Of course it ain't gonna happen. But this is boxing we are talking about. Would this constitute the upset of the year? Perhaps the decade even though the decade isn't even over yet?
How devastating would it be for Pac's confidence? After all, very few people are betting on MAB... And how bad would the Philipino people take it?
Well, the last question I don't even want to think about too much, since I happen to like Philipinnos. But anyways. :smoke

if mab kos pac, then props for him. if its a lucky shot, then good for him for having his revenge. not quite special though for winning due to lucky shot. it will sting for a while but pac fans will give whatever is due :good
it would be an upset...but we're not talking Tyson/Douglas, and MAB isn't shot and is a legend so he CAN beat Pac...Pac is on top of his game right now but let's not talk like he's a fukin prime Tyson or something...MAB has more than a legitimate chance...

Lucky punch?:huh Oh, well... I think that in order to KO Pac, you can't pull a Tarver/Jones. It will have to be an accumulation of punches. A lot of "lucky" ones landing. :yep

It would realy crush his confidence. I wonder how the Filipino people would react.

i've heard that Pac was once KOed by a jab...not exactly a granite chin...

3/1 upsets happen at least twice a year in boxing's big fights. It would will be an excellent win to Barrera, and it will not be the first time Paciquao has blown it as a warm favourite.

100 years ago. He was weak and being fed prayers and air at the time.

It's gonna be huge . . . if it happens . . . and make no mistake about it, it's a very live possibility.
Don't count out MAB just yet. :yep

according to bodog, a 2.5 to 1 upset.

Surprised it is that high, I would think a lot of late money would go on Barrera; taking it down a point or so to the 9/4-7/4 range.

It would be an upset to be sure, but certainly not of epic proportions.....

It would be huge...I am Barrera's #1 fan..and I dont think it's possible....unless it comes at the end of the night due to Pac being exhausted. Pac's stamina and recovery powers are among the best in the business, so I don't really see it happening. I am going for Barrera y decision, however.

How drunk will you get if it happens, though? That's the question we need to ponder!:hey

Huge win. And I don't want to hear anything about a lucky punch if it happens.

I agree. The odds are 6/1, means not that big of an upset if it happens.

It would be an upset, but not as big as Hatton KOing Mayweather. If Mayweather loses, it would be the Upset of the Year.
I think that is what you meant to write, and yes it would be the upset of the year.
