No qualifying this one. 5 rated Kid Herman scored a SD15 over champ Johnny Kilbane (10 rated) to win the title in the LBA. Just outboxed the champ over 15 rounds!

mh2365 · 05-14-2007, 08:12 PM

Battling Levinsky (9) at pre prime and 15-0 just lost by Disqualification to a TC.

He was warned 5 times and penalized once before the fight was stopped. He had won every round. He lost 182 pp. The TC he lost to has amassed a 5-6 record though.

One of the biggest upset in my universe

when you see the Samoa Jimmy Thunder (7) beating Muhammad Ali (15) with a SD10, one of the best round is #9 both men come down!!

heres the bout log, enjjoy the read

Jimmy Thunder vs Muhammad Ali

Claybor · 06-10-2007, 11:32 PM

Zora Folley over Sonny Liston for the FFF HW title has been the biggest upset in my universe so far.

btown32 · 06-29-2007, 11:28 PM

The biggest upset probably just happened in my universe (March 1954), where Tom Sharkey (rated 8) defeated Muhammad Ali (rated 15) for the IBF Heavyweight Title. Ali was making his first title defense after beating Rocky Marciano. Ali was cut early in the 1st over the eye and the ref stopped the fight in the 3rd due to cuts.

I felt like simming a couple of fights just for fun.

When I simmed Tyson vs. Holmes (both prime), Holmes won by TKO after 2,42 in the 1st round after a complete destruction. He outlanded Tyson by 54 punches to 0!!! I allready knew from the GBA that Homes is well able to beat Tyson but I hadn't thought that he could do it like this.

Sometimes I think the game has a twisted streak the way it'll throw you a curve, having your sure-thing stumble over some washed-up pug.

About Battling Levinsky. I've been doing some reading, and there was an amazing guy. Rarely weighing more than 175, he took on hulking heavyweights and gave them a serious boxing lesson. In 1916, light-heavy Jack Dillon caused a sensation by beating Frank Moran, cutting him up badly, even though Moran, then a top heavyweight contender, outweighed him by about 40 pounds! Shortly after, Dillon boxed Levinsky over 12 and took an awful shellackin' from the New Yorker. Levinsky took every round but one, and that was called even.

Bob Satterfield (Begininning, 0) broke Ezzard Charles (Beginning, 4) undefeated record with a KO 4.

Cap · 02-04-2008, 12:40 PM

That Satterfield could punch like a sonuvabich! I could see him getting in a bomb and putting Ez's lights out.

Jack Marks ranked 101st scored a TKO over Charley Mitchell who was ranked 38th at the time. It was a 1 rated over an 8 rated fighter but in all fairness it was due to an injury.

Effectively ended any shot Mitchell had at ever getting another title shot in the LBA.

stevebydac · 02-10-2008, 11:25 PM

My fictional universe's champ for the past 2 1/2 years was 24-0-0 (7) Chris Scott. He is rated a 7. I mistakenly set-up a pretty top-heavy universe at first, lots of guys from 7 and above. Scott had defended his title 10 times, including fights against two 7s, two 9s, an 11, a 13, and a 14!! It was exciting to see him win fight after fight, often taking control in the latter rounds of close contests.

My world champ is required to fight 4x a year: a #1 contender, then a top 10, then a top 5, then he can fight a bum. Well, Scott faced his latest bum AND LOST!!

Jorge Gerpe was a 1 rated fighter, 3-20-1. He had lost his first 11 bouts, then got a draw, then lost 9 more. But all of a sudden he improved somehow winning 3 of his next four against mediocre boxers. Then came his fight with Chris Scott...

Scott was ahead and in control after 5 rounds (49-46, 49-46, 50-45), despite getting a bleeding cut over his right eye in Rd. 2. In the 6th, a round he was winning, the doc looked at the cut and stopped the fight --- TKO win for Gerpe!!!!

pittfan93 · 02-11-2008, 02:04 AM

Darryl Holley (0 prime) stops Billy Conn (9 prime) in the 7th due to a reopened cut over the left eye. Stunning! I'm still planning on watching all of Conn's fights in my universe (since we're both Pittsburgh Kids), but man, there go his hopes of making the the tourney for the vacated belts (just starting up the uni).

mh2365 · 03-17-2008, 07:40 PM

In my amateur double elimination tourney 11 rated Eusebio Pedroza loses a SD3 to a 2 rated fighter then a MD3 to a 7 rated fighter to go 0-2 in the tourney.

A 3-20-1 fighter getting a title shot? That's more ridiculous than some of the stuff that goes on in real life!

I could see fighting a guy like that as a tune up but no way the title should have been on the line.
