In many ways Dave.. you are not.. but in others you are.

As far as the list goes.....I think it's a pretty good one, but I don't really buy the #19 fight. I didn't see Randy beating Sylvia as that high of an upset.

Later.

Agreed.. now Randy FLOORING Big Tim with with one punch.. (the FIRST one even)... that WAS surprising... and that the 12inch min reach he had over Randy.. that he could do NOTHING with... that was just plain cool.

Either way, I don't see how posting that many fights can be construed as BJ bashing. Just my two lincolns.

I know, I remember that well. Very surprising since Randy was not known for having that kind of power. Very good fight for Randy and he stuck to a game plan to beat big Tim....and it obviously worked.

I highlighted the ones that were important to me that I would class as Upsets IF they involved Jens, or anyone from HIT Squad.

If I had wanted to pick on Penn...I might have highlighted all his fights...like the two where he lost against Frankie Edgar...and if it was Pro Pulver...why would I highlight the fact that of all the upsets...the one considered the worst of all highlighted was a Pulver LOSS

If I was remotely trying to do, what ive been accused of here...then im about a current short of a fruit cake arent I...how anyone can jump to that conclusion from that list, is absolutely and utterly beyond me...and I find rudeness like what was posted after that list as being unspeakably ugly...there was just no need to...what was it "pro-pulver BS" ???!! "Crybaby thread" I mean thats uncalled for, when all ive done is copied a list and highlighted those I think are important.

I dont like rudeness, and I dont like being falsly accused.

Calm down ladies!!
Mis Foxy, dont try and bring up the spanking from the last time they fought. That would just be mean.

I think the list is OK, some of the fights I can't even remember.
I wouldn't have put in the rematch of Frankie and BJ; yes, their first fight was a huge upset but, IMO, the rematch only confirmed that it wasn't as much of an upset as some people thought (so I wouldn't characterize it that way).

I don't know why but I feel like Cro Cop/Gonzaga should be higher. Frankly that fight had me literally silent. No fight before that had ever made me speechless after watching it. Even when Serra beat GSP I was cheering and clapping my hands.
