Not that I would research this, but I would bet Douglas over Tyson was the biggest upset (p4p) in boxing history. Heck, it could be the biggest upset (top 3 at worst) in all of sports...

As someone posted on this site buster was able to convert his payday with holyfield into profitable real estate investments. hats off to him. The only upset that I see comparable to this in sports is when the 1980 US hockey team beat Russia.

I agree that it is not only the biggest upset in boxing, but also the biggest upset in sports history.

What were the odds on Louis-Schmeling 1? I thought that was also a big upset, the biggest upset in boxing at that time.
