    huge boxing upsets happening left and right
    In just the past couple weeks we've seen:

    Lemieux losing to Rubio
    Kirkland losing to Ishida
    Hasegawa losing to Gonzalez
    JuanMa losing to Salido
    Berto losing to Ortiz
    Marcus Johnson losing to Dyah Davis

    Add in Maidana almost losing to Morales and Erislandy Lara being lucky to get a draw.

    Of these only Hasegawa and Berto were lower than -400. 3 went off at greater than -1K (4 if you include Lara). This has been a crazy month for boxing.

    Lots of upset and entertaining boxing matches today, Juanma deserve a rematch because it was a premature stoppage imo but certainly his weakness got exposed. Berto got too careless and that fight is FOY candidate for sure, it might have been Ortiz wanted it more. Lastly, Khan is a great fade if he faces someone that has a real punching power on his next few fights. I think im considering to buy Showtime and hbo now to watch more.

            I hadn't even heard of this... I'm not familiar with Purdy and I remember Watson beat Matthew Hatton on short notice a couple years ago but don't know anything else about him.

            Looking forward to seeing the next big upset. I can't imagine Mosley or Abraham pulling one out... maybe Dawson losing again?

                  Yesterday in Thailand, 39 year old Muhammad Rachman (who had lost 5 of his last 7 entering the bout) knocked out WBA Strawweight title holder Kwanthai Sithmorseng who was 31-0-1.

                  Didn't see a line on the fight, but it's another upset.
