Nearky as brilliant was Gaby Canizales' knockout over Sandoval. His lethal combinations reminded me of a young Roy Jones as he wreaked havoc on the unsuspecting champion, lifting the title in a monumental upset by flailing him into a coma.
Good picks.

Those are two very overlooked upset performances.

They're also a case of what goes around comes around. :lol:

Edwin Rosario TKO W in 2 over Livingstone Bramble.

Now I was young, and had just gotten over Bramble pulberizing Mancini in two fights.

I thought Bramble was going to have an easy night with Chapo. Chapo certainly fooled me, and a lot of the experts at the time. So for me, this is most shockingly brilliant performance I've seen....

My bad.

I did vote in he poll, however.

B-Hop vs. Trinidad. The local feeling was Tito had too damn much pop. Bernard taught him boxing.

Out of the three, thats my choice.

Next time, if you are going to make such a vague topic, include the classics. This is Boxers of the past, son. Aside from Hamed, the others are still active.

Next time, bother in the correct forum. And stop being condescending. You come off as a whiney prick.

The least worthwhile contribution in the thread by far.
