.

@BooBooLane Terry beat Paul in the first match and Paul regained the title in the rematch
