that's the one that immediately sprang to mind

Oliver McCall

Max Schmeling beating Louis

Zahir Raheem beat Erik Morales , but overall his career just went no where.

Great call

Bentt knocking out Morrison

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

Huh?

Jorge Vaca , won WBC welterweight title against Lloyd Honeyghan. Possibly best win , also beat Pipino Cuevas, Mark Breland, Quincy Taylor.

Remembered more for being a journeyman type boxer

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.

I've not seen many lists without him. He's overrated at heavyweight.

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.

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

Yeah, that's a good one.

Prescott beating Khan, and Sam beating Williams. I half-expected the former, but the latter was a shocker at the time.
