What bookies offer betting on Boxing?
Every major bookmaker will offer some form of betting markets on Boxing. It's one of the major world sports and millions of pounds are bet on it annually.
What are some Boxing Betting Basics?
Most fights will include basic markets such as Winner, Method of Victory and Round Betting. Obviously the bigger the fight, the more markets will be offered. A fight such as the recent Heavyweight fight between Tyson Fury And Deontay Wilder would potentially have had dozens of markets.
What is Round Betting?
Round betting is a market offered by most major bookmakers where you can bet on a particular boxer to win in a specified round. E.g. Floyd Mayweather to win in round 9. There is also grouped round betting where you can back a set of rounds for a boxer to finish the fight in. E.g. Saul Alvarez to win in rounds 1-3.
What methods of victory can you bet on?
There are a few ways of winning a fight in boxing and most of these are covered in the Method of Victory market. The options tend to be split into KO (knockout)/TKO (technical knockout)/DSQ (Disqualification) , Decision/Technical Decision and Draw/Technical Draw.
These are explained below:
KO: The most spectacular finish in boxing. One boxer knocks another boxer down or out and the stricken fighter is unable to continue or beat the 10 count.
TKO: A technical knock out is when a referee believes that a boxer is unable to continue in the fight safely and brings an end to the fight. The fighter may still be on their feet but is unable to defend themselves. It can also be deemed a TKO when a fighter is cut badly by a cut and is deemed unable to continue by the doctor/referee.
DSQ: The fight may be stopped by disqualification. If one fighter is consistently and fragrantly breaking the rules of the sport then the fight may be stopped by the referee and awarded to the other fighter. Rules broken may include biting, headbutting or hitting low/on the back of the head.
Decision: A decision victory is when the fight reaches its conclusion and either the referee (in minor fights) or three independent judges (in major fights) decide who has won the fight. They generally work on a ten point must system where the best fighter in each round receives 10 points and the other fighter 9 points. Points are deducted for knockdowns/comprehensively won rounds and infringements such as low blows. It's sometimes referred to as a points victory. E.g. Anthony Joshua on points.
An example of a scorecard could look like this: Mayweather 115-113 116-112 117-111 Alvarez. This would be termed a unanimous decision. Other examples are a majority decision (where a fighter will win on two judges cards and draw on the other) and a split decision (winning on two cards and losing on the other).
Technical Decision:
A technical decision is a term used when a fight has to be stopped due to an unintentional headbutt and the ringside judges hand in their partially completed scorecards. Usually the fight will have had to go past the fourth round for a technical decision to take place. If it's prior to this then the fight will be deemed a no contest.
Draw:
A draw takes place when the judges are unable to split the two fighters on the scorecards. Variations of the draw are a unanimous draw (all three judges have the score level), Split draw (one judge picks one fighter, one judge the other and the final judge a draw) and a majority draw (two judges have the fight as a tie and the third judge has one fighter winning)
Technical Draw:
A technical draw is when a fight is stopped due to an accidental injury(usually a cut). The judges go to the scorecards and if the scores are tied as above then the fight is called a technical draw.
Can you bet on the fight winner and method of victory?
Yes, this is a common market offered by most bookmakers. E.g. Carl Froch to win by Decision/Technical decision.
