Abstract: "How big of an upset was James "Buster" Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson for the heavyweight title? Forget Tyson's 37-0 record. Forget his 33 knockouts, many in less than a round and in devastating fashion. Consider this: After Las Vegas posted odds of 42-1, betting was still so strong on Tyson that many sports books wouldn't accept bets on the fight."
