The reason stories exist of the underdog winning, is because the underdogs lose almost all the time.
Also, David basically brought a gun to a knife fight against Goliath. Seems like Goliath should have been considered the underdog :3

Its been suggested that the combat could have been a ritualistic slaughter. Much like the Gladiator Ring was ritualized slaughter, to appease the masses.
