Default Upsets

Anyone had an upsets yet, thought i would ask since what happened in my first main event Jamie Foster vs. Lefter Oktay.

Both men are considered amongst the best so neither winning would be an upset except Foster got KO'ed in something like 50 seconds....which shocked me.

EDIT: Also had a upset earlier on the card, signed Russell McPhee cuz he had the look but his skills wern't nothin special. So i decided to test him against someone who had a mixed record. So i put him against Fatuma Roy. Russell got his ass handed to him right up to the end of the third round when he got a lucky (I presume) punch in and saved grace knocking Fatuma spark out.

I had a similar thing with Foster. Not an upset because of the opponent, but shocking in style. He was KO'd 0:23 in the 2nd by Rick Stanley.

Here Foster got knocked out as well by Lefter Oktay, 1:28 in the first round

Not a good start for Foster it seems

That's the problem with Foster, he likes to get in close and wrestle, so he's always risking getting punched in the face - not great when GAMMA have a lot of heavyweights with dynamite in their gloves!

Added a few Heavyweights from the 2005 Database I'm working on. Lefter Oktay KO'd Mirko in about 14 seconds. Just landed really flush. Surprised me.

Makes me wonder who he (Foster) was up against to only be 12-2 at the games' start. Possibly only other wrestlers?

Foster beat Stanley (unanimous decision) in mine.

Had what I think is a big upset on the same card - Lefter Oktay got beaten by Steve Mason (also by unanimous decision)

That's the assumption Authority, yes. You'll notice a couple of things:

1 - He lost his title to a big puncher in Raul Hughes

2 - He's the golden boy of GAMMA, and so likely gets protected as to what opponents he gets fed.

Although he has a tendency to get knocked out occasionally, he can be absolutely devastating if the other guy can't get punches in. Some games he tends to be absolutely dominant, some games he seems to struggle, it's an oddity that is entirely down to luck it seems.

Damn it again, 2nd game...wanted to try out a TV Special. Main Event once again Foster vs. Oktay and once again 1st round 52 seconds in bang Foster gets KO'ed again. He pinned Oktay against the cage, but once Oktay escaped one Elbow to the jaw and he's out....i think that was Oktays only move in the report lol.

Also Blurcar printed my fighters earnings and my two biggest earners both lost in the first round.....Shows GAMMA's eye for talent :P.

I don't recall ever having Foster lose to Oktay during testing so that certainly surprises me. Biggest upsets i've had both involve the same guy: Shane Gilchrist. He's not a bad fighter so I was shocked when he lost to Oscar Gomez and Manol Sirakov.

Manol Sirakov also had a winning streak that led him all the way to the Heavyweight championship, which was a string of upsets in itself, but he then went on to win the title too!
