    A few times.

    Tyson - Douglas was 42-1.

    It might not have been quite as wide as 40-1, I can't be ****d to look up a source (but that's what I've read), but Pac was an unknown Filipino fighter with 2 losses on his record from other unknown fighters, and Ledwaba was the next big thing.

    Watch the fight, it's excellent.

    To be fair. He should win this poll. Barrera p4p ranks as an ATG. So knocking him out is significant.

    How about the power?
    How about pfp ranking at the time of the fights in question?
    Who was undefeated and who took two L's to a good not great fighter?

    I think it was more like 10:1 or 15:1. Ledwaba would never command 40:1 odds
