A good big'n beats a good little'n. When did the good little guy win?

When has the good little guy beaten the good big guy?

Pacquiao vs Cotto, morales, de la Hoya
Duran vs Leonard 1

What other examples?

 

Dunno if the Oscar pac beat up qualifies as good.

Charlie burley vs Archie moore
Henry Armstrong vs Barney Ross

 

pacquiao is little and morales is big?

 

Yeah, Pac was a naturally bigger man than Morales.

 

Pacquiao started at flyweight. I don't see how he's naturally bigger than morales

 

I thought pac was too small to beat Barrera! Even at featherweight he looked small, it was weird

 

Roids.

 

Pac was an anorexic teenager at flyweight. He was a natural feather or maybe lightweight.

 

Vaccines?

 

ripped fuel and a tattoo needle

 

:bears:

 

Duran-Barkley
Leonard-Hagler
Spinks-Holmes 1

 

The only one that is at least semi valid.

 

I thought it was....A great small guy always beat a good bigger guy...or some shit...

 

Barkley was average...

both were GREATS

both were GREAT in their divisions lightheavy(spinks)...heavy(Holmes)..

 

WAIT a MINUTE....SLY are you trying to insinuate that PACQUIAO wasn't GREAT...but just good...GOOD above AVERAGE...A level...but NOT A1 like FLOYD...is that what you trying to imply you dirty scumb!!?!!?!?

PACQUIAO was a GREAT fighter....merely good my ding dong...he was GREAT...you unscrupulous unconscionable shyster!!!

 

CHARLATAN!!!!!! :kick:

 

I would say Duran was merely "good" at middleweight, and especially in 1989. Same with Barkley overall.

Leonard was "good" after 1982. Spinks was merely "good" at heavyweight and Holmes was an aging great who was "good" by that time.

I can't think of any examples right now of "good" smaller guys beating "good" bigger guys, all of whom were never "great".

Maybe Martinez-Pavlik? Smallish middleweight who had been a top rated 154 lb. fighter versus a big middleweight. Pavlik outweighed Martinez by 11 lbs unofficially on fight night.
