My biggest Titlebout upset ever was with the board game in 1979 or 1980 when everyone's favorite board game marshmallow Mel Turnbow KO'd Joe Frazier in the second round. It was unusual to have Mel even reach the 2nd round of a fight, but to actually win against someone like Frazier was unthinkable. Twenty-five years later and I still remember my amazement as I double and triple checked the cards to make sure I hadn't messed up.

In TBCB my biggest meaningful upset would probably be Lou Savarese stopping a prime Ali in the 5th round to win the heavyweight championship. At the time, Ali was undefeated and had defended the title a record 19 times.
