3-1 in Foreman's favour, according to a Boxing's Best documentary. I have heard as high as 7-1 mentioned.

Sorry to sound cynical, but I have to do it.

I have a feeling the odds before the fight were something like 3-1 in Foreman's favor. However, with the idolization the media has with Ali, the record books now state 50-1 odds (Sorry Buster).
