Two in a row but Baldomir beating Judah and Gatti back to back were huge upsets at the time

Siki had a huge win over Carpentier.
Carpentier was massive at the time as the fight with Dempsey was fresh in the memory.
Now he’s only really known for being mental and not ranked that high.
But it was a huge win and showed a glimpse of the toughness of the great African.

Tunney left off most ATG lists having these two wins.

Haven't seen him come too much in top 10 lists. Not in mine as well. Seems to be included too high or completely precluded.Onetimeonly wrote: ↑10 Apr 2020, 17:14I've not seen many lists without him. He's overrated at heavyweight.

Steve Cruz vs McGuigan - can't really remember what Cruz did pre McGuigan and he didn't do a lot post it.
